[madbad]

Killer smash by Sudket. THA 20-15

[Yojimbo]

[Tjun Tjun]

Thai pair about to win the match.....20-15.......

[Misty100]

1 point saved... 16 : 20

[robin7]

One saved. "Will it be too late?" said the comentator?

[pauline]

ok,now what.....that's a fault action?

[Misty100]

Damnit, suddenly there is a fault ... such sore losers

[robin7]

So ridiculous to call that a fault! So shameful.

[Misty100]

It's a disguise action, not offensive.

[Misty100]

This umpire shd be given a red card!

[vching]

what the hell???

[madbad]

Sudket is steamed. Called for a net foul. Didn't look like one to me. Sounds like the umpire is calling racket over the net but Sudket was nowhere close. Still debating heatedly. Useless call by the unpire. even the referee got involved. Play to resume THA 20-17

[robin7]

Victor, u have to report on this.

[carine]

Thailand won 21-16,21-17

[vching]

grrr.... SHAMEFUL SHAMEFUL!!! WHAT FAULT???? CHINA BIAS!!!! BIAS!!! CHEATS!!!

[Misty100]

Purposely done to break Thais rhythm... but eventually CHN lost... hahahahaha

[madbad]

No matter, a quick kill and the Thais win. They deserved it. CHN pair looked out of sorts

[vching]

it was reportedly a double hit fault. replays clearly show NO FAULT!!! NOT EVEN CLOSE!!! NO SOUND!!!! WHAT IS THE UMPIRE PLAYING AT~~!!!?!?!?!!?!

[MaLiq]

OMG!!!
what terrible umpiring
the service judge also s*cked...
seriously!!!
if i was one of the thai pair id hit the umpire with my racquet!
no offense..

[Jessica]

Finally Sudket won...The umpire was stupid to called fault in the last point..:mad:Don't know what Sudket/Saralee did wrong...Luckily they still win it.

[Misty100]

Umpire is bribed!!!

[madbad]

grrr.... SHAMEFUL SHAMEFUL!!! WHAT FAULT???? CHINA BIAS!!!! BIAS!!! CHEATS!!!

Hang on, do we know if the umpire was from CHN? Let's establish that first

[F-Man]

What a disgrace. The chinese judges should be ashamed of themselves. I feel disgusted and embarassed for our wonderful sport as a whole.

[tohcsh]

Wong Mew Choo
Wong Mew Choo
Wong Mew Choo

[vching]

the umpire is SHAMEFUL!!!! I CANNOT SEE HOW IT COULD BE CONSTRUED AS A FAULT!!!!

[madbad]

ENG 7-8 INA. Close match continues

[robin7]

Sudket/Saralee won 21-16 21-17.....

[Jessica]

Shameful...Shameful.....:mad::mad::mad:Really angry now...Their retribution for match fixing and unfair linejudges...

[Tjun Tjun]

The Chinese did not dare to replay the controversial fault on Sudket......I'm glad the Thais won eventually.............

[newjazz]

wow.. KELONG getting worse .... umpire kelong!

[Misty100]

Bad start by CHN team... and ill fate will keep bestowing them all the way... LOL... hahahaaha... can imagine if the stadium is empty tomorrow. :p

[vching]

[carine]

WMC on the court now...

[**KZ**]

wow...china seems to be getting herself a bad image....i mean they are notorious for doing these kinda stuff but this yr they are really exaggerating....gud thing XZB/ZYW lost....they got a walkover yesterday...this is really unfair....

[Brave_Turtle]

Lets not jump too fast on assumption. Altough that call was clearly bad, not necessarly biased.

[apontoh]

Go Wmc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pjswift]

Yeah, THA won! Congrats! Easier than thought. Stars of the match have got to be umpire and sj! They got active at beginning and end of match.No sweep for CHN.XZB/zyw really off today.Nerves in front of home crowd maybe

[vching]

umpire: Zhang Peihua.... from CHINA.....

[Tjun Tjun]

Oh ****, it is raining heavily here.....I can't see any pictures on Astro...........

[vching]

c'mon.... Zhang is most vunerrable when she starts......c'mon WMC!!

[kungfukid]

it was reportedly a double hit fault. replays clearly show NO FAULT!!! NOT EVEN CLOSE!!! NO SOUND!!!! WHAT IS THE UMPIRE PLAYING AT~~!!!?!?!?!!?!
It's not called a double hit fault. Umpire considered that Sudket lifts the racket to disturb ZYW. Anyhow, this call is a joke. even the gdsports' commentator admitted umpiree is too severe.

