Brisbane Final--Soderling vs Roddick

[Richards19]

Smash from the back of the court by Roddick

 

[Richards19]

:O Really?

I don't see him anywhere, is it true?

 

[NamRanger]

Roddick playing alot better and hitting the ball alot firmer, thank god.

 

[powerangle]

Andy hitting with a bit more conviction now. He just needs to be continue putting pressure on Sod.

 

[DownTheLine]

Soderling really missed a good chance at a break

 

[SuperDuy]

I don't see him anywhere, is it true?

No it was someone who looked like federers dad

 

[bezs]

With Roddick constantly adjusting his sleeves wouldn't it be easier to just wear a shirt that's a size smaller

 

[kishnabe]

:O Really?

Yes I saw a light blue Shirt that Robert puts on to every Federer match man with Red Federer hat.....must be Robert!

 

[forthegame]

Roddick getting creamed...

 

[Richards19]

another quick serve game for the Swede...

 

[Richards19]

oh sh*t, the rain is coming... :S

 

[forthegame]

Roddick venting at the ump..

 

[DownTheLine]

Roddick is such a tool

 

[MichaelNadal]

Andy is PISSED.

 

[FD3S]

Oh good, Roddick pulling his princess act again.

Still, these usually have a few humorous bits in them...

EDIT: So he's complaining about the rain, right? Sod's not complaining about delay of game, so maybe Andy's got a point? Dunno.

 

[bezs]

Lol at Roddick going mental

 

[forthegame]

Soderling calm, in contrast to Roddick. Classic!

 

[MichaelNadal]

Is Andy mad bc they are stopping or mad bc they won't stop?

 

[onyxrose81]

What happened? Why is he angry?

 

[Telepatic]

Rodd being a passive pusher..zero FH winners, 85% of times stands 2 meters behind baseline (acc. to graphicon)..just terrible.

 

[DownTheLine]

hahahahahahahahahah this is funny

 

[kishnabe]

Cranky for melbourne....This is fun...I hope they bovker for about 30 min while I work out!

 

[SuperDuy]

The court is slippery, andy doesnt want to get injured, he wants play to stop. its raining there

 

[Ken B.]

Roddick's just upset because the rain is falling in the area where he shouldn't be, that far behind the baseline.

 

[bezs]

Sod as cool as ever

 

[egn]

Roddick is such a tool

Soderling needs to step in and stop this when Andy gets mad he starts actually hitting the ball.

 

[MichaelNadal]

Lol @ Brooklyn being embarrassed

 

[NamRanger]

What happened? Why is he angry?

Supposedly it seems that Fergus didn't think it was slippery until the mist started to come in heavier.


That is what I deduced from what they both said. Could be wrong though.

 

[bezs]

But the umpired isn't asking them to play yet so no point throwing the toys out of the pram

 

[Ken B.]

Brooklyn seems to travel to Australia more than the other locations during the year, or is that because of her shooting a movie last year?

 

[!<-_->!]

It's entertaining though, ha.

 

[SuperDuy]

I like watching this

 

[forthegame]

Mrs Roddick is embarrassed, and not because of the shirt-off thingy but rather her hubby throwing a tantrum!

 

[egn]

Supposedly it seems that Fergus didn't think it was slippery until the mist started to come in heavier.


That is what I deduced from what they both said. Could be wrong though.

He was originally apparently trying to make them continue playing and appears to have deduced the court was okay by stomping on it. Which was quite funny to watch him just stomp and Andy did his usual slightly angry rant to let off some steam and get some time.

 

[forthegame]

If Roddick gets broken here, he will smash a racq, possibbly on the ump's face!

 

[SuperDuy]

LOL andy was sitting in linesman chair!!

 

[Love Game]

Murphy wasn't even telling them to play, but rodDick was going on and on arguing against going out there to play!

 

[Richards19]

is the Pat Rafter arena has a retractable roof?

 

[Ken B.]

"Queensland: where Australia shines"

misleading ad!

 

[timmeh]

No the roof i a permenant structure, but it is not fully enclosed. So wind can push the rain in through the sides of the roof and onto the court.

 

[FD3S]

And he's going back to rolling his FH...

 

[Love Game]

those are some ugly shoes andy's wearing. they look like bedroom slippers!

 

[FD3S]

those are some ugly shoes andy's wearing. they look like bedroom slippers!

Yeah, I love the dude but those things are hideous.

 

[onyxrose81]

If he can't learn how to use his FH he deserves to lose every match. Honestly, I say this all the time but why can't he play more agressively???

 

[DownTheLine]

that break totally favored roddick

 

[egn]

that break totally favored roddick

Yea he pumped himself up..

 

[Richards19]

"Queensland: where Australia shines"

misleading ad!

indeed, that's true

 

[egn]

anyone have the winnors/errors for the match??

 

[Richards19]

maybe the momentum of Soderling could have been broken with this delay

 

[egn]

Did Soderling say "how could you let him challenge???"
