Glen Jackovich
If he wants to be like the rest of us and barrack for his team when they are playing that's fine, but can he get off TV as a special comments expert?

Re:Glen Jackovich
You know the saying hypen... once an eagle, always a @#$%^*&%d. I wouldn't mind if the umps stopped trying to make it a close game...

One more half - emerge victorious, my purple knights!

Re:Glen Jackovich
Yes we know Jacko, when your team fumble, it's wet underfoot. We get it.

Worst. Commentary. Ever.

Re:Glen Jackovich
As soon as we saw the commentary team down went the sound on the TV, on went the radio. Can't stand to listen to either of them.

As yes, Glen Jakovich. That wonderful combination of intelligence, perfect diction, and lack of bias.

He makes Peter Wilson sound like Noel Coward.

Re:Glen Jackovich
Jackovich had more positives to about Freo than the other commentator!

Re:Glen Jackovich
We should actually have John Soh (Mayor of Melbourne)commentate. He picked Freo by 60 points on Triple J radio, loves us. That's why he was voted Best Mayor in the World. Gotta love him. He's gold.

Re:Glen Jackovich
Caught the end of the peeeearrr coverage and there were more than a few callers complaining about how bad the commentary was (particularly Slappo). Usual story, old Fanta shrugs it off and tells them to call another PR program. Reminded me why I never bother listening to PR. Without question, worst station in town.

Re:Glen Jackovich
The highlight of the commentary was Tim Gossage finally having enough of stupid Jakovich statements and asking him - so why is the ball heavy? It probably breaks the commentators code but it's nice to hear occasionally.

Re:Glen Jackovich
The thing about Glen Jakovich that causes me the most hilarity (and there are so many things to choose from, I know!) is that he has obviously received instructions from somebody to look happy and relaxed when he appears on camera.

But in Slappo's mind this has translated into "Adopt fixed smile. Just hold that position. It doesn't matter if the others are rabbiting on for 45 seconds. Just don't move a muscle, keep smiling and staring at the camera".

Never fails to cause me to lapse into a fit of giggles.

Re:Glen Jackovich
It all became basically unbearable when the buffoon Shaw finally turned up. Who in their right mind would ever enjoy hearing his comments!

Re:Glen Jackovich
Shaw and his Vic mates probably though it was WC winning if they were listening to the commentary from the airport to Subi. Does anyone in the media think there is a second team in WA, continually there are negative comments and thoughts about our boys.

I hate to admit it- Goose wasn't that bad, I've heard far worse.

Re:Glen Jackovich
Gossage was ok. When Jeff got dragged to the ground after taking a mark and even Slappo was wondering why no 50 was awarded Gossage suggested it was because it was Jeff Farmer and the Umps treat him a bit different from others. If it gets picked up Goss may get a please explain from El Supremo Dimwitriou for daring the suggest the AFL is less than perfect & it's earthly representatives divinely inspired.

Re:Glen Jackovich
I just can't understand why they have to have Jacko on?
Week in and week out. We have to put up with it.
It's not as if he's got nothing
else to do. Can't the footy media give him a different
'desk job'.

During the match there were three fifty metre penalties against Dockers. The commentary didn't explain them.
In fact there just wasn't much explained at all. Confusing.
Should have had the radio on.

Re:Glen Jackovich
i see your "heavy ball" and raise it with (after watching replay after replay of wirrapunda standing on coxs foot), jako's classic "i think it's his foot". to which gossage replied something along the lines of "what else did you think it was"? if someone can put that video/audio on these pages we could make a shrine to jako's stupidness and people from far away can make pilgrimages to listen to the goose and stand in awe of his ineptitude.

Re:Glen Jackovich
I must be going a bit crazy. I thought he was ok. I mean you can hear his bias appear now and then but I thought he genuinely gave us a fair go. Talked up our young blokes and ex-sowf boys with some sincerity. I think in the heat of watching a close game maybe we read into alot of his comments a bit too much. Sorry guys but I felt it wasn't as bad as watching a Pies game with Eddie commentating.
