michswiss, look forward to being a part of your expanded FT social scene. I think you're going to fit in just nicely, after re-reading the entire thread tonight.
I have a number of clients on 457 visa's (who particularly looked at the superannuation issue), so PM me if you have any further questions.
Just to get the story straight, yes the Brisbane Lions are the team to support. Just to clarify, Brisbane Lions were formed 1996/1997 season they as a merger between the Brisbane Bears formed in 1987, and Fitzroy Lions who were one of the 8 original teams when the competition started back in
1897.
Footscray are now the Western Bulldogs.
