Summary
Twelve-year-old Simon 'Specky' Magee is a talented football player who trains hard and plays every Saturday for Booyong High, in the Aussie Rules junior competition. However, his love of the game is not shared by his father or his mother and older sister, Alice. When Specky finds a photo of himself, aged 2, dressed in Geelong football regalia that his parents don't want to discuss, he begins to suspect he may be adopted. A search leads him to a meeting with a famous football celebrity, Blade Furlington, whom he believes may be his father.
