  • the greatest of all time hands down, there will never be anyone in his league! let alone a better player. he changed the game and elevated the role of the halfback, for that we thank you. an absolute champion.

  • championnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn­n

    

  • Andrew Johns Is My next Door Neighbour ill get him to say hi to u guys its true! ill try to make a video to prove it even! he even teached me to surf!

  • Brad Fittler is 100x better than Andrew Johns believe it or not, Brad Fittler is the Youngest Australian captain at the age of 20.... The Best New South Wales player at the end of every winning series is named the "Brad Fittler" Medal not the Andrew Johns medal. Brad Fittler is the greatest, Correction "BRAD FREDDY FITTLER". watch?v=H0tUWjfeXtY Watch that and you will all change your minds before you guys open you're mouths, I am a man in my late 60's and I know that Brad Fittler is Greater!!!!!

  • @bradlymyboysroosters fittler was a better ball runner but joey was and still is by far the best playmaker of the modern game

  • @bradlymyboysroosters "The Best New South Wales player at the end of every winning series is named the "Brad Fittler" Medal not the Andrew Johns medal." Because Andrew Johns was still playing when the medal was introduced in 2005, otherwise no doubt it would be the Andrew Johns Medal.

  • @bradlymyboysroosters Freddy is an absolute legend but better than Andrew Johns? Come on mate, get your hand off it! Wally Lewis is probably second to Joey in terms of 'the all time greatest'. Wouldn't you kill to have Joey and Freddy back in the halves for NSW...

  • Yep he is The GREATEST!!

  • GET BEHIND THE KNIGHTS IN 2012!

  • :'( saddest video clip out

  • greatest play of all time know one will ever be as good as andrew johns for a very long time

  • The man!!!!

  • awesome vid mate. he is the best of all time. a true icon and will be 'the imortal'

  • Comment removed

  • The best all round player I have seen. Not sure this footage goes close to capturing how good he was with the ball in his hands. Go Dragons!

  • Queensland will still smash this team even if this fool came out of retirement hahahaha

  • lockyer is great but during joey's prime days lockyer wasnt even on joey's level nor was lockyer on freddy's level which was why we dominated origin the past years joey and freddy were classed as the best halves combination ever both from nsw it wasnt till both freddy and joey left that lockyer took over the spotlight and therefore dominating nsw winning now 5 in a row to me lockyer is just a great player that played for a long time but not an elite of the game

  • mmmmm ecstasy

  • when he kicked it from halfway the commentator said ANDREW JOHNS YOUR ARRRRRRRRE THE MESSIAH and u play r kelly you are a true FUKWIT

  • the best ever but why the shittest song ever he isnt a soft cock wigger

  • Also, 3:37 is the best short pass I have ever seen.

    I'm a Bulldogs fan by the way, but I would never deny the talent of an opposition play.

  • Andrew Johns' vision and knowledge of the game was, and still is, freakish. Thurston, Lockyer, Slater, those players pull off amazing feats of skill. But Johns had the amazing ability to lift the other 16 players there with him. He turned half of his Newcastle team into stars. He could see a try opportunity 50 metres away, and he had the skill to put his man where he needed to be. His bone-rattling defence on blokes twice his size was also unbelievable, and he was a pretty decent goalkicker too!

  • NSW need to bring him back for next years origin lol

  • I'm about to cry after watched this video. Andrew Johns is the best rugby player I've ever seen.

  • Lokyer is more consistant but cant do half the things joey could do

  • i would say this guy is the Michael jordan of the NRL

  • My bro sniffs coke with Joey all the time, he's a mad dude when trippin...

  • its so sad how his last few years of footy ended, year after year he would always get injured and it was consistant since 2003

  • andrew johns is the greatest play of all time

  • I was there the day he kicked that penalty goal from Half Way. Never even looked like missing

  • worlds greatest by R.Kelly

  • lockyer's better

  • @slipknotgraffiti1 fuck off Joey is that much better its not funny

  • What song is this?

  • Brang a tear to my eye and im 12...

  • Way better than Thurston and Marshall. Lockyer is close to the same level as Johns.

  • i believe hs is one of the greatest players but what about thurston lockyer marshall?

  • These John’s brothers must have had an immoral upbringing. Shame on their parents for giving birth to adulterous gang-bangers and coke-snorters. They are both scum, whose only claim to any fame is kicking a rugby ball around on an oval. What abhorrent individuals these two are. Matty a gang-banging adulterous wanker, and his brother Andrew a druggie and racist. Good things to be proud of – NOT!

