I'd just like to see an Aussie male player that goes alright without me having the urge to punch him in the throat.
Who isn't a fan of the thinking man's orange Tim Fleming?

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

Yep the injuries and age have caught up with Hewitt But at least he shows heart. Something Stosur needs to start doing. She's mentally weak if shes not clicked fully on she can be beaten by anyone. Tomic shows again why his probably our best hope to be our next Grand Slam winner. Can't see Stosur winning one.

Couldn't agree more

She was an embarassment last night and at her presser to say "I am just stunned at the moment" WFT :banghead

Stosur is rubbish. Gooch is probably our best in all honesty

Hewitt is a a real champion if you ask me. Good family man and on the field never gives up. I could never understand the angst against him.

That pretender spud Poo should look up to people like Hewitt.

As for Tomic i dont think he will do all that much. When he starts getting into slams on his own accord, regulary, not through wildcards then il start paying attention.

With a Domic style father lurking in the background, threatening to take him back to "his home", forgive me if i couldnt give a rats about him or his family. People who parade around with those threats should be thrown on a boat and sent back

Scud was awesome when he made 2 slam finals but all those attempts since undone the good work he did. He is the John Farnham of the tennis circuit. In his defence he played for the country and never once shied away from that like these other tossers.

You think its awesome that players in his generation like Hewitt is still kicking goals, Rafter ditto and the Poo man is bankrupt with massive debt issues. Thats dumb. He let his d-ick run his life and now he has nothing to show for his career.
His career went backwards as soon as he started dating Buddy's current mrs.

Well got into this one on his own accord daniel, came through qualifying but I agree he needs to do it regularly rather putting his hand out for "wildcards" all the time

If Stosur was hot I'd forgive her

But as the old saying goes, a dog with it's face blown off by a shotgun gets no bone for lunch

To be fair to him his the first one up to be given the wild card we get under the reciprocal agreement we have with the French and US tennis bodies.

Scud is going alright now. The Pooman has been making some decent cash on the champions (or whatever it is) tour. Been smashing 'em.
