    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.

    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..

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

    Anyone else remember that?

    Classic.

    P.S. Thanks for the Jacko upload.

    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.

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
