Now that Ken's management, just wait to see the next giveaway.

... problem is, $10,000 a pledge.

The Western Australia TRF Mafia were getting too rowdy so we sent Donnie "Dalip" Brasco in under cover to take them down.

Now he's back and ready to rock

I used to be cool with youz twoz, but I can't associate myself with 'the man'.


Seriously though Stevo, this was your best idea since deciding not to ban me for the 10000th thread


Both of these guys are phenomenal chaps, bit on the soft-side, but look, even Sled toughened up after few months in the trenches

Congrats fellas, this place just became even better