  • @TheCusterCat - if jealousy is not your middle name then Johns never touched drugs.

  • @fearganesh JEALOUS! of gang-bangers and coke-snorters. Bahahahahahaha. GET A REAL LIFE YOU FOOL

  • @TheCusterCat In 2008 Lockyer was accused of attacking a bar manager at Brisbane's Casablanca Nightclub. Lockyer and the Bronco's initially denied the allegations, Lockyer stating that "I have seen the footage and I don't believe it was me", "I'm not going to apologise for something I didn't do". In the face of mounting evidence however, Lockyer admitted to the attack.

    good one bro, so much for your pure and innocent lockyer. dont talk shit about andrew johns cunt

  • @juzdamkrazy1 My poor miserable wretch. My heart goes out to you asking, pleading, that you move towards enlightenment and not being a fuckin' idiot. We don't want wankers performing on-or-off field. Not just for your entertainment, Butch my pal, but there are thousands of young people who use these guys as people to admire BOTH on-and-off field. Now go and grow up and get some morals. This isn’t a fuckin’ x-box game. You dolt!

  • Song makes this so goood

  • Johns is no legend, Lockyer is. Lockyer has played over 30 origins, over 50 tests, has won 3 premierships and has been named the worlds best player in 2 positions. All of this while not on drugs. people say the drugs didn't make a difference. what did John's say after he announced he took drugs? "It was an escape from the pressure and to get away from being a footballer,". Lockyer is a legend has done it all with the pressure, not Johns. Strive to be like Lockyer, not a drug addict like Johns

  • @peterrrc06 You're a goose, come back to argue if Lockyer is named as the best player over the past 30 years woops i forgot. . . . johns was named as the best over the past 30 years haha

  • @peterrrc06 ye with that husky voice i bet lockyer has never taken drugs. . . . . .  hahahaha. andrew johns would run rings around lockyer

  • @peterrrc06 In 2008 Lockyer was accused of attacking a bar manager at Brisbane's Casablanca Nightclub. Lockyer and the Bronco's initially denied the allegations, Lockyer stating that "I have seen the footage and I don't believe it was me", "I'm not going to apologise for something I didn't do". In the face of mounting evidence however, Lockyer admitted to the attack.

    ye lets all strive to be like lockyer and beat people up. read up on who ur defending so u dont look like a dickhead mate

  • @juzdamkrazy1 yeah mate I've read up on him. but have you read up on Johns? Johns may have been a good player but the amount of controversy that he has brought to the NRL is unbelievable. Not only did he not learn from his lesson of taking drugs and putting the NRL into disarray, but he did it again! One of the most influential players of all time calls Greg Inglis a black c***. No but you're right, I should read up on Johns as well though, what a great bloke and a very worthy hero.

  • @peterrrc06 how can u justify this argument ur making??!! lockyer beat someone up!! im not gonna deny lockyer is a good player but johns was better.

    who gives a shit if he said that about greg inglis!!?? stop being so fukin pc!

    millions of people around the world use racist remarks. wow he said black cunt, lets all kick up a fuss about 2 words!!

    so could u really believe that inglis has NEVER EVER discriminated someones sexuality, ethnicity or colour??!!

    so in the end hes a hipicrite

  • @juzdamkrazy1 totally agree , everyone is racist , im a white bastard maggot cunt, so ive been called by numerous coons, and i dont care

  • I wanna be like johns one day, gotta live your dreams..

  • i absoulutly love this video! andrew "joey" johns is a phenomenal person and gives other teenagers like me all over the world hope and inspiration to shoot for the stars! fuck his bad habbits as we all have some sort to some extent! <3 him!

  • the man that made me strive to be the player i m today greatest player to ever live and will always be

  • what a coke head

  • HE IS THE BEST

  • 4 words.....ONE OF A KIND!!!

  • Out of all the great things he did on the footy field, amazing kicks, steps, passes, try set ups and this is what you came up with for 4:49? You could have made hours of his brillance and none of it was shown in this video.

  • shit commentator....fuckin mumbling, sluring speech...............but he could fuckin play!!

  • and dont we need another one of him in newcaslte right now

  • the song somes it up GREAT

  • Allan langer origin highlights is absolutely brilliant just a better video. This video has a really gay song and a lot of goal kicking highlights boring. Andrew Johns was a great player and he and his brother certainly know how to have a good time. Watch the Langer video and make your mind up a lot of the tries he's running straight past johns.

