Club career

After completing his teacher training in 1978, Greedy was able to move to the Sydney area to pursue a soccer career.[3] Over the next four years, he played semi-professionally in the New South Wales State League for Bankstown and Melita Eagles.[1] Melita coach Attila Abonyi recommended Greedy to his former club St George Saints, where Abonyi's friend and former teammate Frank Arok was coach. Greedy subsequently signed for St George and became a top-flight player in the National Soccer League (NSL) at the age of 27.[3] He played in the NSL for St George from 1982 to 1986, winning the league in 1983, and for APIA Leichhardt in 1988.[4][5]
