Welcome to The Rovers - the first fansite for both Arianne Zucker and Matthew Ashford, as well as their characters Nicole Walker and Jack Deveraux. I decided to create this site because these two actors happen to be two of my favorites from Days of Our Lives, and I thought it would be great fun to have a place to support them both. I have always wanted to see these two interact, and I have absolutely no boundaries, as to how far I would like to see them go. I'd like to see the show create and maintain a friendship between the two, because I feel the characters are in many ways similar - imperfect, quirky, etc. I would also like to see them working together - Jack was a journalist for the Salem Spectator, Nicole was a reporter for the news - how can they not go there?!?!?! It's perfect! And because Jack and Nicole have both been bruised by their love interests, yes I wouldn't mind seeing them turn to each other for a bit. Jennifer's had numerous love interests, yet for Jack, that's always been limited. Can't the guy have his own fun for once? So I am very open minded when it comes down to Jacole as you can see, and I welcome posters with any opinion. Fan wars can be so lame, and I thought this could be a great opportunity to reunite DOOL fans from all corners with a mutual love of Arianne Zucker and Matthew Ashford. If you've joined us, I assume you feel the same way, and I welcome you to the site! You may be wondering where I came up with the site's name "Rovers" - a name that has been used to describe hobos. I decided with the name based on the fact it is a term used to describe wanderers. I guess you could argue that both Nicole and Jack have literally wandered around a lot, but I think it's even more appropriate based on the fact that as people they've wandered a lot with who they are. Neither of them are perfect, and they've had to do a lot of soul-searching, and for that I think it is fitting. There's also the term "Roving Reporter", which would be fitting for either Jack or Nicole. So I thought the name worked - let me know if you think I'm crazy for it! LOL!I look forward to posting with everyone! Have fun! |

Hello...I am a huge Matthew Ashford fan and have been since the eighties. I am not happy with the way they are treating his return and would love to see JACK get a chance to be involved with someone else for a change. I have even written a fanfiction about ..but with a character I wrote. Anyway Happy to join and see some new ideas for my favorite character ! |

Hello, i'm glad i could join this cool fansite. Can't wait to see & post with all the other members. I like Jack & Nikki & they could be a very interesting & intriguing pairing if they went that way. The name Rovers reminds me of a bar name from another soap i watch~ Coronation St, Go figure! |

Awesome board! Even though I am new to this show when compared to everyone else I have come to love and enjoy Jack as a character right off the bat. Nicole I have enjoyed watching ever since I started watching the show, which was when the baby switch was happening. I really think it would be fun to these two interact and enjoy themselves for a change. |

Hey everyone! Good to see some familiar faces here! *waves* Not really happy with how MarDar are treating Nicole and Jack right now. It's really disgusting how they throw Jack under the bus to prop the Cheeto. I don't believe for one second that Jennifer is torn between Cheeto and Jack. It's Team Jack all the way, y'all! As for Nicole, I'm not really happy with the constant flip-flopping between men who treat her like crap. I like both Bricole and EJole (although my number preference would be Bricole), but I think she needs a long break from those two. I would love for Eric to come back, but since that seems unlikely right now, I'm totally for Jacole! I'd love to see Jack and Nicole with a love-hate relationship (rival reports hooking up -- how hot would that be, man?!). Or maybe even as allies or friends-with-benefits. Arianne Zucker and Matt Ashford would be great together! Their characters are really similar -- both gray, misunderstood, fabulously snarky characters. There's so many storyline possibilities; MarDar should totally explore these two! ![]() Anyway, I'm glad to be a part of this board! Looking forward to posting with all of you! |

Hello everyone. My name is Lee Ann but you will see me listed as gryffindorsmom on most forums (D2D and DR) or laylaismygirl (twitter). I found out about this site on twitter - thank you Jacole fans. It's starting to sound like a broken record but here goes . . . I've been watching DOOL since the very early 70s. I continued to watch through high school, college, early work days, marriage, babies,etc. I even had a small tv in my office so I wouldn't have to depend on my VHS player! I had my share of favorite characters, storylines etc. but did not become an obsessed fan until the unfolding of the J&J relationship. It has always been an attraction to the character of Jack Deveraux and the brilliance of Matt Ashford for me. I love the idea of a some type of relationship between Jack and Nicole. I thought I was a die hard J&J fan but I'm starting to doubt that belief. I didn't think I could change that quickly but last week's episodes have nearly accomplished it. I'm truly scared about Monday's show as the written description almost made me physically ill. I think I will back off from the spoilers for a while until the writing takes a turn in my guy's direction. Anyway, glad to be here in celebration of two such interesting/charismatic daytime characters. Let's see where it takes us . . . P.S. I have no words to describe my dislike of Dr. Daniel Jonas. |

Hello everyone, I'm Shari (Bundtcake on D2D and SOC), I have been a Jack and Jennifer fan since 1990, when I was a freshman in college. Not too happy with Jennifer's choices of late. I will always like her, but she's kind of making me mad right now. I am one of those people who can become easily annoyed with characters on soaps. I can honestly say that Nicole has never annoyed me. I enjoy her scenes. The Jack/Nicole scenes from the last go-around were very entertaining. Hopefully we will get some more this time. I wouldn't be opposed to them becoming close. |

Hello everyone! Let me just start off by saying that I am an Ejami fan (no tomatoes please) but that in no way means that I can't appreciate the character of Nicole Walker. In addition to being an EJami fan I am also a Bricole fan. Jack is one of my personal faves and I am glad that he is one of the ones chosen to come back. I think there are countless of possibilities for Jacole and I am curious to see if these writers see that as well. I believe that Jack and Jen like Bo and Hope are practically an institution and may very well be kept together but I certainly wouldn't mind a detour to Jacole. I am not very happy with Brady's new characterization and there again leads me to be okay with Nicole moving towards Jack. I look forward to posting here and seeing if these writers will be courageous enough to try Jacole. |

Hi, I'm Ally. What can I say about myself? I am a huge fan of Arianne Zucker and Matt Ashford, as well as their characters. I saw Matt Ashford on stage last summer (2010) when he came here to do Mama Mia... Some of my friends think that's the only reason why I went Pairings I love: Jack/Jenn, Brady/Nicole, Nicole/EJ, Brady/Ally..(among others) I tweet as allysm and I'm known to sometimes get information out of the others without them realizing it.. Ha I am also a huge Eric Martsolf fan, been a fan AND supporter of his since July 2002 - yes, since the Passions days. I think I've rambled enough here, but feel free to shoot any questions my way. |

Hi Ally!!! Good to see you here. I love both Jack and Nicole and the fact that they are both a bit quirky. As AZ stated, Nicole needs to get away from Brady and EJ, as they are no good for her. Now that Jack is back, I would love to see him and Nicole interact and work on the Salem Spectator together. Both have a comedic flair, so their scenes should be a lot of fun. |
