	Last season for Jakovich - News - www.realfooty.com.au (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Glen Jakovich's dream of becoming the first West Coast player to play 300 AFL games is all but over after he conceded yesterday that 2004 would be his last season.
		Coach John Worsfold believed a fit, in-form Jakovich still rated in West Coast's best 22 players, but any injury would be a major blow and the Eagles also had to be mindful of building a team to contend for a premiership in the future.
		Jakovich said whether he played 295 or 300 games was irrelevant in how he was remembered.

	The Searching Kangaroo -> Strong foes stand ground
		Jakovich knew the incident had awakened a sleeping giant and admitted lifting his training tempo in readiness for his clashes with Carey which eventually became crowd-pullers.
		Both agree Carey was marginally quicker and Jakovich slightly stronger and the former Roos skipper explained why he often stood and tried to outbustle the Eagle instead of presenting himself on the lead.
		Jakovich's only regret was that Gary Ablett denied the Roos a Grand Final place with his late goal in the 1994 preliminary final.

	corkintheocean » Jakovich announces retirement (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		I’m sure that you will know by now that Glen Jakovich has decided to hang up the boots at the end of this year, after a career spanning 13 seasons (by year’s end), 250+ AFL games and two premierships, and a period during the 90’s when he was arguably the best CHB in the game.
		Anyhoo, Glen is pumping along as Glen does, he goes to balk, as he does, and suddenly he goes down like a sack of spuds - as he doesn’t do - clutching his leg.
		Now Glen never had what you’d call a tight turning circle - that wasn’t really what he was about - but post-knee his turning circle really became what you’d describe as a gentle arc.

	I-J
		Glen Jakovich commenced his senior league career with South Fremantle, playing in that club's losing grand final team of 1989 against Claremont when just sixteen years of age.
		He was at the peak of his game during the mid-1990s, making the AFL All Australian team in 1994 and 1995, before suffering a serious knee injury in 1996 which forced him to adapt his game to the inevitable reduction in mobility and pace which ensued.
		A member of West Coast premiership teams in 1992 and 1994 Jakovich was still playing excellent football towards the end of his career when he was a role model for a new generation of Eagles footballers.

	Jako day as Swans lose four in a row - AFL - www.smh.com.au
		Phil Matera kicked five goals and Jakovich three in an effort that ensured Mary Donaldson's marriage to Denmark's Crown Prince Frederik was not the only Hans Christian Andersen tale this weekend.
		Jakovich announced his retirement yesterday morning and it served as a great inspiration for West Coast to score only their third win of the year against a courageous Sydney.
		While the Eagles were keen to send off Jakovich, their senior game record-holder, with a win, the Swans were celebrating a few milestones of their own; Matthew Nicks was playing his 150th AFL game and Nick Davis and Nic Fosdike both enjoying their 100th.

	Sports Australia - AFL Match Report: Eagles ensure Jakovich bows out a winner [May 15, 2004] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The match will be remembered for some time to come as the farewell for the Eagles games record holder Glen Jakovich, who officially announced his retirement on match day, having informed the club during the week.
		Jakovich took the field in his 276th and last appearance as an AFL footballer and he didn't disappoint with three goals in the first term as he dominated with eight disposals in the first quarter.
		Sydney were left with 21 players as Adam Goodes left the ground in the first minute of play after colliding knees with Eagles ruckman Dean Cox at the first bounce, hopes of him returning was short-lived as the doctors applied the bandage around his right knee and he hobbled out to the quarter time huddle.

		One of the truisms of football is that Glen Jakovich is not only one of the most overrated players ever to pull on the boots, but also a gigantic crybaby.
		The other “bombshell” is that Jakovich believes that the 2000 “demolition derby” was a result of a premeditated Fremantle strategy to physically upset the Eagles.
		Jakovich is the last remaining player from the dark old days of 1 team in Perth.

	Player in Focus Round 2 - Jade Rawlings
		Rawlings started the game at full forward on Glen Jakovich and was charged with being a leading forward working in tandem with Barlow and giving opportunities to small forwards in Campbell Brown and Lance Picioane.
		He provided a key forward target when it was needed most and by playing in front and using his pace on the lead, he negated the strength of Jakovich whilst maximising his marking advantage.
		He does not yet work as hard to hold the ball inside fifty as a Brown or Barlow but his work rate on the lead and willingness to push outside fifty even as a full forward cannot be questioned.

		And West Coast veteran Glen Jakovich relished the challenge against a team that thrashed the Eagles by a total of 177 points in two matches last year.
		Jakovich used his great experience to patrol the back half with authority all day.
		The second, just before the main break, was pure magic as he stole the ball off Jakovich and Collica in a marking contest on the edge of the square and drop-kicked it through under pressure.

	Who Would Win: West Coast of 2006 vs West Coast of 1994
		One person who might know the result to this game is Drew Banfield, he had 8 possessions in the 1994 AFL Grand Final and in the 2006 Grand Final he improved on that with 9 possessions, for this game he would start on the bench for both teams.
		It would be a battle of the onballers that would decide the game, the 2006 team would need a lot more of the ball to have a chance at kicking a winning score, and that probably would not happen against Matera and the other 1994 Eagles.
		And I'm not just saying that because I loved Glen Jakovich to the point of obsession until he retired.
