I'm pretty positive that I'm taking my almost 4 year old son to the Carlton game. It is an obvious positive because it will be our first match together which I hope develops into a beautiful father and son tradition. Fingers crossed for good weather that day.
Good luck. Take books or anything to distract the little one. I have taken my almost 3 year old to about 5 games. Great fun. He loves the blowup lion and flame thrower. It all goes downhill from there. Just like us on gameday.

Yeah I'm not expecting much interest from him or that we'll even last 4 quarters but we'll have a crack.

I'm putting this in two places, but was very impressed with I hope was a preplanned move by Rockliff and the club to force the AFL to act faster on new facilities. His comments about the gym room and training facilities yesterday was great to see from a bloke who seems to of struggled of late to show good leadership. Comments like these off-field is what you want from the captain, putting a spotlight squarely on a problem and forcing it into the public domain in the Melbourne press so it makes the AFL uncomfortable about why they are dragging their feet.

So finally some good signs coming from one of the leaders off the ground to try and get things done. :)

He is clearly heavily invested in the club. The best possible scenario is for him to stay on and straighten out whatever is going on.

Yep, thought it was a good reinforcement of p*ss poor facilities and the urgent need to rectify and then on FF last night mark maclure comments on him as trying to to simply deflect lions poor performances. Two different dialogues MM you flog
