Great viewing! Great to see Jacko is still a Melbourne supporter with Oliver his favourite player and urging Hogan to be more selfish.

My favourite was when he sprayed the Gatorade over the Collingwood supporters at Victoria Park while going up the race at half time. He needed an escort to get back to his car!

He was dragged early on came back kicked 7 and we won a famous game (our last game at Vic Park) to knock the Pies off the top of the ladder - potentially costing them the flag. I was standing in the outer as a 10yo, great day at the footy.

You forgot how good a player he was and his kicking for goal was beautiful to watch. He really was a rare talent and that story he told of squirting the gatorade at the pies fans who were eating a pie at the time then saying how worried he was coming back out after 1/2 time and not sure what side to walk out on but said they are pies supporters so they wouldn't be smart enough to change sides was hilarious. 

He was great tonight after just disappearing from society. Very funny man. 

Glad to see he is still keeping an eye on the demons and still being interested in us. I wonder if Clayton Oliver is aware of him.

So you’d prefer that as “stooge” he talks over the top of a guy who’s barely been seen for 30 years?

Haha those clips were awesome thanks. 

I saw most of Allen’s games. He was a total freak

very quick runner for the first 5-10 metres. 

Pity he always had a bad back. 

If Jako had played a full season in ‘94 we would have won that cup

i was shattered

Gee it would have been a handy forward line down the track if he was able to stay injury free for a few years. Jakovich, Lyon, Schwarz. 

‘94 we had all 3. Allen played his last game for us mid season

Ha. Same here as a 10yo with my Filth supporting dad. He’d take me to Vic Park a lot, but to be fair he took me to Melbourne games too. I’d collect ‘cash-a-cans’ with random other kids whilst dodging the flying ciggie butts and bodily fluids. Climb the back of the scoreboard at half time while dad was at the bar.

The others kids that day were all Pies and were giving me heAps early in the game. Then Jacko came back on, went berserk and made for a great day! I wasn’t very tough as a kid, but Jacko made me feel invincible as I gave it back to those kids. 

Unforgettable!

Yep. Dad tried to make me do up my duffle coat over my Melbourne jumper. Probably more out of embarrassment or shame than anything!

That was so good. Although people need to learn to shut the [censored] up when they’re in the presence of greatness. Happens to me all the time...

 

Loved how they pointed out he never thought about cantering it, then he said Hogan needs to be more selfish lol, times certainly have changed. 

His follow through on the run is a thing of beauty. 

 

Jakovich was that one Melbourne player all the other kids at school would excitedly talk about and mimic during kick to kick, being the only Demon at my school it was the only time we got a mention, and I was chuffed. Great memories.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie
