Demonland and this thread have a great deal in common with the great Leonard Cohen who spent six years of his life before he became famous on the Greek Island of Hydra. This book explains what kept him alive during that time.

Correct. Unless one is a certified member of MENSA, everything on this thread is likely to be way over one’s comprehensive capabilities. I’m glad you understand the sub text of the conversation we’re having here. It’s vital for the national interest as well as the MFC that people understand this.

Could someone please tell me who is responsible for giving this man an MFC tie?

Billings is a fair way behind Tyson. I wouldn’t do that trade.

Remember where you get your news first ?

My research shows that Austin Bradtke's last official game was in a losing side with East Sandringham against Mordialloc Braeside in a South Metro Junior Football League Under 14's grand final in August 2014. The King twins from Haileybury College. Bradtke wore the number 25. Other teammates in that side with interesting names were Samuel Stynes and Darcy Tilbrook. I can't figure out how a team with those names lost the game.
