Both have won all 4 majors
Both deserve discussion around the greatest players of all time
Fed reinvented the single handed backhand
Nadal is the premier influence on juniors aged 10-15
Both will be remembered fondly decades after they retire.
Tennis Thread
Nadal proving yet again he is nothing more than a sh*t overrated doping clay court bully. Absolute joke he is even talked about in the same breath as The G.O.A.T. (Federer) in some circles.
What a load of junk. Federer got destroyed two rounds earlier by a far weaker opponent, Nadal was never likely to go well this tournament, hasn't played a top 10 player in months. Nadal is the best ever on clay but worth noting he also usually beats Federer on hard courts, and usually beats Federer in the big matches. And I'm not even a Nadal fan!
Hasn't done a lot since the blood doping information got leaked a couple years back. Wonder why...

From time to time I've had my suspicions about him and Djokovic.
Murray v Djo
Probably more keen on Serena thumping Sharapova.
I hope the Russian wins.
Murray has looked the best player in the tournament and can't see him losing a 4th Aussie Open final...
Novak will take it
Novak in 3 sets
Djokovic is the King of Melbourne. He should win fairly comfortably.

Maybe Murray's girlfriend might try and put him off with her classy f---- words.
Your right Leggy. How dare she get passionate and excited about supporting her husband.

I understand that, but I know my wife has more class than to behave like that.
Murray to win it in 4 sets ...
C'mon Andy, get wired in!

Good for her. You must be proud of your boring wife Leggy.

Of course you are just plain ingnorant and foul lanuague is par for the day. But the difference is that you and your like are really people that cannot mix with ordanary people without swearing.
And yes I am proud of my wife, you wanker.

Stay away from personal insults Buffy. No place for them here.
Its tight but Murray is acually looking better IMO. Come on Nole
These comms are usually pretty good but lol'd when a commentator said "as Djokovic stretches his hamstrings" while he's clearly stretching a quad. Everyone knows the difference
Can't post photos or links on the app as far as I know but Kim Sears shirt tonight is gold.
King of Melbourne once again
Murray has looked the best player in the tournament and can't see him losing a 4th Aussie Open final...
Murray Olds on Radio Sport this morning had a great line.
Murray has the heart the size of a peanut. Mel Gibson showed us more Scottish heart than he has. (or words to that effect)

Gutless is how I would have put it.
Yeah at 1 set each he actually looked the better player but he was took weak and Novak cruised it from there
Murray has the remarkable ability to look the best player in the world and a street bum inside 2 service games.
Pity Lendl had enough.
Another British choker behind Tim Henman.

Scottish in this case.
whoa Djokovic bundled out of the australian open by a wildcard.
In other news, that Nick Kyrgios is a real dick wod
Murray now odds on favourite to win but liking Fed at $18. Wawrinka at $7 not too bad either.
Murray has been knocked out. Come on Fed Express!
With Novak out Murray must've thought this would be his year. He must be spitting. Those Zverev brothers look pretty good.
Wawrinka v Tsonga should be a belter QF
Williams Sisters GF still possible.
William sister grand final on Saturday. superb.
Well sick of these commentators.
Not sure how RF won but....
two more late nights coming up...
Hoping Federer beats Blood Bags in the final.

I think RF will have the crowd support. I'm not bothered who wins I just want some epic points and tension.
