I find that hard to believe. If he misses he should be forced to pay back half his yearly wages.

Maybe they can have a live feed of the birth on the MCG super screen? :lol:

So Jolly could watch it...

Seriously, would a club have grounds for sacking a player, who withdrew from his employment obligations (playing footy), & cost the club a flag?

Cant him or his missus count add 9 months from the beginning of the year? :roll:

(must have been a good Christmas/New year break!!!) delay another month for the bonk fest and it wouldnt be an issue!!

I think they did that Dutchy as Jolly jnr is due in the middle of October, the problem is that if the little tyke is like his old man and comes early....... :oops:

What SNAG bullshit this is. You could wait your whole life for a friggin flag but your missus can squeeze out a kid every year. Me, I'm a Caring Understanding Nineties Type.

Mrs smac got the shits on with me for saying he should play. FFS woman! If we were due for another mini-smac, she would have enough trouble keeping me in the country, never mind in the hospital.

I bet Mrs Jolly would get the shits on if he stopped earning an AFL players' salary - can't have it both ways sweatheart!

They cant have it both ways,but as we know,doesn't stop 'em trying.

If she had been having it both ways this might not be an issue now :wink:
