Former Geelong champion Joel Selwood and his wife Brit have revealed they are expecting another child.
After welcoming Joey Victor Selwood into the world in February last year, the superstar couple have now announced on Instagram that baby No.2 is on the way.
With a gorgeous photo of Joey and a hand-written sign reading ‘big brother to do list’, the couple also showed off a picture of their ultrasound.

They amusingly captioned their photo: “Joey’s still working out if he can sign the contract … he’s got until October.”
Listed on Joey’s things to do were “eat all your dinner” and “don’t throw balls at the baby”.
They then added: “We’re excited to be adding to the family 🤍.”
Famous AFL identities were quick to congratulate the popular couple.
High-profile AFL influencer Bec Judd said “amazing news, while Joel Selwood’s former teammate Jeremy Cameron called it the “best news”.
Popular Channel 7 AFL commentator Abbey Holmes said: “YAY !!!! Brilliant news 😍❤️ congratulations guys xx.”
While former Hawthorn champ (and another Seven commentator) Campbell Brown said: “👏👏👏👏 Congrats guys. Very exciting.”
Joel and Brit went through an IV program to conceive Joey Victor.
“We look forward to being ‘Mum and Dad’ and the world changing for us in the near future,” Joel said at the time.
“What I have worked out through this process is that women are amazing and my wife is a superwoman. In a journey that hasn’t been easy, we have found a way, through great support and Brit staying positive.
“To couples, who are trying, have tried or can’t have a baby for some unfair reason, we see you and are sending love and positive energy your way.”
Joel bowed out of the AFL at the end of the 2022 season on the ultimate high, captaining the Cats to premiership glory in his 355th game.
It was Selwood’s fourth premiership as a player and his first as a captain.
Selwood is a six-time All-Australian, a three-time captain of the All-Australian team, and will go down in AFL history as one of the all-time great skippers.
Since retiring he has become a star AFL commentator across the screens of Seven, and is a regular host on the Channel 7 Wednesday night program Talking Footy.
At the end of last year, Selwood (along with AFLW legend Erin Phillips) also took on a new role within the AFL’s football department.
That work involves game analysis, player engagement, and player movement across the AFL and the AFLW.
“I look forward to working at the AFL especially with the team lead by (football manager) Laura Kane,” Selwood said at the time.
“The game of AFL I have always loved and now it’s time to help it continually grow from a different seat which I can’t wait for.”
