Also enjoyed his answer to Danny's query about whether he could make an unlikely return should we somehow go deep into September this year - said he wouldn't be available as the Asian AFL championships would be on.
He wouldn't be the first Liberatore to make a miraculous comeback from an ACL.

Re: Tom Liberatore
Congrats Tom and partner.
That moment there-where they hand you that little bundle-that's the greatest moment in your life. Footy, premierships and the rest takes second spot to the bub. And that sense of sorting your priorities is when you start to mature. I think that Tom's best footy is about to be played.
You can't begin to understand the emotion if you haven't done it, it's impossible to explain
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

I dunno, 2016 GF day was right up there.
You can always have more kids. Premierships are mch harder to come by, especially for Dogs fans.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Can't believe Tom has had a child at 27 years old. Good luck to him and his partner, hope it all works out.

Don’t know if his best footy is still in front of him or not, but this will definitely focus him and hopefully give him a sense of purpose in his footy as his career. Would love to see him back to his 2016 form - god he was impactful!

He's always seemed to be a player that has responded very well to challenges and hopefully this might be the spur to really get stuck into it this year. I remain very hopeful that despite his injury setbacks we will see a very good version of Tom Liberatore on the park this year

What's the issue with his age?
Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

It's a little on the young side these days. The western suburbs tend to be awash with twenty something parents angry at the world because they had kids in their teen years and now think they hold them back. I don't think that 27 is too young but I can see why some would.

I wonder what the average age is these days
Edit: Just checked, the average age now is over 30 for women

I had my first at 28 and thought it was a bit old, always wanted two but the next one had to wait 5 years due to mortgage etc.
Funny I mentioned to my son last May he is now the same age as me when I had him , his reponse was gee that’s young.
I think it depends on how many kids you want I would think the perfect age would be around 31-33 to have your last child.

Well you don’t want to be to old to do things with them when they are older but You want to have experienced life before you have children , so personally I think 27 is a good age,your in your 40s when they are in their teens.
Just an opinion.
