Jacko. I played against him in the junior days. He played for Heatherdale in the DDJFL. He was the maddest and ugliest kid you ever played against. Remeber arriving at Heatherdale one day in pouring rain with a convoy of cars and Jacko standing out in the rain screaming at us as we arrived. He always used to cry out on the ground after a game if they lost. Diddn't have any control over himself even than. Remember that much more than any footy ability. Always a big kid but didn't relly seem to dominate like others did. Obviously did have ability hidden behind his charades.

Last I saw of him he was on the Goldy with Capper. Under rated personality of footy.

100% correct. Saw his name on a comedy bill at the Barwon Heads pub over new years
REALLY!!!!!! Didn't like his bullshit antics when he played and like him even less as a wanna be comedian.
Dunno about being an under rated personality, but both Jacko and Capper are under rated footballers. Their antics off the field overshadowed their football achievements, which were pretty decent.
He was coaching junior footy on the northern beaches (Sydney) in the early/mid-2000s, Pittwater if I remember correctly. Played against his team a couple of times.

See him around Broadbeach all the time. Does a bit of power walking along the beachfront to stay in shape.
If you can get yourself Simpsonized, you must be doing something right.

shame Leigh Matthews was quickly helped off the ground by his entourage before Jacko got a hold of him back in 85
After it took about 6 Geelong players to beat him up. Wacko Jacko wouldn't have had the guts to confront Matthews ... even after he was beaten senseless. Courage wasn't Jackson's strong point.
Mark "Jacko" Jackson average just under 4 goals in his career. That pretty good
And by not bothering to check anyone and giving away stupid free kicks, he cost his side just under 5 goals per game.
He picked my girlfriend up in his Lamborghini one day when she was hitch hiking and dropped her at the pub, apparently was a perfect gentleman. I on the other hand was charmingly at the wrong end of a three day bender and wanted to (and I quote), "headbutt the sleazy bastard" slurring it repeatedly as I staggered across the room in his general direction.
To the guys that talked me out of it and put me in a cab that day many years ago in my foolish youth, I still owe you one, cheers.

The Jacko's of this world are no chance of getting drafted these days, not sure that's really such a good thing.
