That was brilliant. Loved it. 

Complete opposite to what I expected, he loves to talk! I look forward to the follow up next week.

He was quite the performer on the footy show in his day too if I recall correctly, so I'm not suprised that he loves to talk.

 I actually think it's more surprising in some ways given his personality that he has become such a public recluse, but there is probably some ultimate wisdom and also something to be admired in that.  So many footballers these days seem to think they can have a second career as B grade celebrities, but in the end, bar the talented, inelegent and articulate few, they just end up wearing thin on the public thay once adored them.

 Living somewhat close to Northern NSW, I'd love to find out the fishing charters he runs though.  A day spent fishing with Jacko would be an awsome experience and I wouldn't even care if I didn't catch anything as per usual.

This even got a mention in an article on AFL.com.  Of course, the so-called journalist didn't credit DL as the source, he just said " an entertaining two-hour-plus interview."  Not cool Mark McGowan.

Don't think you read closely enough Ralphius.

It's possible you could be correct.  I'd swear that wasn't there when I read the article at work, but it WAS work, so I was half asleep at the time.

He did mention Demonland Podcast. I've tweeted to him to ask if they can at least mention Demonland.com.  I'm not looking for personal fame and in any event Jako is/was the star. We were just facilitators. 

Tomorrow they are running a story about the correlation with Jesse.

@Demonland, Jako more-or-less said at the end that he'd be open to doing a follow up interview.

Clearly it's only the day after following the interview but do you intend on taking him up on that inference?

Do the umpires screw us every week whilst shitting in the woods?

Sad fact is that with the way the game had gone we will never see another Jakovich. Look at his Body shape and no engine. Wouldn't have made it through the draft. He was the good old style stay within the 50m area of his goals forward. None of this pass off stuff, he knew he was there to kick goals and didn't he love doing it. Some thing I wish At least one of our forwards will do next session.

Not one mention of Jakovich interview/article on the Demons 'bigfooty' forum.

Average age there must be 13.

What are you doing in Osaka, Earl? PM me if you get towards Aichi. It would be nice to catch up with another member of the inner city intelligensia.

Expand  

Colin, in Osaka to catchup with Japenese exchange students who have stayed with us over the years. Whirlwind tour and great fun so far. Wish it would stop raining though. Still haven't had time to listen to the Jackovich podcast yet! Maybe tonight.

It's fantastic seeing guys like Sean Wight , Andrew Obst, Luke Beverage, Steven Stretch in those clips too.

Wight was a very underrated  player , and the only one in our team who could match Abletts speed and aerial ability.

Obst was a sublime user of the footy and attacked it pretty hard too.

A really well balanced side.

Another Jako article, oh boy.   Your interview is the gift that will keep on giving.

It still feels surreal that the great man has emerged to speak...  cant imagine what it must have been like talking to him.

And who was the other interviewer, was that nasher?

Anyway, great job guys.  Just amazing.   As good as it gets, and it will never be topped any footy journo, or anyone else.

I missed it too, but he does mention:

"I feel for young Jesse. I hope he runs out there and remembers his old man every time he does, and that will help," Jakovich told the Demonland.com Podcast.

mmm possibly. In any case, isn't it great to see our little lunatic asylum being sourced in mainstream media?!

I woke up the next morning in cold sweats the day after fearing the same thing.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
