Copago ought to be in here soon, she should be able to help you out. You will be her very best friend if you support the Tigers!

Welcome, even if you another Aussie!

(Before you get upset, we have a friendly rivalry here, the Aussies against the rest of the world - they seem to be taking over!)

All you need to do is go to the Tipping Competitions forum, choose what comp you want to participate in, then make your selections by bolding your choices. They are a lot of fun, I can assure you of that.

Welcome as well.

please say it's Wests Tigers and not Richmond!!! Tipping comps are fun ... if you look in that forum ( Tipping comps) you'll see links up the top to the various sports that are covered. Sign up for the comp you want and the games to tip are in a different thread which are always pinned to tthe top of the forum for that week. It's all for fun and the most you get if you win is your name in the "FT Hall of Fame". Everyone is welcome and there is nothing to lose

Here is the link to the Sports Stadium NRL thread - which is mostly me talking to myself so feel free to come and join me! This was last years which is fun to go through given the result of the year.

Welcome again, I'll say what I said in terms that everyone can understand! Kiwi's are better than Aussies in every sense..

In a friendly kind of way of course...

What does "Pwn" mean? I know what "pawn" means. There aren't many words without a vowel. One I can think of right off is "cwm."

It's still not a word ren. It's a typo of the word "own." I'm with you as well on that. Clark Gable said it best at the end of Gone with the Wind.

Welcome to the forums benny. Join in the comps. We look forward to seeing you there!
