Just got this game delivered:

http://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_matc...istics?mid=4070

God I miss simple, direct footy. Just so much more honest than the game today. Commentators were comparing Jako to Jason Dunstall during the game!

So when can we expect the highlights? It's not that difficult, complicated to a degree, but there are guides available.

You'll need DVD Shrink, VOB2mpeg2, Virtualdub-mpeg2 and SUPER or AVIdemux. I'm not sure about quality. Probably Youtube will insist on its own re-code but if the video is already to the site spec this might be avoidable.

The waiting is killing me

The world needs to see Jaka

I can envision this video getting 1,000,000 hits on YouTube!

Giddy up!

To be fair maybe the guy has been busy, but please please please get this up soon.

Thanks for the benefit of doubt. Yes, work commitments and pregnant partner make time scarce! Will work on it for you Jako fans this weekend.

Thanks Chaser J.

Selfless efforts like yours are appreciated but they not always properly acknowledged.

Look forward to seeing it.

Cheers, mate.

Had a play around last night and uploaded a 3 minute clip from the first quarter last night.

Jeeze Lyon was good. Keep em coming mate.

That was the highlight for me, how well Did G move, god to have someone like him in our team at the moment..

I think his football ability gets lost in what he has done post footy. he was Brilliant.

i remember one of his best games was against richmond, the week after Balmey got sacked, garry could hardly move, i think he got about 2 kicks, kicked one goal off the ground, but i thought he was nearly best on ground that day, his leadership and focus was awesome, would be nice to have that in our team now...

jacka, what a flawed genius he was...

Good times..hope their not far off again..

does anyone else remember what a riot of a bloke jaka was off-field, too? maybe clubs didn't have the rein on players then, but he had some fabulous things to say. after an early game he was asked about being flamboyant & said -- was he clever enough for tongue-in-cheek? -- he didn't know what that word meant. asked on radio about his favourite goal, he said "the one i give off to grinter" -- such faux selfishness. he was a gem that boy. also remember going to the turf club hotel in flemington where he'd got up & sung w. the band. we had to settle for him joining in from behind the bar. &, of course, the brotherly kiss, the aeroplane goal celebration, the jumper-over-the-head celebration. there's never been anyone like him in the afl.

I just remember that game for Damien Gaspar's blind turn in the back pocket.

Anyone else remember that?

Classic.

Did Gaspar have the ball at the time? Did he turn back into the opposition goals?

I used to cringe when Gaspar was selected. He epitomised the trough we were in 10 years ago under Balme.

If you get that move of Gaspar's on you tube it would be worth something.

I cant recall one piece of redeeming football that guy ever played.

I think he was cut at the end of 1997. It could not have happened too soon.

There were some things about Jako which were not such a riot. He was a mercurial enigma on the field and not the sharpest tool in the shed off the field. His lack of maturity and judgment in certain situations off the field placed Jako in some very difficult circumstances.

Its a pity he was not better focussed or prepared for football like his brother.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
