More highlights at marathonstadium.com
This was the best performance i have ever seen by one man on in an NRL game.
@MAN UTD Free Neddy Smith!
Lol well you havent seen too many games have you now?
Enter Mitch Moses game 2, 2024.
Johns retiring from Origin is what sparked QLD winning streak
Yes 1000000% right spot on, his the 🐐👍👍👍👍👍....there wouldn't be a QLD WINNING STREAK. if the maestro didn't retire, that's AJ MAGIC...
Joey is the GOAT.
@@nathanwhite3953 No question. He won games by himself. QLD dominance later required Smith, Thurston and Cronk working together.
@@jagobbin2 Yep..three to one...
Not really Qld got better n better NSW peaked remember this is a 13 man game not a 1 man game... lol
Andrew Johns legacy is that he changed the game of rugby league permanently. Before Johns almost all tries were scored through the hands not through kicks. Johns revolutionised the game through introducing a wide range of different attacking kicking options. It got to the point a few years after the trend Johns started that so many tries were scored by kicks they considered lowering the points of a try by a kick, and having a higher score for a try through the hands.
We take it for granted now that attacking kicking options are just a natural part of the game and don't think twice about it. But watch old video clips of rugby league and you'll see very few kicks from kicks. Maybe the odd grubber here or there, or chip, but nothing like there is now. I mean even the Wallabies hired Johns to help them with kicking and you see more attacking kicking in Rugby Union than there used to be.
Matt Konig You obviously never saw Peter Sterling play
Mr Burns come on mate. He’d be the first one to say he’s not on joeys level and that’s a fact
Zmart 30 I'm not talking about ability, I'm talking about Sterlo's kicking game.
Mr Burns sterlo didn’t have the banana kick which Joey improved upon from Ricky Stuart. Plus sterlo wasn’t a goal kicker either which gives another advantage for Joey in terms of his talent
It got to the point a few years after the trend Johns started that so many tries were scored by kicks they considered lowering the points of a try by a kick, and having a higher score for a try through the hands. - this is a lie, never heard such rubbish in all my life.
That pass to Bedsy was crriiiisp, Johns is definitely the 🐐
Back here in 2020. I'd just moved to Australia when NSW were trailing from the first game. All the talk was Joey is coming back for the 2nd game. I wondered what the fuss was about but it didn't take long for me to realuse his greatness. Single best performance in a team sport I've ever seen.
Andrew Johns was the greatest player of all time. Excellent kicking game, his defence and attack was spot on too. Joey could make something out of nothing. A mile in front of all the greats. What a career! What an absolute champion.
+Ocean Runner i agree, he 'was' but now there is a person who 'is' and that's johnathan thurston
Fuller.GuitarLessons But Thurston didn't have anyone taking his spot - Brett Kimmorley, Trent Barrett etc etc
Fuller.GuitarLessons So New South Wales select the Australian team as well?
Fuller.GuitarLessons Lol he was getting out played, i'm sure they are bad at 'selecting' dally m halfback's of the year as well. Also how Freddy, Langer, Lam, Kimmorely and Barrett keep Johns at Hooker or on the bench for most of his test career. Never seen anyone do that to Thurston after his breakout year in 2005.
Fuller.GuitarLessons Lol you loss the plot. Johns is a NSW poster boy. They tried to do it again with Mitchell Pearce. Everyone knows Johns isn't and Johns himself knows it well. Heck, his brother came out and said his brother is not the best. What did you expect Thurston to say infront of a Dally M crowd? "Nah he's shit mate" Lol Brad Fitler held his spot as soon as he came into the scene. Johns has two highlights in rep footy, the 2005 game 2 and 3 and getting knocked out by Jamie Goddard, quoted by Johns himself in State of Origin 30 year anniversary DVD. And it's not "so what if the selectors didn't pick him" - it tells the story of his over hyped career. The guy has 1 his premiership tarnished by drugs, it's his first one where a handful of players were caught and fined for performance enhancing drugs before that next season is played. 2 premierships under the super league war. What Johns did in 2005 happened to him ten fold by Langer and Lockyear in late 90's and Thurston and Smith been doing it since 2006. Johns only able to do in flashes. There is heaps of NSW fans that say Johns did not deserve 8th immortal, and going off all his off field antics since, they were right. You can't give that status only for what they did on the field, that status also bares the face of the game. You think people and kids will look immortals list and see Johns there, they will see - racist, drunk, druggie and fraud.
Man this song suites origin so much
JT didn't have the same strength as joey in defence. Andrew Johns is one of the best defensive halfbacks of all time.
2024 and I still don’t think anyone has ever matched Joey’s kicking game
I was brought up in melbourne but have grown to like rugby league. This bloke may be the best I’ve seen.. that last try how he wrong footed pretty much the entire Queensland defence, then flicked a perfect ball between two defenders to a teammate for a try... that was remarkable.