  • @djweight is langer in the team of the century, was he named the best player in 30 years, i rest my case.

  • @luke231089 Wow, shut the fuck up about Andrew Johns you obsessed faggot.

    Is he the only person you think about?

  • @luke231089 Also, all you do is list all the shit he's won. That's not a case. I'll tell you what, when Johns wins 3 premierships, like Lockyer has done, then you can say that he's better than Lockyer. Until then, just keep listing Dally M and all that garbage to try to prove your point.

    Todd Carney won the Dally M earlier this year, yeah, he's in the same league as Johns right? If you say no, then congratulations, you've contradicted yourself.

  • @johmedis 3 premierships is a team effort correct? i'll name a few of the great players lockyer has had in his side, Langer, Tallis, Webcke, Walter brothers, civinociva.....thats just a few of the players, so don't talk about the 3 premierships like lockyer did it himself 3 dally m medals is hard to get if you haven't noticed johns is the only player to have 3 which means he is consistant and probally the best club player you don't think its hard?? Ask lockyer he doesn't have one.

  • @luke231089 Langer didn't participate in any of Lockyer's grand final wins, and I actually made a mistake; Lockyer has won 3. Clive Churchill medal for best and fairest on ground. Golden Boot TWICE, tied with Andrew Johns, and because he's never won a certain accolade, you claim he isn't as good a player. This shows you know absolutely fuck all about skill.

  • @johmedis Your full of shit do some fucking research. 1997 GF broncos had lockyer, renouf, sailor, kevin walters, langer, webcke, tallis. Johns won a churchill medal in 01 when the eels were heavy favourites and he blowed them out of the park. your a idiot you really are.....lockyer has skill that is obvious you clown.......but trying to compare him to johns is just stupid.

  • @johmedis and langer participated in the 1998 grand final aswell.

  • @luke231089 You're a fucking idiot. Read this: You cannot use the Dally M medal as a gauge of skill.

    Fucking moron. How many times do I have to repeat this before you actually work it out and are able to make sense of it?

    Johns lasted long as highest point scorer too, didn't he?

  • @johmedis Yes you can use it as skill, his the only player that has achieved 3 dally m medals which means he dominated club level while lockyer is criticised for his lack of dominance and consistency.

    Johns was the highest point scorer, at least he achieved it?

    funny how you dodged langer playing with lockyer in the grand finals....fucking idiot

  • @luke231089 Dally M means fuck-all, again. If that's all Johns is capable of achieving, then he didn't deserve 3 in the first place.

    Stupid cunt. Get over him.

  • @johmedis just proving a point queenslander. thats all he can achieve??? HAHAHAHA you fucking silly cunt, let it go you look like a silly cunt trying to argue.

  • @johmedis

    hey man im not knocking Lockyer he's a gun... But Andrew Johns is the best player to play the game in my opinion- no contest. Lockyers great player but Johns is the greatest. And I dislike him Johns, but I'm just being objective... He probably should have won the Dally M 5 times...

  • @johmedis

  • Joohns is the immortal of rugby leauge no matter what! BLOODY LEGEND

  • johns your my hero no one will be as good as u ever It was devastating wen u retired

  • No doubt about it, Johns is the greatest halfback to ever play the game.

  • anybody got any more vids of joey johns? he deserves more vids, he shits on lockyer.

  • not bad for a short fat slow druggo racist!!!!!!!!!!!

  • worst song

  • whos better johns or thurston??

  • @braduz100 Johns by a mile. If you're a Cowboys/QLD fan then obviously you wont agree. I am a Manly fan and loved watching Johns play, even when he was giving it to my team

  • @benz1980i yea johns is a great player

  • he was great but lockyer is better. and fittler. and sterling

  • @rachelmartin1977 Lockyer better then AJ? Get fucked lockyer doesn't even have a dally m medal which basically means he can't dominate the nrl like johns did. You silly bogan queenslander.

  • @luke231089 not a queenslander idiot. did mention fittler and sterling which might have given it away. hope you are not a dedective cos u r not too smart. johns never really cut it for the kangaroos which is why he should not be bracketed with those other guys.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @rachelmartin1977 They are better then Johns? Oh ok what makes you say such silly comments?

    How many Dally m medals does lockyer have? None how many more games has he played compared to johns, almost 100 and he can't achieve ONE dally m medal.

