Tennis Thread: Australian Open 2019 & onwards..........

[magimedi]

Hope it's OK for me to start a new thread - could not believe we'd burned out on the last one.

Am looking forward to seeing highlights of the Fed/Tits match later.

I think I just feel Raonic had a better chance, I'm not as familiar with Pouille.

I'd be delighted to see him beat Djok, he's ne as pissed off as when Chicken did it .

But who knows, may be Kei could do it now. He's taken all his chances so far. And we not lacking in stamina- he's the underdog for sure, what's he got to lose?

I'm sick of this phone.

Oh well this is a good start

Keith already looks exhausted!

I'm just keeping an eye on the score. Come on Keith!

He looks like he can barely move

Novak hasn't really had to do anything. Keith has the trainer on.

Oh looks like that's that then

This looks bad. I feel sorry for him.

Wonder what happened?

Yes, barring some kind of miraculous treatment from the trainer, it's not looking very good.

Darn it.

Just got in from in taking the dc to school.

Poor Nish. The last few matches must have caught up with him by now.

This is not the match I was hoping for.

I was expecting Djok to be the one carrying an injury after his fall in the last match. I'm sure he's doing voodoo

He's getting a leg massage/bandage put on atm - but he just looked completely out of gas in the first set.

Jane it's the only explanation

I love the Japanese fans - so optimistic!!

Jane I think Djok plays mind games. Look half dead, let them think you are injured.

Nice that the commentators have written him off already though. .
I mean, it doesn't look good. But it's a 5 set match. Give the bloke a chance.

Written Keith off, that is.

They have given the match to Novak already.

Raahh I know, they're terrible! Frew was just mentioning a Japanese player from years ago who jumped overboard a ship!! Not sure why he felt that was relevant?!

I shouldn't laugh Private

I don't know where he was going with it! The story just sort of petered out

Has he got a dose of Castleitis?

Maybe he realised discussing suicidal tennis players wasn't really appropriate, after all.

It was very odd.

Come on Keith!
