None of them know sh-t all about tennis...... they keep stuffing up people's names (Gael just bet "thomas de bakker" apparently) and Bruce is just sitting there reading off useless stats!!
They're all awful!!!!!

Thank god for the mute button :rolleyes:
 
It will be better than watching Groth anyway. Mind you I don't care as I am going out for dinner tonight so I would rather watch Maria during the day.

Haha.

Groth the better player. Hotter too.

If you haven't turned 7 off already. You should now that hamish the tool is on

F*** me 7 :mad:

Was wondering what he was doing in the crowd with Matty White yesterday.

Are they trying to make their coverage shitter?

I think channel 7 just go "Aus Open hosting duties up for grabs, who likes tennis?" Flogs like Hamish McLachlin go "meee".

They cannot pronounce any surnames either, go and ****ing ask someone how to say names. Even listen to how the ump says the name (I'm looking at you Woodbridge).
 
What is your problem with Groth? Have you even seen her play before? That Sharapova match was as boring as bat shit.

The fact she is ZERO chance of winning the Australian Open may have something to do with it. I want to watch the players that might win the thing on Rod Laver. Sharapova has more chance of winning it than Groth. I mean seriously even Henin who bores the living daylight out of me would have been a better choice.

Have you taken note of Sharapova's form of late? She will not win the thing either.

Still has 3 grand slams to her name as well as a final to her name. 4 more than Groth has. She is more likely to win it. I would rather watch Venus/Sharapova/Henin on RLA- they all have grand slams to their name and are some chance. They may not win it, but they are more likely than a girl who has a best result of a 4th round.

Go Wickmayer, please flog Groth.

I hate channel 7, they are THE worst.

Before they show Sharapova/Wozniaki while Monfils is playing a 5 setter now they change from Federer to Roddick while Fed was playing a very entertaining game.

Yes, but this is out slam, not anyone else's. Aussies like to see Aussies playing, so they should get the bigger stadium. It doesnt matter how many Grand Slam titles a player has got, if people dont want to watch the match, they they should be moved to another smaller stadium.

RLA was only half full for Sharapova's match this morning, it was just not a big draw card for an Aussie audience. Compare that to an up and coming Aussie girl, playing off against a mid-range seed in what should be a very tight contest. After watching that match by Sharapova, i wouldnt want to pay a ticket, or go to the game. It was that bad.

In saying that, Most womens matches in the early rounds are not very well attended compared to the mens, for the simple fact is that none of them can put on a clinic when they demolish someone, like what the Fed Express was going to his opponent.
 
I will so laugh at the ratings worldwide when one of the top women players are playing compared to Groth, will be hilarious actually. Aussies may want to attend and watch Australians, but people in the UK, USA, etc want to see the best players playing. Nothing else. RLA is always half full on day 1- you would be insane to pay $100 a pop to see first round matches, they are floggings.
 
There are cameras on every court - so if an overseas TV station wants to watch their player, they can.
 
bombersno1 - I think what you're forgetting is Groth isn't playing some unknown

Wickmayer(seed) vs Groth(very close to seed) will rate better than Sharapova vs Tanagasaradadkajmkgs or whatever her name is around the world.
