Agree with Neville that it would work leaving the last verse off and altering the kid to his son but then also like the repetition of the first verse in the last verse as it ties it all together.

Isn't it great to see Neville Briggs, patron of the AFL (anti-football league) immersing himself in some footbrawling culture :D

Goodonya Nev! I agree with your tip on the climax . . . it ties it off in a more subtle way.
