Bradley "Brad" Moran (born 29 September 1986 in England) is a former Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League. ==Early life== Born in Solihull〔(Brad Moran )〕 in the West Midlands of England to English parents, his father Martyn was a former junior soccer player. Moran grew up in Stratford-upon-Avon with dreams of becoming a soccer player. As a youth, he represented West Midlands county in rugby union. He was also a representative soccer player. Moran moved to Australia with his family as a 15-year-old, looking to pursue a career in rugby. One of his school friends encouraged him to try Aussie Rules with the Surfers Paradise AFC juniors, where he was mentored by former Brisbane Bears captain Roger Merrett. He took to the game quickly and developed a passion for it. His high school, The Southport School had a policy against Australian Football being part of its curriculum, so he had to remain playing club football and instead also played rowing and basketball at school. Moran quickly showed ability and talent in the ruck. He broke his wrist leading up to the Under 18 national championships, which set back his recruitment. However, after playing football with the Southport Sharks, at age 18 he was recruited to the elite level by the Kangaroos Football Club in the 2004 AFL Draft.〔(Moran shines first-up )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brad Moran (footballer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
