Noticing Adam Cooney has an "adopted" daughter and also that Brian Lake was adopted made me wonder how the rules work there? Could we scour orphanages for talent. FORCE one of our 100 game players to legally adopt them. If the kid's 15 it's only for a couple of years. And them take them under the father son rule? huh? huh?

A kind soul like Chris Grant could just have a turnstile going adopting wayward talent every year.

We should also be force feeding Viagra into Griffen, Gilbee, etc. And even Hawk and Templeton could still produce if we can some how bring on a mid life crisis, and some younger ladies "happen" to come in to their lives. Huh? Huh?

We could also DNA test every kid in the western suburbs. You never know how many little Hawkins' there might be!:D

Well he was a very handsome man. Come to think of it Danny Del Re was a bit of a looker as well.......... any chance of a few little Del Re's slipping under the radar?

Just look for all the 14-15 year old kids with massive schnozzers, half will be his, surely!

Slightly different point of view... How old can you be to be adopted.

Can Smorgo go out and 'adopt' some new kids (Like being a Visy Board rep...) who just happen to be gun under 18's?

Can Smorgo do it on Doug Hawkins behalf then?

I thought so. May have to buy some parents off though or convince the kids to be emancipated and divorced from their parents to be adopted by Doug and live in Smorgon Palace.

Mother Theresa did it, so i don't see why we can't.

Adopted and foster children(provided they have lived with the ex player for a certain amount of time) are all eligible for F/S. Libba also had an adopted son who was eligible.



A few years ago Bev Knight, a commitee person with Essendon, had some connection with Richard Cole or Damien Cupido(Cant remember which) and they were going to F/S him on some weird rule that involved F/S and long time club servants.


Knight was the legal guardian for former Collingwood and Essendon Aboriginal player Richard Cole when he was between the ages of 13 and 18.

Weird, but great... How about the...

The Doug Hawkins Centre for kids who play great footy and can't read good.

Then father/son them.

I'm sure that the new child minding centre at Whitten Oval could come in handy there. Any kid that can kick the ball and run fast could just be 'mising' when the parents come to pick him up.



I'm sorry Mrs Jones-the last time we saw him was with one of the players at the department of Births, Deaths and Marriages.

Wouldnt it be fantastic.



Well Mrs Jones we beep tested the 4 yos today and your son scored very high. He's been adopted by one of the players but never fear. We've got a huge selection of fat, slow kids left over for you to choose a replacement child from.