The glory days. Johns & Minichiello... I could cry :(
My wife got us tickets to this game for our anniversary and we drove up from Wagga. Glad I got to witness the Joey Johns show. Pretty special game this one.
Being a pom I have to say I'm one of the lucky ones to actually have seen Andrew Johns in his prime and I think I can speak for all British Rugby League fans when we say "We wish he was British".... fucking brilliant player!!!
Proper Origin Masterclass!
best single performance in the history of the nrl. perfect 10.
Best video on youtube mate.. Joey was a privilege to watch.. He is the player I'll tell the grandkids about, and he will forever be the best player of all time. A revolutionary of the game. He changed it himself. Thanks for the video mate
Yeah he was amazing to watch! i love watching people off their face!
and your right i will be telling my grand kinds about him, when i talk to them about the use of drugs.
And he really did revolutionise the game, he found a way to get through the drug tests.
What a great guy! .......
HAHAHAHAHA why should i bother.
To sum it up. ecstasy increases energy generation in the body.
Rugby and driving use different levels of energy in different ways.
Rugby uses that energy in physical movement. (running, kicking, tackling...)
Driving involves little physical energy, so that extra energy is used up by thoughts. With that extra energy you think through multiple things at time. This creates a sense of confusion as there are to many thoughts for your mind to process.
Confusion and driving don't mix.
hope that helped you little dumb shit.
rezendogable yeah so locky was the best full back the game has ever seen! and then moved into five eighth and was only second to the king! so you can really compare him.
And umm how does taking big hits affect how Ex is used by the body??
hahaha KING WALLY dumb ass!
mfitz1991 Mate I can name u 6 current Queensland players who go out and do ecstasy and blow on a monthly basis, including future Immortals. You would be pretty naive to think it isn't rife in the Rugby League world.
+mfitz1991 you must be the biggest fucking derek out there.
What a shame that there's no more of him in playing career.
Even when Newcastle won the premiership back in 2001, it was Joey's single-handed effort that they could win it.
So many legends come and gone
All Hail! the REAL king of Rugby League
Absolute dominance
Wow. Great vid. Thanks for posting it.
Being a Rah Rah man, I lost interest in league when the Super League started and the Super Rugby really took off. I got given some tickets to this game through work and Joey's performance in that game was the most outstanding individual performance I have seen in any sport.
It was like someone wrote a script about the perfect comeback and it was played out in front of me. Long live Joey and long live league! I'd shout him an eccy any day.
i was at this game. was good to see the greatest rugby league player of all time tear qld to shreds.
absolute legend. nobody has ever controlled a state of origin game like he did
2:02 biggest forward pass ive ever seen
People who speak of Lockyer being greater than this man are simply fools.
Joey's ability was unheralded in attack, yet he defended like a forward. The most complete player you'll probably ever see in the game.
lockyer became a legend in two different positions. at fullback he won a premiership, origin series, australian rep and won in all test series. at five-eighth he did the same and won premierships, origin series, australian test team and all as captain. 2006 lockyer became the first since langer to captain winning teams in premiership, origin and australia's tri nations. think of that before you think of andrew johns acheivements.
How is Lockyer mentioned in the same breath as Johns ? Lockyer has been a great player for a long time but most can name a number of better fullbacks and plenty of better 5/8. Johns was an attacking genius, hit like a forward in defence and at one time was the leading point scorer in the game. The only thing Lockyer has on him is longevity. When Thurston has the same impact in defence and can steer the Cowboys to a premiership he might then be worthy of comparison to Johns.
the play on 2.55 is absolutly freakish... he makes it look so easy, hes got the greatest vision of any player of all time! theres 6-7 queenslanders around him and the ball and he still puts it perfectly on buderus's chest! BEST OFF ALL TIME HANDS DOWN!
(cont.) .. on the flip side, all highlights shown of joey johns include club matches for the knights, origin matches, and test matches. Andrew Johns was a quality player in and out nearly each week from his first ever 1st grade game till his last few seasons. No-one had more influence on the game, as a whole, than Andrew Johns. Wally Lewis as great as he was, was pretty much only the pinnacle for Origin.
terrible song choice
Replace it with "Don't Question My Heart" by Saliva, works a lot better :)
@MANCHESTER UNITED tell one of your 21 subscribers
3:05
This must be how Andrew Johns saw the games when he was doing drugs :/
I say this as a QLD'er but you must be joking? 2005 games two and three he owned us. 2003 games 1 and 2 he owned us, and 2002 game 1 he practically set up all NSW's tries. So yeah, at least 5 I can remember off the top of my head, but there's probably more from the 90's
this video helped me see exactly why roy and HG call minichello the count
johns carved in this game and carved in evry game he played this guy is honestly untouchable
Lockyer is good but he got destroyed whenever he went head to head with Andrew Johns.