    Just embrace the fact that you was able to watch the greatest player dominate in origin games and club games.

  • @luke231089 was he better than terry lamb at club level? not really! was he more influential at state of o then wally lewis? def no!

    reason he is not as good as lockyer, sterling or fittler? the others mentioned are just as good footballers but are all decidedly quicker. ps lockyer won the golden boot twice!

  • @rachelmartin1977 Shit that's a good track record of terry lamb can't disagree, but who is rated better? be honest!

    Sterling is close to johns. Lockyer and fittler are distant from them two. How many tackles has lockyer missed in his career? and they say defense wins games. ps is lockyer, fittler and sterling in the team of the century? Lockyer does not have one dally m medal which means he can't dominate and fittler once got the most overrated player voted by the players once or twice.

  • @luke231089 lockyer has record for most games for kangaroos and most tries. i conceed that johns is recognised as the better player yes, i just disagree.

  • @rachelmartin1977 Disagree why, because your a queenslander.

  • @luke231089 haha. i am australian first and nsw second.

  • @luke231089 Why is it that everyone supporting Andrew Johns have to give him a bad rep by claiming "he's better because Lockyer has never won a Dally M".

    Tell that to Johns himself and he'll tell you to fuck off, because you're a moron.

    The award doesn't make the player, the player makes the award.

  • @johmedis it's simply a point you clown, that lockyer didn't dominate.

  • @luke231089 So much hostility... You're unaware that I actually consider Andrew Johns to be the best player ever, but I don't consider the Dally M to be the gauge for whomever the best player ever is. It's stupid to use that as your argument.

  • Comment removed

  • @johmedis No it's actually spot on what i am saying. I think we can both agree that the dally m is awarded to the player that was most consistant/dominate player during the year right? and as i said before Lockyer is not known to dominate a game, great leadership skills and does all the little things right but there is a reason why he does not have one dally m medal.

  • @johmedis Johns had more talent in his little finger than Lockyer ever had, at least he could tackle. Lockyer is a poor mans Wally Lewis and Greg Inglis/Billy Slater will be ten times better than him by the end of their careers. Lockyer was certainly a good player but hardly consistant.

  • The Newcastle Knights were fkn beast with Buderus, Johns, Matthew Gidley, Simpson, Butterfield but now its fucking gay with Kirk Gidley leading the team

  • while i love joey as a player.

    at the start of the song the singer is singing "the worlds greatest" i kept thinking they were saying "THE WORLDS RACIST" =D

  • fucking dopeit destroyed maradona, andrew jhons & elvis career

  • @thompachmed u obviously did listen to the interveiw with gus gould in which johns stated he had been taking for about 5 years (and still killing it) it wasnt drugs that ended his career i was injuries.

  • fucking racist pig..you brought the game into controversy and fucked up NSW's chances for the origin too..ripping Australia to pieces are shit skippy racist dogs like you..Supported your bogan brother over rape allegations but this draws a final line ..find a cave and kill yourself Johns with all your maggot supporters

  • Comment removed

  • Andrew Johns as coach for Newcastle Knights

    2011.

  • @kiltsonfire164

    Not a bad idea but he is too soft with em, he doesn't train em hard when they lose

  • @SuperMrHotDog Well i heard in the Herald newspaper that former knights coach Warren Ryan criticized the knights "Soft" Attitude and Rick stone is off contract by 2011. so next year might be a good year to harden the poor old knights.

  • sucks so bad that he isnt playing... i stopped following the game when he retired.. he was the exctement of the game...

  • brings me back to better time of knights home games, the hill before it got crushed, the people, everything, its all gone now :( god damn it!

  • johns will always be king and this is coming from someone who was born and raised in brisbane i grew up with the langers,sailer,walters and broncoes in their prime but i go for newcastle and still do to this day all because of this great man go the knights

  • ahh the good old days go the mighty knights!!!

  • I didnt like the knighys. BUT andrew johns will always be the best player in the world ever

  • Johns didn't need a gap, quick play the ball or overlap he just made magic happen

    The whole drugs thing doesn't mean that much 2 me he such a great player

  • that is the perfect song for joey

  • this is officially the worst music ever added to a video ... ever ... you're a douche

  • @gunzblazin108 GET FUCKED! we put music in the video cause it adds a little bit of atmosphere. you watch the same video without sound and what do ya fucken get. NOTHING BUT A FUCKEN BORING TIME AND A WASTE OF 4.49 MINUTES! GO BACK TO YA FANCY LATTE SIPPING HOME AND FUCK OFF OUTTA JOHNSYS VIDEOS YA CUNT!

