@John A: Don't worry. You seem to be an expert on AFL Tipping!!!!

Well, I'm glad it was evident.......just don't want to scare off any other "tippers"! :roll:

Seems to me I tried this once before, during the finals??

I'm familiar with waitress tipping, cow tipping and outhouse tipping, but this one is really out there........Thanks, Cheema! :lol:

Norm, no Fev or Nixon jokes because they are just two sorry figures not worthy of a joke or comment.

Oh well/////////
Why did Fev cross the road?

Because he got kicked out of Crown.
Best I could do on a moment's notice.......
