2012 Australia Open Campaign

[Wilson1]

Djokovic should still be able to do it but we should not still be laying. Can't see Nadal breaking him.

Wow, Raffa is a real warrior, 5-3 down in the tie break and he was on the ropes in several points but just kept on hanging in there. He now has momentum heading into the 5th set. Remember, only Federer and Hewitt have ever beaten him in 5, Federer did it twice, once in 05 and once in 07, Hewitt did it before Raffa won a slam.

 

[Marshall_magic]

This is the first match between these 2 to go for 5 sets. CARN RAFFA!

Can they please start playing this f**king match in the afternoon again like they used to?

I am getting sick of having to get to bed at 2am like I am watching bloody Wimbledon.

Going to be some bloodshot eyes tomorrow as I have a feeling we are going to see games won in the double digits in this set

Well it's 2:32 am here. Would make a lot more sense to start at least a few hours earlier.

I guess league touchies get jobs as linesmen over the summer.

Well obviously not that touchy. The other ones,

Haven't heard such a one sided crowd in a final in some time.

Djokovic is barely getting a golf clap out of them when he wins a point compared to the roar for Nadal

 

[Wilson1]

Break to Nadal!

road runner... the coyote is after you.....

Everyone loves an underdog.


But seriously Djokovic is a bit of show off and Nadal is a gentleman. Got nothing against Djokovic but the way he acts will always effect his popularity.

Raffa with the break in the 5th, up 4-2 on serve. Novak needs to break him back this game.

No doubt Nadal has larger support, but both players have plenty.

Better than last night where the crowd was non existent.


It moments like these I'm glad we have no daylight savings here.

 

[Wilson1]

Break back point.

 

[Wilson1]

Broken back! Incredible!

 

[Marshall_magic]

he got it, this could go for a while.

I don't see much ifference between them personally. Rafa carries on like a goon whenever he breaks serve or wins a set.

Still, I understand that djokovic is not as well received. He is too robotic to be loved.

Break back now and that could have knocked the wind out of Nadal's sails. He'a been riding a wave of momentum for the last 20 minutes and that's the first thing that's gone against him this set.

 

[Hallatia]

what a rally. This match has become quite epic

 

[Mr Angry]

Nothing but respect.

These guys can play tennis.

Pleasure to watch the skill.