  • fuck he is amazing!!

  • Andrew Johns is truely the greatest rugby league player of all time

  • @ryancorky JOhns is a fucked up coke-snorther

  • Comment removed

  • he was really good to the nsw blues side and since he has gone queensland are just dominating which is good :)

  • Greatest player of all time.

    LEGEND.

    Knights looking nothing like themselves wihtout him.

  • He was th greatest

  • Andrew johns was a great player but this tribute sux it showed none of his running passing or kicking skills. Highlights of joey making conversions is boring the way he played the game was not boring.

  • Greatest

  • nah Langer achieved more, was a better leader oh and wasn't a druggie!

  • Comment removed

  • yep you got that right!

  • @MrGrungeparker fuk you asshole

  • @MrGrungeparker I didnt fucken see langer in the team of the century??? did you ?? cause i dont think anyone else did?? yyerr your fucked! alfie langer is an old midget who gets caught drunk drivin after his shit team the brisbane faries lost on the weekend! GET FUCKED !!!!

  • @MrGrungeparker langer is a bald midget who cant hold his drink! johnsy was a druggo that could still outplay any cunt on the field

  • was meant to say "where it states" not where is states

  • at the end where is states his quote "i feel lucky to have played the game" in my opinion it's the other way around, the game was lucky to have a player like Joey.

    Go Johnsy!

  • I live in brisbane. Darren Lockyer is the best player we've ever had but he doesn't come close to the effect Johns had every time he played. Lockyer has faded too.. Johns never did. Wally was the origin king but not that special in the everyday comp. Johns dominated NRL origin and tests. He was the best

  • 1. Joey Johns.

    2. Daylight

    3. Wally Lewis

    4. Mal Meninga

    5. A six year old on a Saturday morning

    6. Alf Langer

  • @skaxamax

    No 1 Andrew Farrell

  • This video is so worth watching!

  • the best player ever to play and theres no doubting that

  • Graetes player ever to be seen so far

  • in my opinion is not the best ever

  • the greatest player ever to play league so far

  • Joey Johns is a good player, but Allan Langer, Lockyer and Wally Lewis beat Johnsy hands down. You were a good player Johnsy

  • clearly a qlder

  • If that was so then Langer would be in the Team of the Century at halfback ... but he's not. There is no doubt it's between Johns and Lewis, and you can't split them. Two different generations, Lewis played awesome for most of his career but finished in reserve grade, and was a discard from Brisbane..

  • hahahaha Sonny Bill you dick lol

  • joey u where a legend of our game you deserved halfback of the century

  • he's the kind of player that you want to play forever...it's sad my kids won't ever get to grow up watching him like i did

    we miss you Joey

  • u r a awsome player its ure choice but its your decition m8

  • put your boots back on you freaky bastard we have a final to win!!!!

  • amazing player

  • johns was and always will be the worlds greatest player ever, without him the game would not be what it is now. Drugs or no Drugs wouldnt have made a difference whatsoever to how he played at all, at least he admitted it and for that my respect for johns will never be lost, we are all human, we all make mistakes. the johns retirement killed me, so unlucky. No one will ever get near the skills and natural talent that johns had for the game. always be my hero mate no matter what happens.

  • @vorley16 "at least he admitted it" mate.. he only "admitted" it coz he got caught, period. what you say about the skills is dead right.. but spare us the sob story, the man is a cunt, ask anybody who has ever lived in newcastle

  • @vorley16 100 % aggree anyone who judges him on the whole drug thing is stupid it didnt effect his playin ability

  • Greatest player of all time....many have and will play the game but none will be better than Joey. Great compilation, some amazing moments and not even the the best of his career...thats how good he was

  • amazing ! great vid

    wudda been good if there was a bit more origin footage in there

    :D

  • thurston not even in his league johns is leagues dan carter

  • nah there is nothing wrong with the song

    great job

  • Him thursten and shicofske are the best % kickers

    I miss you Joey!

  • Legend!! Thanks for putting this together. Next time dont pick such a cheesy song

  • brings a tear to my eye

  • @Nik91T lol

  • wats the song

  • The Worlds Greatest by R.Kelly

  • what a fucking legend!

  • He was the worlds greatest.

    But now thustron has that spot
