You sure know how to spoil a good match

For some stinking reason we have it on half hour delay in Adelaide so the match is NOT over yet for us that are watching

Now you just killed the suspense

typical tv stations in adelaide and their idea of 'live' sport

Thats the thing that really gives me the ********s

They are insulting our intelligence by advertising it as live when in fact its on half an hour delay. As if bloody Home and Away is more important that Australian Open

1 and 1/2 hr delay up here. Thought it was live. flipping channel 7 sucks.
I hate to say this but long live channel 9.

EDIT: I saw the 9/11 plane crash into the second tower live on about 5 or 6 different channels, and then live again on channel 7 about 1/2 hr later.

ahh but on that the bbc had the more up to date information - the us stations / feeds were behind them (cnn especially) so it's not just a problem with adelaide

Come on RODDICK!!!!

I completlely missed that one, what day of last week did that happen?

 

[Markthirtytwo]

Come on RODDICK!!!!

tosser

Will be a sensational game against Roddick.

As if bloody Home and Away is more important that Australian Open

I was suprised to turn on channel 7, at 7pm and see Home & Away on. Normally, the tennis is given priority!

 

[Cap]

it totally screwed me up because i was listening to it on the radio on the way back from the beach LLH was 2-0 up then i turned to telly and it was 1-0 up so I watched the cricket until they caught up !

SA get screwed with pretty much everything in sport these days - I still cant believe we are going to get watching "live football" at 8.30 on friday nights

P.S they can call it live because it was recoded live - not that its being televised live !!

This is more than a little puzzling. How could they record it in delay? Live means at the same time as its happening to me, if its half hour in delay its not live, surely its in delay. As I said it cant be recorded anyway other than live. The 97 grand final was recorded live, yet when I play the tape its hardly live. Stupid TV station bull$hit.

Too right! I'm sure channel 7 could deal with not having to show Home and Away for a couple of weeks. They show it for basically the whole bloody year anyway.

Congratulations to Lleyton anyway.

Last night of all nights they decided to show home and away instead of Australian Open. I mean c'mon, here we have a die hard aussie who would represent his country with a broken leg, playing off against a quality oponent for a place in grand slam semi-finals and to top it off it was on Australia Day and they show the bloody Home and Away

All the commercial television station suck. No one can convince me that Home and Away would have rated better than tennis last night. Absolute joke

Men semis are mouth watering stuff. Federer against an in form Safin and Hewitt up against Roddick. Seriously either of those matches is worthy of a final.

Hear hear

It was a great match to watch as well

Ahhh I beg to differ...I have been unable to sleep worrying about whether Alf will pull through his life threatening testicle transplant.

Left or right? Been a while since I last watched. I think Bobby was leaving the last time I looked.

 

[Markthirtytwo]

I mean c'mon, here we have a die hard aussie who would represent his country with a broken leg, :

This guy never gives up or doesnt know how to, he has the biggest heart I have seen in any tennis player (or althete for that matter).
Others might have more talent and or trophies, but this guy would have to rate with the Conners, Borg, Mcenroe and a couple of others from the past 30 years.

 

[Jars458]

Speaking of Andy Roddick, how funny is it in the add when he gets hit on the head with the trophy!! Top Ad.

I think Roddick will beat Hewitt, but if he doesn't, Roger certainly will.

 

[DaveW]

^ I tend to concur with Jars' pessimism. Back-to-back five setters will have taken their toll.

Hewitt should have finished Nalbandian off when he had him on the ropes at two sets to love.

The final set was entertaining though.
