A father has shared a heated Facebook post after his son's beloved Auskick footy was stolen by a 'mongrel' spectator at an AFL game.
Jarrod Dwyer and his five-year-old son enjoyed a kick-to-kick after the final siren at the Richmond Tigers game on Sunday afternoon and were shocked after realising the football had been stolen.
Mr Dwyer uploaded a heartbreaking photo of his son in tears to Facebook in a hope the thief will 'find some morality' and return his son's 'favourite possession on earth'.
'To the mongrel who stole my five-year-old son's Auskick footy... You have broken the poor kid's heart,' Mr Dwyer wrote.

Mr Dwyer uploaded a heartbreaking photo of his crying son to Facebook in a hope the thief will 'find some morality' and return his sons's 'favourite possession on earth'
'I hope this photo finds you and you find some morality by contacting Auskick or Richmond FC to return it to him.
'It won't be hard, they both have his contact details and his full name is on the ball you stole'.
After it was shared on Sunday, the post was screenshot and shared on various AFL Instagram pages with the hashtag #findthefooty.
A Richmond FC spokesperson said they had been in contact with the Dwyer family.
The MCG re-introduced the kick-to-kick this year, where families are allowed to come onto the ground for a kick after the final siren
It is believed the young boy participates in the Auskick program where children attend weekly coaching sessions to learn AFL skills.

Actually heard it was a stunt by the family. Knew if they got a family friend to "steal" the ball and post a thing on Facebook then the RFC couldn't resist a good PC story. Were hoping to meet a few players and get some free stuff :clapping

.....and the old man pinched the kid to make him cry for the photo...

Probably told the kid, immediately after the game, that he had to follow Richmond or he wouldn't be fed.
