If we do sign Ollie up as captain in a year or two's time do you reckon they will have a no flying yourself home clause or restrict how much flying he does?? He has his private pilots licence and I reckon he will start flying home soon for holidays rather than driving home. Plus there are few boys who live relatively close in country Vic and NSW - Marshall, Johnson, Clurey, Howard even Rockliff's home town of Benella is about an hours drive from Echuca. As a good skipper he would probably offer them a lift home or a quick trip to Echuca and family members drive an hour or so to pick them up.
So would we put a risk mitigation clause into his contract? Clubs stop blokes driving motorbikes and doing certain other risky activities. Maybe let him fly, but dont allow him to take half a dozen teammates on a flight.
