**Congratulations: Collingwood Football’s Superstar MR MVP Darcy Moore Celebrates His 28th Birthday Today — See His Heartfelt Proclamation to Fans and More**
Today marks a special milestone for one of the AFL’s most admired figures—Darcy Moore, captain of the Collingwood Football Club and reigning MVP, turns 28. Known not only for his exceptional skills on the field but also for his leadership, humility, and connection with fans, Moore’s birthday has become a moment for celebration across the footy world.
Darcy, the son of Collingwood legend Peter Moore, has carved out his own legacy through grit, determination, and a deep love for the game. Since making his debut in 2015, he has grown into a key figure in Collingwood’s defensive line and, in recent years, its captain. His performances have consistently showcased his elite reading of the game, athleticism, and composure under pressure—qualities that earned him the Most Valuable Player award last season.
To mark his 28th birthday, Darcy took to social media with a heartfelt message directed at the people who’ve supported him every step of the way.
> “28 today and feeling incredibly grateful. I’ve had the privilege of living my dream wearing the black and white. To my teammates, the coaching staff, my family, and the incredible Magpie Army—you’ve all shaped this journey and made it what it is. The love and support I get from fans, whether after a big win or a tough loss, means more than words can say. Thank you for believing in me.”
He went on to reflect on what the last year has brought him both personally and professionally.
> “Captaining this club has been the honour of a lifetime. Every week I get to run out onto the field with my brothers and give everything for the jumper. The challenges, the victories, and even the setbacks—they’ve helped me grow not just as a player, but as a man.”
As tributes pour in from teammates, fans, and former players, one thing is clear: Darcy Moore is more than just a footballer. He’s a symbol of loyalty, growth, and unwavering dedication to the club and its supporters. Fellow Magpie star Scott Pendlebury posted, *“Happy birthday to a true leader and a great mate. Proud of everything you’ve achieved. Big things still to come.”*
Even rival players chimed in to wish Moore well, highlighting the respect he commands across the league.
In honour of his birthday, Collingwood has released a special highlight reel of Moore’s best moments—spectacular intercept marks, game-saving tackles, and his iconic calm presence when it matters most.
As Darcy Moore steps into another year, the Collingwood faithful will no doubt be rallying behind their captain with renewed energy. With many more milestones to come and a premiership dream still burning bright, one thing’s certain—Darcy’s story is far from over.
Happy 28th, Darcy Moore—here’s to more magic
on and off the field!
