The first genuine father-son selection to join the club, following in the footsteps of 1992 and 1994 premiership vice-captain Michael Brennan, Jacob played 28 games between 2011-2014.
A serious ankle injury ended his career, but he immediately turned to coaching and earned high acclaim as coach of East Fremantle colts.
Initially having a role in game development when returning to the Eagles, he worked with the AFLW program before joining the AFL coaches in development in 2022.
