A Tribute to one of the most Entertaining and Talented Players of the modern era, Matt Bowen.
Keep Updated - / jbpsportseditsyoutube
To this day I'm still so crushed they fumbled the ball on his contract and let him go before his time was up. The man could read the field as if it was in slow motion! I still cant understand why he wasn't in more origins/ rep games. The thing that disappoints me most of all is that the man only played for the one club in his entire NRL career and they let him go just before the 2015 Grand final victory. He deserved to be there in that team more than anyone! Sorry for the rant, apparently this great video stirred up a few emotions haha. He will always be the greatest fullback in my eyes, Love ya Bowen!
As a Cowboys fan I agree, Matty should've been there for the 2015 GF and we shouldn't have let him go!! Gets me worked up too
Hubba that's my school mate we from abergowrie college
My brother Matthew Bowen everyone love him because he superstar abergowrie brother deadly black fella
At his best. Matty Bowen was the best.
my favourite nrl player ever. second close is thurston
what happened to him i dont wanna read a whole essay
Matty Bowen, Matty Sing, Ty Williams. That was a pretty deadly back three.
One of the if not the most underrated players to ever play in the NRL
I was 6 years old when Matt Bowen made his debut was 7 when I first took notice of him, by age 9 I was mimicking his play style and every second word that was coming out of my mouth was Matt Bowen this Matt Bowen that he made me love the game of rugby league he made me love sports and he made me a NQL and QLD supporter through and through even got a picture with him when i was playing for caloundra u/11's. They said no signatures or anything but Matty begged the coaching staff I remember it all like it was yesterday and still to this day I love Matty Bowen and always will cherish the times I watched him play from the bottom of my heart I cannot thank this man enough for all he has done for the rugby league community!
That QLD Maroons intercept to seal QLD victory was special.. Thank you Bowen for the memories!!
Shit man the current Cowboys need to watch this video as an 11 minute refresher on what support play looks like.
Commentators keep saying how good is he....? Well I think they know that he's probably one of the best players they've ever seen! Definitely the most exciting!!
miss watching Matt bowen play for the Cowboys Little legend
Bowen the bullet to Thurston's trigger
Speed, Skill, Situation awareness and most importantly held the ball with 2 hands young players take note.
Yes a player that holds the ball in 2 hands is was more unpredictable
Favourite Player, excitement machine
one of the most underrated.. he was so good
A legend of my childhood, everyone playing 1st grade footy and he's out there playing backyard footy running rings around them. One of my little brothers was named after him, hope he reads this oneday.
He is the most down to earth most humble man you will ever meet. He is doing great things in our community and he’s is a stand up guy who is very approachable (unlike other footy players in town *cough cough *) and definitely one of the best
Matty Bowen is among the greatest fullbacks to ever play the game
Matty bowen was an insanely underrated player and it shows with this video somehow only getting 5000 views so far. People talk of Andrew Johns’ legacy and Billy Slaters’ legacy but i think he was a better player than both. No one could do what he was doing and he has all aspects of his game covered. Its a shame that he doesnt get more recognition cause he was insanely good at footy.
also he was a killer ball player later on
Ball in hand, he was better than Slater, even if he wasn't the best defensive fullback.
I'd take prime bowen over Billy
i recon he is better than slater...for all I care..so sad that he had hang his boots early...
I mean a lot of the tries in this video are the same and I don’t think there was anything in this video that I hadn’t seen slater do, slater scored more and had better defence, rarely ever had an off game too. Bowen great player though but not as good as Billy the kid, Hayne or the snake
This guy to many people was the most exciting player to ever play league hands down, he should’ve been Australian fullback, he outclassed outscored Slater for 3 years, he is the Christian Cullen of league GOAT
he played in the australian team vs usa in 2005 sought of a spectulation match to promote the sport and ripped it up
Anyone remember when he ran down Minichiello from across the field in origin?
I played against Matty B in local league when he was 17. We knew he was something else. Matty was like a light to many. He just Brightened up your week for so many years. How many players can we really say we're that electric? Only a handful. But Matty Bowen at his Best was the G.O.A.T. He could have played for Australia/ Qld many times if it wasn't for Slater's consistency. Matty was a super freak. He embarrassed the best of players. He was the man. And a gentleman as well. If someone can find the footage he scored against the Broncos. Where he beat like 8 players to score. Just unbelievable
2007 was his peak year yet theres no where to find highlights from that year..a definite unsung hero of the time would be worth a million in these days.. peter parr was the fuckwitt to cut him off in 2013 when his ball playing was at a premium, then he went bowen mode in the super league for a year then retired
Given the choice, I go bowen over billy..
His balance was off the chart.
He was way better than i remembered
That Origin intercept was one of the best ever ❤ Matty Bowen's a 🐏🔥❤
Still the GOAT in my books and the most incredible player to ever wear the Cowboys Jersey.
Nice bait 🤣🤣
no arguments here
I don't know bruh. Thurston wore that jersey as well.
Do u know who Johnathan Thurston is?
Definitely the best player from the cowboys Loved him
As a broncos fan Matty broke my heart on many occasions but he’s still one of my favorite players of all time. He made me want to watch cowboys games as much as I could
Pure talent. Greetings from Papua New Guinea!
As a Knights fan I always admired Matty Bowen. He was phenomenal & very underrated too.
the best player to lace on a boot. hail to the king matty bowen. nice vid man
Still the best ever cowboy even though he didn't win a premiership with them in 2015...👏🏿👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾
The way he stepped through defensive lines was like he was back home barefoot dodging bull ant nests
Honestly am just watching with tearies rolling down, what are aaa..player he is greatest nrl player ever 🙏💪💪❤❤..am a huge Cowboys fan because of him and JT
The chip and chase legend.
