    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.

    Re: Adopted Father/Sons?

    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.

    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe 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.
