NRL great Andrew Johns has got a new man crush and his name is Jamie Humphreys, with the Rabbitohs recruit making jaws drop on and off the field.
Humphries starred on Saturday in the Bunnies’ 25-24 comeback win over the Dragons as he locks down the halfback role at the club.

The former Sea Eagle got the nod at halfback in round 1 with English recruit Lewis Dodd suspended.
But after putting in a strong performance against the Dolphins he held onto the No. 7 jersey even with Dodd cleared to return in round 2.
And once again on Saturday, he led from the front as Bennett’s Bunnies claimed a last-gasp victory thanks to a Humphreys field goal to start the season an unlikely 2-0.
“He’s very confident in himself,” Bennett said of Humphreys after the match.
“He doesn’t see anything as a challenge. He’s goalkicking, doing all our long kicks, and kicked the field goal today.
“We haven’t put him under pressure and there’s been no lack of trust or confidence in what he’s doing.”
And while Johns was impressed with him and Souths’ performance without superstars Latrell Mitchell and Cam Murray, he was even more blown away with the halfback’s rig.
“Is he single?” Johns inquired after seeing a picture of him shirtless on the Sunday Footy Show.
When informed he was in fact on the market Johns said: “Look out the DMs.”
And the NRL legend is not the only one blown away with his physique.
“He looks like Iron Man,” Humphreys Souths teammate Keaon Koloamatangi said earlier this week, joking that no one would beat the halfback in an arm wrestle.
“He’s really good, he’s not much of a talker off the field, but on the field, he talks a lot and mainly leads with his actions.”
While he’s not the loudest guy, Junior Tatola was equally impressed with his composure on the field and how he looks after his body.
“His calmness (impressed me the most). He’s quite calm out there and he doesn’t really say much, but the way that he took over and guided everyone and told us middles where to go was a big thing for him,” Tatola said.
“Away from the field, he’s pretty calm. He doesn’t say too much, but he’s pretty professional with the way he does things and looks after his body.
“You can tell that because he’s got a good rig on him.”
