Murray and Novak two biggest knobs going around in tennis (apart from Lleyton Hewitt).

Whats everyones thoughts on Federer? is he slowly starting his demise from the top or has he still got plenty left? hope he does have plenty left he is my favourite player, always plays every match out no matter what like a true champion and always gracious in defeat.... never really seen him say a bad word bout anyone, i love you roger.


absolute garbage its going to be boring, this men's final will be one of the best in recent times IMO because there is neither nadal or fed in it. They are both extremely evenly matched in talent and skill, deserve to be in the final because they have won their way there and are hungry to grab success when they have the chance.
As for the players being knobs that is simply a matter of opinion, one which i dont share. You have Murray with the weight of the world one his shoulders and pressure from his country (and england) to win a slam. I personally dont mind Djokavic and like the fact he is passionate but able to have a laugh at himself.

Used to dislike Djokovich until I saw him during the flood fundraiser...seems a bit looser* these days.

Biggest wanker on tour is the bloke (brother?) in Fernando Verdasco's support crew.

I agree

the fact that Nadal and Fed arent there makes this one of the more anticpated Slam finals in recent years.

Unfortunately Murrays game I dont feel is quite at the level it needs to be to win a Slam. He is highly consistent which = his high ranking. If he is to be considered higher then he needs to win sunday night.

Djokovic, I didnt like but he has come out of his shell, he has a personality and his game I believe is far superior to that of Murrays and that is why he will win in straight sets

Should be close enough 3 sets - my prediction 7-6, 6-4, 6-4

Funny how England claim him when he goes alright, but when he don't perform he just a mere Scot :lol:

As for Jockitch I haven't seen a dude so cringeworthy since Dermie scored a gig on Getaway

Too big, too strong, too many "tennis smarts". Murray was staring down the barrel of a 6-0 second set until he dragged a couple back very late from 5-0.

My wife is usually fairly quiet watching tennis but tonight i lost count of the ammount of times she was yelling at the tv telling murray to stop acting like a twat. He carries on like a prat on the court, glad he was spanked.
And if channel 7 showed one more shot of his mum in the crowd i was going to throw the remote through the tv. Concentrate on the tennis ffs

Andy Murray in GS

v Djokovic - was never ever going to win and all the experts here said so

v Fedex x2 - well is anyone apart from RAFA going to beat FED in a final

Perhaps wins were out of the question. But to not win a single set and hardly be competitive is another. I thought he might pinch a set or two off djokovic
