Geezus and I thought I was grumpy, I get shrapnel thrown at me all the time, I thank them and put it in the kids cancer donation box.
Must admit a guy asked me to take out enough for a drink for myself on Sunday from his card but I turned him down politely. I feel scummy taking tips but appreciate them and make sure I thank them.
I prefer something nice said but I'm probably in the unique position of having a higher income than most of my customers.

I'd like to add that I do expect a nice tip if I sell the winning Powerball to someone one day. ;)

Working from home today, log into a team zoom meeting at 3pm and notice my hair is messy, then realise I haven't showered today :oops:

Shit towns description of Elizabeth especially the last sentence. :lol:

A planned satellite slum in the far northern reaches of Adelaide, Elizabeth is essentially Adelaide’s Logan, Penrith or Werribee. Due to a restraining order taken out by Adelaide, Elizabeth must stay at least 25 kilometres from the CBD at all times.

Despite being swallowed by the new City of Playford in 1997, the former city of Elizabeth—now a loose conurbation of suburbs—maintains a cultural distinction based on a proud tradition of unfiltered antisocial boganness. Suburbs considered part of the informal Elizabeth area include Elizabeth, Elizabeth North, Elizabeth East, Elizabeth South, not Elizabeth West, Elizabeth Downs, Elizabeth Grove, Elizabeth Park, Elizabeth Vale, Elizabeth Taylor, Elizabeth Smart, Queen Elizabeth II and Elizabeth Báthory.

Elizabeth is Australia’s version of Detroit in that it’s known for an automobile manufacturing industry that no longer exists, and like Detroit it is now a desolate wasteland with a 100 per cent unemployment rate. The entire Elizabeth area is dotted with abandoned overgrown lots covered with car corpses, mattresses and old couches, which are surrounded by blocks of decaying units and thriving meth labs. Without gainful employment to distract them, ‘Lizbeff’ locals are free to devote themselves to hobbies such as drinking, drugs, fighting in the street, beating up bus drivers, stabbing people on the train, ransacking construction sites, stealing the wheels off cars, stealing cars off their wheels, robbing people’s houses while they’re out, and robbing people’s houses while they’re home. If you aren’t being assaulted by a dole bludger, choking on burnout fumes or wading through a torrent of used syringes, you’re probably squeezing past the Holden SS Ute that has ploughed into your living room.

It’s no mean feat to be the worst part of Adelaide, a city famous for serial killers and paedophiles, but Elizabeth has nailed it.

I lost 12kgs through running, going to the gym, not eating after 1pm and quitting beer.

I injured my hammies 3 times so stopped the running except for when I umpire, I've been lucky enough to have my weight flatline since.

I went away for 4 days, ate dinner every day and had beers at the pub twice, what do you know, I'm up 1.6kgs.

Who would've thought that beer puts weight on you???

Back to a regime now, I've been getting through 2 to 3 games each Saturday so I should be good to go.

People thinking even though the 'deliberate' out of bounds by Murray was proven to be touched by Spargo, it still should have been called deliberate :lol: :lol:

The rule (Law 18.10.2) is that a FK is to be paid against a player who 'kicks, handballs or forces the football over the boundary line and does not demonstrate sufficient intent to keep the football in play'.

It doesn't say anything about touching an opponent on the way over.

In this case I don't think there was 'sufficient intent' so correct call would be FK to Melbourne.

I note also that the 'spirit and intention' (Law 18.10.1) of this rule is that 'players shall be encouraged to keep the ball in play'.

To me, this means that a deflection is irrelevant where it's clear that the player didn't demonstrate 'sufficient intent'.

Turn it up if you think a deflection off the opposition doesn't cancel it out :lol: laughable to suggest otherwise.

May as well give out on the fulls even if touched, and goals now count if touched :roll:

It’s not what we think that matters.
It’s what the rules/laws state.

I had no idea what the rule is but what RB posted looks correct.
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

The rule states that player forces it over the line. Surely for that player to put it over the line they need to last touch it!

Some of you blokes must be pissed,if someone kicks the ball 50 meters close to the line and it’s about to go OOF but someone touches it it should be called deliberate?
