The Truth Hurts Podcast with Wayne Carey

Season 1 - EP #15 - Glen Jakovich
Join Wayne Carey and Ayrton Woolley as they jump into episode 15 of the show with Wayne's biggest rival, Glen Jakovich.
Hear Wayne & Ayrton sit down with one of the 90's and the AFL's biggest, best and toughest defenders, Glen Jakovich. Part of Mick Malthouse's dual premiership winning teams at the West Coast, Glen shares his journey from a youngster all the way to the current day and his thoughts on his beloved West Coast Eagles in 2023.
A unique and eye-opening interview as Glen shares his life story losing his father at a young age, playing senior footy as a teenager, debuting as a youngster in State of Origin against the late great Danny Frawley, missing his opportunity to swap jumpers with Gary Ablett Snr and what is was like playing AFL against his brother.
Wayne and Glen talk about their famous rivalry, who actually won more on the ledger and how they evolved their relationship from hatred to respect. Being a part of 2 of the 90's most successful teams, when one on one footy was so critical, Wayne and Glen talk about their era and the current and what is missing.
