Johnathon Thurston is one of the great platers to ever play rugby league. he played for Queensland, Australia and over 300 NRL games winning to Premierships. Clubs wouldn't sign him at the start of his career because he was to small.

The reason he's the Goat because he started from Scratch. Its all because Cowboys was robbed so many times over the Years and through his persistence winning the Grandfinal in 2015. 😢.. Not A Cowboys Fans but to work hard all year around only to be robbed by Paid Referees. 😢😢

JT will forever be one of the Goats of RL. Watching him play was a joy. The only player that played with one arm in the State of Origin game. He has so much respect that no NSW players wanted to attack him. Will forever be a legend. The drop goal to win the cowboys the GF was felt by everyone. Think even some Broncos fans wanted him to win it. There will never be another player like him again.

JT what a legendary player! One of my favourite players... always played with heart! But to be fair, he didn't have a better career than Cameron Smith or Cooper Cronk... JT definitely is one of the greatest rugby league players to play the game but not no.1 in my opinion! Anyway on another note, the videos on the playlist on my channel titled 'Purpose of Life?' might interest some people!

@gdaycunt2001 12 дней назад

Nah instead he built up a average cowboys and carried them to a premeriship team meanwhile Cronk and smith were both in the biggest salary cap scandal in nrl history.. ina storm side over 1mill over the cap including biggest NRL grand final lost in history (40-0).. and cheaters do not compare to the greatest of all time which is a conversation between JT, Andrew John's and Darren Lockyer...

@troystaunton254 13 дней назад

Sorry but Joey didn’t create the game. All he did was merely take attributes, Langer, Stuart, Lewis and Sterling had. Which is the natural progression of things. The new guy does what the old guys did. Besides Joey has 1.5 premierships. Given Newcastle won a divided comp and would have lost convincingly to Brisbane had they faced off. Joey played nearly half his representative career off the bench or at hooker or even 5/8 with Langer and then Kimmorley preferred at halfback. Joey ain’t even on Alfie’s level.

He holds the record for the most try assists in Origin History. He only lost two Origin series in his entire career. In the 8 series in a row that QLD won, over 50% of the points were either try assists from Thurston or points directly scored by him.

@Tyler-ww6jp 13 дней назад

@JamesWillis-yy5px 11 дней назад

Go back and rewatch his Origin career. He has the highest amount of try assists in Origin History. And he had to compete with Billy Slater, Darren locker, Greg Inglis, Cameron Smith, and Cooper Cronk for try assists. His by far the greatest Origin player ever, no one is even close.
