Open Mike

[Soft Ball Get]

Then that means the whole thing is going to be about Wayne Carey

Going by the preview...yes.

 

[Wetdog]

Confirmed he's struggling for guests. So many more interesting people he could be interviewing. A once great show is going downhill fast.

It's a shame that you will never be a guest on Open Mike. I would love to hear more of your fascinating views on football.

All teams who haven't won a flag in 60 years should have their license revoked.

A very original retort.

Be careful what you wish for; you might be 43 or so years away from having your license revoked.

 

[TheJanuaryMan]

Glen, what are your thoughts on the 2006 flag?

 

[Damon_3388]

When is Sheehan going to interview Allen Jakovich already?!?!?!

Yep definitely on the slide. Jako was ok tonight albeit not many great stories to tell.

Who hasn't been on the show that could light it up again?

Daniel Chick?

When he stops being a recluse! believe me I've even tried.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Thought Jako was great. Spoke really well, seems like a good bloke. Mike got annoying though with his constant gushing over his brother.

 

[footyfan1978]

Has Ross Glendinning been on?
Would love to hear from someone like him?

Leon Baker, Bruce Doull, Tim Watson, love to know more what he now thinks of his coaching attempts.
Silvio Foschini. The list goes on and on.
So many players would be of interest.

They had him in the studio, all ready to go, when he booted Mike Sheehan in the shin, grabbed the microphone and ran off to Crime Converters.

Leon Baker has been on.

 

[footyfan1978]

Leon Baker has been on.

Cool, thanks for letting me know.
Will have to track that one down on youtube if it is there.

 

[PerfectFooty]

Didn't mind Jako the other day, however i did find most of the interview was spent talking about other people, hardly himself. That includes beloved Allen

 

[Ok Boomer]

He needs to drop the 'tainted' stuff or the steroid rumours when interviewing Eagles guys, we have heard it all before. Would have been much more interesting hearing about Glen talking about him wanting the captaincy and the Ken Judge era and what went wrong there.

Exactly..."tell us about your brother Allan (half chubby), now tell us about CAREY (full chubby)....oh you guys were on drugs weren't you to get so big, tell us about your mate who died of a drug overdose...now the 06 flag that's tainted isn't it Jako... bit harsh considering he is one of WA's all time greats.

Jako was a top player in the comp for me in the early-mid nineties, 276 games plus the 50 odd as a kid at Souths. He had Carey's measure - yes it is easier for a defender but still he consistently beat him. I was surprised he was only an AA 2 times.

 

[jimbler]

Weird, but I thought that Jakovich episode was a repeat when I was watching it. Maybe because he's answered those Carey questions 11,364 times before.

 

[ize_]

****en hell, I just realized that I had merged Allen Jackovich and Mark "Jacko" Jackson in my brain.

I wouldn't have minded some discussion about what it was like to be part of that Eagles dominant defensive unit. That back 6 was awesome.

 

[Belnakor]

felt like the interview could have gone for an extra 30 minutes, didn't mention much about the 1992/1994 flag (Jako was basically still a kid in 1992 - freak)

Jako isn't the sharpest tool in the shed so i thought he acquitted himself well.

 

[Belnakor]

I'd like to see more journos and administrators, surely that's a relatively untapped guest pool. The one with Caro was good. Think what a wide array of issues journos confront or report on in their time in footy. Plus they probably all know stuff that we don't know.

Surely Dennis Cometti would be a good one. Though he does have the whole other sports thing, maybe the interview would be abit more limiting.

Him and JB would be good before their respective tenures are up (JB handing his presidency over to Ben Buckley and Den retiring.)

 

[PastiesPeake]

I would have liked Mike to touch on the Adrian Barich / Jako fued with Jak threatening to take Barra to court if he didn't drop his "takin the piss out of Jako" routine.

good point - its not rocket surgery after all.

the other gag is the one where Jakovich played a prank wearing a balaclava - the only problem was he was wearing his eagles jumper which had his number on the back.

Jake King this week - preview snippet certainly looks interesting
