Yet plenty of player in same position if down 3-0 in 4th commentators would be calling for the player to just save energy for 5th set and tank the 4th.
At 10-8 your not tanking.
Unless you are "tanking" or "conserving energy"

I didnt see all the Kyrios match ... but he seriously has the mentality of a 5 yr old .... when he gets upset and things dont go his way he mopes like a little kid .... i dont know if i would call it tanking, but he just drops his bundle and acts like he diesnt give a f**k anymore .... he's had hewitt as davis cup partner n captain - rafter butted heads with him when he was davis cup captain ..... kyrios is just a f**kin dipshit with no mental toughness

Meanwhile, Mike Baird has resigned as nsw premier ..... shame - he was generally someone who went out and tried to get stuff done rather than flounce around like our rudderless current prime minister

Really? I'm not an avid tennis watcher, but I've not heard commentators say a player should concede/tank a set and save his energy for a 5th set. Why not bust your arse and get back in to the 4th set and win it there and then and save energy by not having play a 5th set at all??

Agree but at the same time he has fumbled his way through it. The greyhounds thing was poorly handled as was lockout laws. Hopefully has has all this infrastructure work properly funded.

Plenty of times.... Well I guess they see it as to hard to get back into the 4th set.

Ive seen em say to conceed the last game when they are down 2 breaks and receiving

But i don't think kyrios has the mental capacity to know how to strategise ..... he's a spoilt little brat

yeah that was a bit crappy - but it was also massive pressure ..... most other leaders would be happy if they only had 2 crappy things in their time in power

1. North West Rail Link.
2. West Connex.
3. North Connex.
4. Inner city Light Rail Extension.
5. Metro Extension from Chatswood to Bankstown.
6. Newcastle Light Rail.
7. Parramatta Light Rail.
8. Stadium Infrastructure funding.
9. Hospital Infrastructure.

He and Fatty O'Barrell got more achieved in 4 years than any state govt since the 70's.
It's no wonder this city is a shit fight when there has been so little infrastructure spending for over 30 years.
But, but.........it's the other side.
