People often forget Jacko kicked a 131 goals for our ressies in 1980. He left because he couldn't get a game behind Roach and BT. He became the joker after that with his antics at Melbourne and Geelong such as the handstands in front of Hawthorn's full back Kelvin Moore.

I did find it interesting what he said about Richmond - seems he took a lot out of his experience at the tiges.

I also understand that he gave Phil Egan the nickname Flaggins, which was a stuffing dirtbag thing to do, and that no one stood up for Phil until some under 19 who never made it called him out on it. Can anyone confirm this?

I do know Egan hates Jackson for calling him Flaggins
"Oh yes I am a dreamer, I still see us flying high!"

from the song "Don't Walk Away" by Pat Benatar 1988 (Wide Awake In Dreamland)

Pretty horrible and racist thing to say, I'd imagine he'll (rightly) take it to his grave.

pretty sure the spelling should be flagons

dougy must have learned spelling and vocabulary at the same school Dan did, although he does seem to understand that i an e are generally not interchangable
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

No it was actually "Flag Inns"....Jacko called Egan that because he lived in a motel...

yeah, pretty poor form.

I wonder if that's why his house mates in perth set him up to have a crack at Maurice :lol
