ANDREW Johns has called on the Wests Tigers to make sure Luke Brooks and James Tedesco play out their careers together, with the rugby league Immortal declaring "it is like watching Langer and Walters".
Despite playing only four games together, the Brooks-Tedesco combination has everyone in the game talking them up as the game's next superstar combination after another starring performance in Friday night's upset win over premiership heavyweights South Sydney.
Tedesco is off contract at the end of the season and there is growing speculation that the Roosters are on the verge of announcing that they have won the race to sign the NRL's most exciting young fullback.
The Bulldogs are also in the market for a top quality fullback and they have big money to spend.
Wests Tigers chief executive Grant Mayer said yesterday his information was that Tedesco has not committed to a rival club.

Tedesco is managed by Sam Ayoub, who also looks after Wests Tigers skipper Robbie Farah.
"He is hot property, I get that," Mayer told The Daily Telegraph.
"But these things don't take three seconds to fix. Negotiations are ongoing so there is nothing to confirm one way or another.
"There is much speculation but at this stage we are not even close to announcing anything."
But asked directly if he was certain that Tedesco hadn't signed elsewhere, Mayer added: "I am not going to play it out in the press.
"We have had ongoing dialogue with his management and we are confident that the Wests Tigers are still in the game to retain James Tedesco."
Matthew Johns yesterday likened the Brooks-Tedesco combination to "Cooper Cronk and Billy Slater" on Triple M — while Andrew Johns added they could make an impact at club and representative level like Allan Langer and Kevin Walters did for Brisbane and Queensland.

Andrew Johns gave Tedesco three Dally M votes for his man of the match effort on Friday night while Brooks finished with one vote after another dynamic game where both players were targeted heavily.
Johns said on Channel Nine's Sunday Footy Show: "You know what, this is only the fourth game they have played together. It is like watching Langer and Walters together and some of the great combinations, they are on the same wave length, they know what each other is going to do.

"I just hope they play their whole career out together.
"I'd love to see them playing, without getting ahead of themselves, at this level, club level, and maybe representative level together.
"They have got to stay together and I hope the Wests Tigers do that.
"I hope their fans get on board and buys memberships that brings money into the club."
