When Eric Johnson joined St George DCC in 1937, having previously played with the Marrickville Club, no one could have anticipated the impact he was to have over the next 5 decades.

Eric played the majority of his cricket over the next ten years in second and third grades, with the occasional appearance in first grade when the legendary Ernie Laidler was unavailable. He still holds the club record for most dismissals in a second grade season, 1942/43, of 45, including an extraordinary 33 stumpings, undoubtedly influenced by the presence of spinners, Ernie Green 111 wickets and Mick Favell 52 wickets as the team won the premiership.