Sudket is really on fire today. glad they won finally!!!:)

[robin7]

3-all ZN-WMC.....

[robin7]

Twice service long by WMC. Must be the drift.

[madbad]

Nice play from WMC. 4-4

[Felicia_txh]

ai......only can accept la......china people is like that.........never admit the mistake they made........
The decision tat made by umpire n all the judges are final decision!!they can't change it!!If they change it,nobody wil respect them...:)n if they change it,this show tat they are not professional umpire n judge..:)

MC is leading now...GREAT!!

[Andi Sumantri]

Shamefull. What is his name? I will give the present to him, a cup of coffee.

[robin7]

Mew Choo 6-4..........

[carine]

MC leading 7-4 now

[Han]

Mew Cho needs to engage in long rally, avoid the net play. Mew Cho boleh!

[vching]

choo choo!!! GO GO GO!

[roller]

the umpire was ridiculous.

i am glad the thai xd pair made it to the finals. well done!

[Misty100]

Wow ZN making plenty of mistakes... great play by WMC leading 8:5 now

[pjswift]

Oh ****, it is raining heavily here.....I can't see any pictures on Astro...........
Try RTM1........

[vching]

c'mon JIA YOU!!!! GO GO GO!!! CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[madbad]

Sharp drop elicits a weak lift from WMC and ZN cleans up. WMC 8-6

[CLELY]

Good job, Nova/Lilyana enter finale win over Emms/Robertson, 21-19, 21-15.

[waile]

hmmm WMC is getting nervous

[Han]

Yap, Zhang Ning is playing very uncharacteristic, full of errors but still tie

[robin7]

Return long twice by Mew Choo. 8-8 now.

[madbad]

WMC having trouble with the drift. 2 consecutive clears out 8-8

[waile]

wow.... outlast the veteran, WMC

[Tjun Tjun]

Try RTM1........

It is Ok now. The rain has stopped........:D:D:D

[tohcsh]

Did u see LYB sitting so comfortably on the large back rest chair watching the game?

[madbad]

ZN still smiling despite a shot into the net WMC 9-8

[sentosa]

jeez, i think if ZN lost to WMC today, she'll definitely get beat with rotan by LYB.

[waile]

such lucky shot...

[waile]

good good defense

[spchu]

Another thing I dont understand is, why still rely on bad linesmen, when a simple replay of the shot is made available even to viewers at home.....

(So don't even need any Hawkeye technology which one BC'ers claim is very costly)

[robin7]

ZN looks tired. WMC should play more long rallies.

[madbad]

WMC's lack of offence might catch us to her as the match wears on. She's doing a lot of running. Can't afford even one mistake. 10-10

[Tjun Tjun]

It was on the line but it was called out.......unlucky for WMC......10-10......

[robin7]

What the hell, the lob by WMC just clipped the line but was called out. So obvious...

[madbad]

Beautiful next exchange with WMC getting the better of it. WMC 11-10

[Misty100]

11:10 interval... WMC leads

[vching]

chooo choooo!!
GOGOGO!!!

[waile]

hmm...the previous shot was clearly in...hope that fires her up

[robin7]

One point cheated and ZN knew it.

[pjswift]

Did u see LYB sitting so comfortably on the large back rest chair watching the game?
When he disappears, it means ZN will lose.

[madbad]

WMC's high serves are woeful 11-11

[carine]

11 all now,jia you mew choo

[waile]

so many lucky shots at the net by ZN

[Louisa]

Finally Sudket won...The umpire was stupid to called fault in the last point..:mad:Don't know what Sudket/Saralee did wrong...Luckily they still win it.
I oso donno y like tat....but sudket really angry wf the umpire...........if i were sudket, i would whack the umpire after the match...if not, at least not to shake hand...hihihi....

But only CAT will reacts this way, for a good sportman like sudket, he won't...I SALUTE U, SUDKET & SARALEE...

Excellent net drop by WMC 16-13

[Misty100]

17 : 15... WMC in the lead

[waile]

[robin7]

Silly mistake by the Olympic champ.

[Misty100]

Stupid anxious mistake by ZN and she hops like a bunny... LOL

[madbad]

[Tjun Tjun]

LYB is having cold sweat now........

[madbad]

ZN seems lost, and i hope she keeps losing herself and make more mistakes... LOL

The retrieving ability of WMC is forcing ZN into tryiong to play perfect shots. That's what WMC can do to you. WMC 1-0

[Misty100]

1st mistake by ZN, and rewarding WMC with the 1st point.

[waile]

aiyah silly mistake....hehe but come on WMC>..u can do it

[Han]

Like her bf, knee trouble too :D:D
