One of the best readers of the play in the AFL, all four of Jacobs' seasons at Hawthorn have been ruined by injury. He has managed just 45 of a possible 90 games since arriving at Hawthorn from Essendon. Jacobs backs himself in the air and is happy to play off his man which can at times lead to him to allow his opponents to rack up big numbers. He played only nine games in 2007 as injuries struck on three separate occasions.