I wept in joy when Bowen got the intercept pass in Origin to seal Queensland victory
most underrated player in the NRL IMO
He deadly Black fella how good is He
I knew he was a great player, but I didn't expect his highlight reel to be this outrageous. What an amazing player. There were some great fullbacks in his generation, but this guy has to be right near the very top of that list.
Probably second to Billy Slater for most people as the best in the last 20 years, though he did everything Slater could do 3-4 years before Slater did it. And he did it in a far less dominant team. Bowen is at the same time highly regarded and still underrated IMO, he never got mentioned as much as he deserved.
Slater probably emulated him
More than did Matt Bowen and his career justice, fucking outstanding man well done!!!
Well what more would anyone want?
He should have played for Australia.
Absolute game changer.
None could stop him.
Some these days have the similar energy enthusiasm and never give up attitude, but they don't have his speed and big step off both sides, and the faith in knowing that he is going to score.
Miss you Mango :)
He did
He has perfect hands for a five-eight though.
Goat 🐐
He did play like one too😊
Yep, thanks for the memories. One of the players you come to watch.
Bloody hell he was brilliant ..
Very few players could have caught Slater. Legend
So so good
When footy was footy, no better try scorer in my book!!!
He was the best!
Man I love Matt Bowen highlights. But i can't believe how good this was put together!! EVERYONE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE.
Matty Bowen greatest fullback ever
If I could see a player from the past play in today’s game I might pick Matty Bowen
He was one of my unsung heroes for the cowboys..GO COWBOYS 2024
Absolutely amazing.. Thanks for the memories Matty
good old back yard footy. he did enjoy his time on the field. and entertained his fans and everyone. thanks for the entertainment matty....
COWBOYS forever, forever a COWBOY, Matty bowen cowboys legend fken oath indigenous freak show him and J.T the great. R.I.P Aleki Elisala love ya uce
plays like a good sevens player from fiji
Never be a player like him ever again definitely one of a kind
One of the best fullback I have ever seen ❤️✊ Matty the electric ⚡
In tears
He was magic to watch.
Thanks Matty 👍🏉
Pound for pound, the most exciting player to play in the Nrl.
Skills, footwork, vision, speed.
If he had a bit of size and strength, he would have been the perfect player...Mango Magic
Immortal and a Hall of famer.👍🏿
Also may I mention, he could of been a great 6 or 7.
watched all his games many good moments.. its like everthing he done turned to gold
Little legend
Best sport ever
JT and Bowen such a deadly duo
That's right,he was a very crafty player 💯,one of the greatest players to ever put on a jersey 💯
The best cowboys fullback ever
Always was a Mango fan, always will be 🙌🏾
People have forgotten how good he was
In my opinion definitely one of the best ever to play league
Sonny bill Williams has him at number three on his list as toughest opponents
Matty is a very hard man also as the best stepper the game has seen
damn i had no idea about this guy and im glad i decided to check out this video! Whats happened to him now?He looked magic when he played!
I knew he was good but I didnt know he was this good. This is just as good as any highlights real for any player. Great montage!
He was a CLASS ACT Matty Bowen..... pound for pound he was WAY BETTER than most.... how they let him go was DISGRACEFUL...... if anyone in the Cowboys deserved a title it was Matty...... what a DISGRACEFUL decision......
He was the man
Nothing breaks my heart more than Matty Bowen not winning a premiership with the Cowboys! He’s truly a legend in my eyes! 🔥🐐
The funniest part of the video was the commentary, "here comes Luke Lewis". As if he's going to catch Bowen lol
The real GOAT of nrl
Deadlee black fella magic
The best to ever do it 😢
One of the all time greats and the greatest show and go ever in rugby league. The only player I can remember who may have been as fast off the mark was Steve "slippery" Morris.
Matty Bowen would rule the modern game with the speed of play and the 6 again rule he’d be untouchable
He had one of the best dummies I have ever seen, and a deadly step on him as well.
we need you Matty - signed the Cowboys
He still the best
I met Matthew Bowen today 😄
The reason why I followed the Cowboys. I will never get over how the Cowboys let him go before the 2015 GF
My god that try when he burned past Craig Gower, who was no mug himself...
Phenom
There's no better sight than Matt Bowen in full flight length of the field try
The best
How long did it take to put this all together? lol
Rad video, so inspirational. Matty Bowen is such a spark!
@5:28 Slater would of left anybody in his wake, but not when Bowen is on the field!
Watch the magic trick ball bounce behind the back after scoring @02:20 We will NEVER see the likes of Matt Bowen again.
My top 5 indigenous players.
1. Greg Inglis
2. Johnathan Thurston
3. Matt Bowen
4. Ben Barba
5. Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow
He could side step and make fitter look like kid
Ohh yeah
1:12
Left Wallace for dead.... literally 😂😂
🐐
Some of the best tries I have ever seen it was actually bowen who modernized the fb position I think then slater
better than slater
The greatest! Gowrie old boy!
Mango had it all looks like he was chilling @ 300km/h 😊
I would go as far to say he was better than Slater, shame he injured his knee was the only thing that slowed him down. 5:30 ;)
Go NSW 2021
He’s the best person ever I was friends with his daughter Diaz and I kinda still am but I moved three years ago and I follow her on tiktok and all the stuff she follows me back too but we never talk I’ve tried messaging her but she isn’t answering
Now I know why they call him mango....slippery as one
Easily a 1.5 million dollar a season player
