Jolly signs on

[Big Al]

Big Al if your married you should know that we can be boss when she says so.I still believe 4 years is too much.

Quality big men are hard to find so I guess the Swans wanted to tie him up for a long time.

I wouldn't have thought he would have signed for 4 years if he didn't have the blessing from the "boss".

IMO she was money hungry thats it.

Why isn't this news on the Swans website???

[Frank Drebin]

Finally! With all those distractions (wife, etc.) now solved, I'm hoping he'll steamroll the competition next year.

If the fool had have kept it in his pants at the right time of year, we may have had the 2006 flag as well. Let's hope over the next 4 years he'll learn how to play without giving away ridiculous free kicks....and McLaren gets hit by a bus!

All the office staff are AWOL.

[Jeffers1984]

Fair enough on Jolly. Let's hope he pays back the faith in the coaching staff, AND LOSE SOME BLOODY WEIGHT! He has looked fat for the last 2 years.

Who remembers him in his first home and away game in 05 against Hawthorn? He looked lean and when he kicked a goal on the run from 50, he had some decent dash.

Yep, I'd agree with that.

Most of the room was in shock when they announced it. I think even he was

Because everybody associated with the club is still recovering from what was a very very fun night.

[woo]

correct, everyone did cheer though when it was said...
I am glad to hear, Jolly is learning everything from spider, so in 2 years he should be a no 1 ruckman, if not...off with his head!

let's hope he pays back the faith by creating some decent f/s selections for us in the future (at the right time of the year though)

The Sunday paper said the swans are still keen to re-sign Jolly. They must've missed Friday nghts news.

Yes, who cares how or why . He's a good ruckman and he'll be playing for Sydney for the next four years. go jolly.
