Cant wait for tonight. Probs the last time we'll see these all time greats going at it in a Slam final.

Damn it i didn't manage to fully read that shitfight.

But tennis, I was going to say Rafa will win easily on form but the buildup to the match and the expectations means anything could happen really. Federer also had the extra day of rest so there's that. My head says Rafa will win in 4 sets.

Here are some stats for your ass

Rafa and Roger have met 11 times in Slams with Nadal holding a 9-2 edge, including 3-0 at the Australian Open. Their last meeting in a Slam final was the 2011 French Open where Nadal emerged victorious in four sets.

Federer, 35, is the oldest man to reach a Grand Slam singles final since Ken Roswell at the US Open in 1974 at 39. Nadal, 30, is in his first Slam final since the 2014 French Open. Both were longshots to get here with Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray the heavy favorites. Nadal was 12-1 to win the tournament at the start with Federer at 16-1 with oddsmakers. Nadal is a slight favorite Sunday.

I have a feeling I know who the warning went to but not exactly the one who overstepped the mark the most. Only one poster snapped last night.

No. He brings it on himself and gets what he deserves in that regard, have no issue with him being punished for his manner of speaking to people.

Alas, if we're being objective one person snapped last night. Sets a shit precedent if that's waved through under the premise of not being the instigator.

Time to leave it alone and move on.
