Collingwood
At the end of the 2009 season, Jolly requested a trade be done so he could return to his native Victoria with his family. Many clubs expressed initial interest in securing the senior ruckman, with Collingwood securing a trade in exchange for picks No. 14 and 46 in the 2009 AFL Draft. Jolly immediately became Collingwood's number one ruckman, and in 2010 was named in the 40-man All-Australian team squad, but did not make the final team.
Jolly's first two seasons at Collingwood mirrored his first two seasons with the Swans: he was part of Collingwood's premiership team in 2010, then part of its losing Grand Final team in 2011. Jolly played his 200th AFL game in Round 19, 2011.
