[edit] Bushrangers

I discovered MJ was not on the Bushrangers page, so added him. At that time, I did not even expect there to be an article on him, and was pleasantly surprised when the link came up blue, not red. Cheers! Vryl 07:25, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Where it says he "received five years hard labour on top of his usual sentence", should this say outstanding instead of usual? Moofresh 17:31, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
