With the start of the ANZ Championship in 2008, Jacobsen played with the Melbourne Vixens for the inaugural season. She was signed again for 2009, but a knee injury during the preseason ended her campaign.
Jacobsen re-signed with the Vixens for 2010. In contrast to the 2009 season, 2010 proved disastrous for the Vixens. At the end of the 2010 season, Jacobsen decided to announce her retirement from elite netball after a career gaining 5 premierships and playing 148 matches at the elite level. Outside of netball, Jacobsen also works as a netball coach at Rowville Secondary College in Melbourne.
Wendy has decided to make a return to netball in 2013 to play in the Championship Division of the Victorian State League, for Boroondara Genesis with old Vixen team mates Kara Richards and Ashlee Howard.
