Great poster

You mean to say you don't think Tomic should be mentioned in the same breath as the other 2?

Don't be such a haytur. Bernie is da man - and if you don't believe me, you can ask him.

And I wish Crocodile Dunblane the best for this tournament. Although a Federer fan at heart, I won't be upset if Murray beats him (assuming both get there) and goes on to take the title. Actually, I'd love for him to really stamp his mark on slams, and become more than a one slam wonder (not that's viewed as one). I'm sure he will, whether two weeks today, or later in the year he'll bag a few more.

Nice words mate - I know Murray hasn't always been a favourite of yours in the past.

I think people are starting to see the real Murray - that and the bouts of on court teenage behaviour seem to be abating.

FWIW I'm not writing the old fella off yet - can he see him bagging another slam this year and it wouldn't surprise me if it was down under - if he can get past Bernie if course

Given that the real Crocodile Dundee shot and killed a man, Murray is the last person who'd want to be associated with him, but I admit I'm being completely humourless here.

Yes, they do seem to be abating. I'm glad of this. He's a great talent, and a nice guy.

As for the old man, he may have had some tough battles in the past to get 17 major titles, but that is NOTHING compared to his possible 3R encounter with the God Almi-, sorry, - Bernie, as he's known to the rest of you mere mortals!

But by stating that last sentence, you've MADE it amusing. Well, to me at least

Well done poster!

...but he may need a brief cameo from a tornado to win another slam.

The poster is telling us that Bernard Tomic is going to win Roland Garros 2013!

What do you think the giant crocodiles are for mate? Couple of swishes of their tails and it'll be like Kansas in May.

Q. Excuse me Mr. Tomic, can you confirm reports that you are, indeed, the Man?

BT. Yes, yes I am.
