I can't help but think someone on DL is the parent of this charming young person.

Anyway I would like to nominate them as Mother/Father of the year, they have clearly done an OUTSTANDING job. I am planning on upping my game as a result.

To this child, (free from MFCSS) I wish you future happiness and a life completely different from my childhood in the 70s/80s. (It moves me to think that this child has only been alive while Melbourne has been good...)

    This young man is proof that MFCSS is not in fact carried in the blood or through some evil voodoo curse from beyond the grave.

    It is instead developed as a Pavlovian response to repeated negative stimuli. If it can be contracted, it can be cured - and we must find the cure and ease the suffering of those unfortunates afflicted with it.

    It may seem cruel but I think the answer involves frontal lobe lobotomy; however as this treatment is deemed "unethical" by the general public, I propose winning more flags as an alternative solution; evidence is promising in this area, as a recent study conducted in 2021 concluded that premierships seem to provide short term partial reduction in the severity of the condition.

    Further study required.

    “Actually, Maxy Gawn and Petracca.”

    Eddie is the cutest and his parents should be proud.

    On the subject of kidlets, it seems hubbing with the families in Adelaide worked wonders for our team, as evidenced by the eight points that came home on the plane. 🥳

    I don’t know whose child Leb was holding while singing the song after Thursday’s match, but talk about one big happy family!

    He may well already be a member. My future granddaughter will be a member on the day she’s born. I’d sign her up sooner only her D.O.B. is yet to be known. ❤️💙

    As an ethical alternative, I've always found a bottle in front of me to be better than a frontal lobotomy.

    Check with the club, you used to be able to sign them up before birth.

    My 14-year old daughter turns 15 in a week's time; 16-year member.

    Both my daughters are equally as positive as this fine young child when it comes to the MFC.

    Then again, they are both well aware they will be living on the streets, should either of them choose to stray from the club that was chosen for them.

    Good luck to the young fella. At my age my MFCSS is completely incurable.

    Thought this was going to be a thread about how one finds time to get to the football whilst balancing one's parental obligations.

    You'd have to know the gender and name in advance I guess.

    • GAMEDAY: Port Adelaide

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