When are we ever gonna play like this again?
QLD just has so much young talent coming through
When you compare the teams, Locky and Thurston had better teams around them. When you compare individuals, Johns was a far better player than Locky and Thurston together.
Joey far way more better than Locky and Thurstan. When Joey was playing on opposite side, he made them look funny and reckless having no clue to withstand Joey's power..Joey the best ever..
@@samuelyango7313 Totally agree. I think he was the best we've ever seen. Thurston and Locky are awesome but Johns will always be the best in my opinion.
He is the legend. Best of the best
i reckon that that game was his best of his career. that was fucking brilliant
That last pass from Buderus to Cooper was metres forward, shits me to this day
That last ball from John's was brilliant!
2:55 = the best pass of all time.
and what ended his career was just plain unfair. im QLD all the way but Andrew Johns is the greatest halfback i've seen in my whole 20 years.
I'm a huge Meninga fan but I also believe that Johns deserved the 8th Immortal title more. Joeys recreational drug use was put aside. His football ability and performance in many peoples opinion was greater than that of big Mals. It's that simple.
Even JT mentioned that he learned alot from Joey by playing as an opposition those last two origin games they lost to NSW
lockyer captain'd an origin dynasty with a 6 series in a row record. how many legends have done that?
By far and away the best player that has ever played the game. End of discussion.
yes he is a legend
Agree with most of that, but I personally would prefer having Soward and Carney play together as they complement each other and I trust Sowards goal kicking alot more.
I know it sucks playing them out of position, but having the magic and running game of Carney combined with the calmness and tactical/goal kicking of Soward would be awesome.
LEGEND
NSW won that game with big outside running ball carriers,Beaver Menzies for example. Seriously, NSW has been let down by selections for a decade. I`m fed up with this loser mentality of pick the team to beat Qld. How about pick the team to FLOG Qld? Hello Moylan, Johnston, Keiry, Brooks, Walker, Tedesco, Peats, Jackson..and ...probably Ferguson. Gallen, Bird, Farah played well but they were never game breakers. Hayne, great defence and a Trent Hodkinson try got us the series. Seriously Blues fans what do you think? Time for new blood this year?
You have to go back to 2005 just to see NSW win something. Treasure these moments as the MAROON dynasty is sticking around a while yet!!! P.S Please keep Ricky as your coach cause if anyone else was to coach, we might have to actually try!
The extacy, the speed,Joey was on a total trip that day.
we need danny buderus back, he's abit of the reason why johns was sogood :)
Arguably the best NSW team we've fielded.
Biggest forward pass ever at 2:00
LOL
I pray the days of Blues dominance.. I haven't seen a blues victory my whole high school career.. hoping next year for my uni + blues victory
He might have been a drugie (who is to judge who is perfect anyway) but my god he carved up Qld in this series, proved why he is the greatest half back there ever was. (Y)
remember this game was like yesterday, every1 doubted him but i didnt
@MegaMachyn Lockyer and Joey played different positions. Locky was and still is the greatest 5/8 the game has ever seen and Joey is the greatest 7 the game has ever seen. Locky and Joey were both named in the team of the century. Joey wins on the basis that he played in a Newie team that didn't have half the Aus team in it like Brisbane did. Joey's career was also cut short by a kneck injury.
I think a personal dislike of Johns tends to cloud people's judgement of him. Lockyer probably a nicer and more approachable fella, and an absolutely fantastic player in his own right, too. But aside from longevity, I don't see him having an edge on Johns anywhere. Joey spent his career in a Knights side which had far less quality than the Broncos - Johns revived Newcastle's fortunes totally. Lockyer a legend, but a level or two lower than Johns, who was simply the greatest of his era.
Perfect song choice
Best player in rugby league history and I doubt anyone will ever top him.
whatever he is nothing can remove his legendary status on the game
He certainly was a fantastic player. I cant believe how many ppl on here dont agree. They have one eyed toad syndrome for Langer and Lockyer who were also fantastic players. They just cannot accept a player of their calibre is born south of the tweed.
NSW really are doing better in 2011 and this year without chopping and changing too much of their players, 2010 was just insane the amount of changes they made. They need team organisation and it is a good thing for NSW to choose good or great players and just stick with them and trust them to do their job, cause they are capable. I really do not know hwo will win game 3 if NSW even win game 2, last year game 3 was a blow out in the first 25 minutes that NSW never recovered from in that game.
Yeah thats it, you got me there! Keep up the good work Pilot.
I just checked as well and there still doesn't seem to be highlight reels of him. Maybe you could create one because no one else deemed it worthy to do =)
Guys could we please stop arguing about who or what is better, i made this video to remember a great player one of the best, not to create arguments about whos better then who.
