HE promised he would come back 'stronger than ever' in 2019 and now Warrington Wolves youngster Jack Johnson has plenty to smile about.

The full back posted on Instagram one year to the day after a horrific injury sidelined him that he's now 'fully fit' to play again.

The 22-year-old snapped his tibia and fibula during a training session but says after two operations, countless x-rays, scans and hours spent on the physio bed he's now recovered.

His post thanked everyone who had helped him at the club including his 'rehab buddy' Ben Currie.

He added: "Cheesy smile alert.
