Good squad. I wonder if it was on clay if they might have looked at a couple of the younger guys.

It sure is good to see Draper back in the fold.

Austrian squad

Jurgen Melzer
Marco Mirnegg
Julian Knowle
Alexander Peya


Fairly ordinary squad Melzer the only decent singles player there and he was even beaten by Arthurs last week. Knowle is a reasonable doubles player.

Have we missed the chance to trial one of the younger guys ?

Draper will play Doubles with Woody and Arthurs (in good form) will play singles with Hewitt.

 

[CrackerJack]

i think we got this 1 in the bag

My tip - Australia 4-1

The Austrian victory will be Melzer over Arthurs.

My tip - Australia 4-1

The Austrian victory will be Melzer over Arthurs.

That matchup is 50/50.
So is the Arthurs second matchup if Koubek is allowed to play
It could come down to the doubles, where i think we would be slight favourites.