Just enjoy the vid , thanks =)
this is the nsw i miss
Greatest player to ever lace a boot
NSW wouldve been stuffed if they didnt have Johns. What a champion player.
yes that actually supports my comment. thank you.
Even though i go for Queensland joey johns is my all time favourite New South Wales player
ofcourse. no one can deny that
he would had 300 games. broke that try score record and won maybe another golden boot
Wooohoo I am going to state of origin 3, I won tickets through 4BC radio station. I'm a kiwi over in Brisbane on holiday and badly wanted to go but couldn't find tickets so entered in their competition and won myself 2 tickets..
I'll be sitting at Gate D - Aisle 528 look out for a good looking maroon supporter lol
I'm from NSW, I hate the bronco's and im not a fan of lockyer... but even i can acknowledge that he deserves the accolades he gets, hes not a flashy player like prince or marshall etc but he's amazingly good at putting ppl into gaps and his defence is solid as. Even in an interview i watched in britain last year, leon price and a coupla other poms got asked who they thought the best player in the world was, and they ALL said lockyer.... I'd say they'd know better than either of us..
Johns and Lockyer in same origin match....... wish i watched rugby league back then
THIS IS TRUE!!! I dont agree with being a bad defender, Lockyer got targeted 4 or 5 times in a set every game so clubs would wear him down under pressure. Johns would have walked off and had a sniff!
Thans for the video
Johns was above Locky`s level. Don`t get me wrong Locky was definitely one of the greats, but Johns was even above that. probably the greatest.
I love how this was 5 series ago....I wonder what has changed since then!
That was a good team NSW had back in 2005. I wonder how they would go against the qld team of today?
Andrew johns was a great player no doubt about it and deserves all the praise in the world for how he dominated the NRL but , here it comes !!! Thurston is years beyond what johns had , he is one of the most dominating halfs to have played the game is presence alone can turn the tide of a game !! and Mocking a Legend " Darren Lockyer " should be a hanging offence ! lol FML and im not even Ozzy mate , no ones played as many games as this kient !!
"
QLD for the last 6 years has had the premier players such as Lockyer, Thurston, Smith, Inglis, Hodges, Slater, who are always in test teams where as NSW has had good players but the selectors, until this year, have not let any combinations build because they keep changing the team. That's the only reason QLD has one the last 6 years.
Matt Cooper and Gasnier best center pairing of all time!! G.I and Hodges the other
Yeah he deserves one, the only blues player I like. He will get one if Meninga persists with picking old forwards like Civoneciva, we need some young big ones like Tamou or Williams to back up Thaiday and get us moving forward and making yards.
Our superior backline saved us in game 1, but it won't last much longer and I will definitely be putting a hundy on NSW for game 2.
Must admit that I am not old enough to have seen Langlands play, but I know that he was good.
Hard to compare players from past generations though, but you have to admit that PHYSICALLY some of the things that Slater does would not be able to have been done by players back in the old days. I mean, if players like Inglis or Dave Taylor played back then they would have just crushed it as these days League players are fitter, faster and stronger than they used to be - just like most sports
Did Gallen play the whole 80mins game1? Cause he made 230 metres and 11 hitups those stats are more than ne1 else on the field, plus 33 tackles. Yes the QLD backline is insane and Tate had a great game him and Locky were my favorite QLDers in the past 6 year reign of Queensland. I was also thinking of doing a bet on NSW game 2 and really believe they will win that game, as for the series I not sure im thinking QLD 7 years in a row im afraid.
was the try from cooper at 2:05 disallowed or somethingg?
I think johns and locky are the same in ability. I can't split them. They are both about as good as you can get.
What a year. Blues had SoO, Tigers became premiers, even the Swans won.
any chance of playing the nelly song with this clip?
so damn glad I was there to watch THE BEST FUCKING RUGBY LEAGUE PLAYER OF ALL TIME tear apart the inbreds in game two. NOTHING will take away your legacy Joey, Champion till the end.
What Joey did in just that one game was more than Wally did in his entrire Career. It's just downright rude to mention Wally's name, or any one else' name, in the same sentence as Joey's.
Agreed, Slater still would have been up in the ranks but Minichiello would have been top no doubt! Such a shame, well up NSW this year.
NSW seriously have not had a fullback like him, I remember Minichiello owning NZ and England in the internationals as well. If you got time and if you haven't seen it look up Broncos vs Rooster 2005 - he proves he is the best.
Well yeah, there was a point when I thought Wade Mckinnon was the man for my Warriors and he was the premier fullback, and look what happened to him.
But I reckon Slater has revolutionised the game, just look at how many teams now have Slater prototypes as their fullback
Andrew johns best rugby player ever
andrew johns is the best player ever to play league no way any queenslander would be better then him
Ahem...that's simple my friend. No Joey, No Hindy, NO PASSION.
I'm a New South Welshmen and I'll admit that.
