TENNIS THREAD- Australian Open continues- we're ready for the popcorn matches!

[Raahh]

I am not going to get chance to watch much more of this so this was a bit of a quick one...

Jane very true.

He's even got Mats fooled. I used to like you, Mats.

Yes Jane only we can see the truth

I think it would be a good thing for Sascha as well - he never usually gets this far in a GS - maybe he should always offer to donate his prize money if he wins.

Fizzy yes, he might end up with more slams than anyone else that way.

No money , but known for his charity.

Djok is kicking himself for not thinking of it first.

Vamos

Oh yes please let it be the end of Kyrgios forever in Melbourne.

Why are they only talking about Kyrgios anyway, is Rafa not in this match too?

Vamos!

I find the screens that shout ace rather tacky. I am glad they don't have them at Wimbledon.

It's a bit American (sorry Americans I know you get enough shit on MN!).

My dog is getting very antsy.

oh crumbs

Oh crap.

That was Frew's fault for jinxing Rafa.

Shite

If this goes to 5- and an bloody tie break, I will cry.

Argh. I really need to do some work and stay off the bbc website.

Lets hope the commentators have learnt that you should never write off Rafa.

VAMOS Rafa!! Don't let him get to you.

Oh blimey. Come on Rafa.

I wish they would shut up about his serve- every time they mention it, he messes up.

Breaker

It's a tie break.

Vamos!!

I am going numb.

I really don't want this to go to a 5th set.

we're with you Rafa

I’ve just realised it’s nearly lunchtime and I need to go out soon - come on Rafa!

I'm desperate for a wee.

Put your bloody tongue away Dick. Nobody wants to see it. Bloody massive photo of him on the BBC website.

'Discipline' is the buzz word of this match isn't .

We don't care. He's an idiot . Let him implode.

Well it's horrible. It's worse when he has a towel in his mouth like a dog.

Well, my dog looks cute doing it.
