OK For some

I buy the Sunday Times for the lotto numbers and so my other half can rubbish the ugly babies section. I DO NOT buy it for the fishing section as in my opinion having Glen Jakovich post a regular article is as credible as Chopper Reid's gardening tips. So yesterday it was raining and being bored i read his blurb - all in favour of Uncle Norman's rip off licensing fees. No problem for Jako - he gets paid a bomb to write this drivel plus all the other slings he gets for being an ex footy star - the rest of us don't.

BUT !!
Doe's he really write his column ???
Several years ago I was on a job with Barry Wiseman (Boating writer) and few "alarm bells" started ringing with regards to Jacko's column !
I believe quite often these column's are written for these guys and they are credited to help boost awareness being "stars".
Nothing against Jacko.. I don't know him personally and thought the guy was a brilliant footy player.. He just played for the wrong WA team :)

yea i wouldn't trust his colums, of the small amount i've read i've found they are just re-writes on articles from the western fisheries magazine, wether he writes them or they are written for him i wouldn have a clue

I'm not sure if that was directed at me, but...criticism? All i'm (and what the other guy's where thinking) saying is that Jacko doesn't write "his" column
