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...

And he gets the first set.

I can’t be bothered to watch - I’m doing housework instead

I might watch the BBC highlights later to see Fed and his magic cream and have a rest from Frew!

I'm amazed Frew hasn't lost his voice by now poor feller, he's been on every day!!

Yes this is one of those matches that sort of looked over in about the third game. Sorry Milos. I wish he would turn it around but I just think that head to head must be almost impossible to overcome.

If, in a couple of hours, he's doing an interview saying "no-one beats Milos Raonic 10 times in a row" I'll take it back

Just reading about Martina and Mac protesting by holding up a sign saying Evonne Goolagong Arena!!

Apparently Martina tried to make a speech from the ump's chair after her legends match, but they cut the TV feed!!

I'm not watching. I'm all Frewed out.

I took advantage of the sleet stopping to walk the dog.

I see it didn't influence the match much.

Dh has rung me to say he has heavy snow where he is at work, I hope this doesn't mean he plans to work from home tomorrow- whilst I watch Rafa. He will annoy me.

Oof. 2 sets.

what is Djok up to? this is not fair- he is messing about about his contact lenses. I think this a deliberate ploy to put off Raonic.

And yes, why go off court??

A medical time out? FOr his eyes?

Cheating sod.

I don't think the commentators are too convinced by Djok's time out.

And they didn't sound very convinced by Fed's either.

Milos wasn't put off though.

I hope this puts Djok off completely.

(talks to self happily)

He has withdrawn from a match because of his contacts, hasn't he? Was it Indian Wells? Or did he just lose ?

Ooh what's going on?

Makes things too easy for Fed, if he does withdraw.

although Raonic is capable of beating him.

Jane Djok is faffing with his eyes, and saying he can't see. Then he went off for a medical time out and is messing with his contact lenses. This was before Milos was due to serve, and he wasn't chuffed.

He seems ok now though. Sadly. But I want Raonic to take this set and prolong Djok's agony. Because I am mean like that.

I think Milos is distracted though.

Ah the old "I can't see" trick as invinted by Martina taking off her glasses and rubbing furiously

I've been listening on the radio, but they were being so patronising towards Raonic that I nearly turned off!

Can he be allowed off court to change his contacts??!

I suppose Milkman went off to change his shoes didn't he, so I guess it must be ok.

I wonder what his prescription is!

I’m not watching but yes Djok has had problems with his contacts before. I think he had to withdraw because he kept putting more contact lenses on top of the other which seemed like a bit of a dim thing to do.

I do sympathise with him a bit because Ive had problems with my eyes but that’s the only sympathy he’s getting from me!

Ok which of you lot is this?
