They still have yet to pass R16 though.....:rolleyes:
Let's not count the eggs before they are hatched....I will take it one round at a time.



He, he, me know, you very realistic fan. I thought Mighty Mouse/Mighty Pillar already conquered the "old men of badminton". Wall havent broken kah?

If only left CCM/CCE in finals, sure Rexy or gang will be sitting in coach chair to guide them. Actually they not bad already, 1st time back together, no coach also can beat good pairs like Lee/Hwang.

[xymaerts]

KKK/TBH mempersiasuikan..

[extremenanopowe]

Now no more jaguh kampung. They are bored lah. Sekarang, kita jaguh luar... lebi mencabar, lebeh berprestige... main kat kampung... kacang la... tutup satu mata pun bole menang... hehe..

[alfa-2]

will CJ be teaching Lee a lesson today???

[eaglehelang]

Now no more jaguh kampung. They are bored lah. Sekarang, kita jaguh luar... lebi mencabar, lebeh berprestige... main kat kampung... kacang la... tutup satu mata pun bole menang... hehe..

Forgot that part, yes, now, with all the booing, jeers & home ground dis-advantage, they are jaguh luar (win outside country).
Better to be Jaguh Luar than Jaguh kampung.

[alfa-2]

KKK/TBH mempersiasuikan..

i like this new word...............nice.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D hokkien + malay.

[badMania]

KKK/TBH mempersiasuikan..

That's a new vocabulary :D I don't think we have such a word in Bahasa :p

[samuel882]

Sometimes I feel ashamed of some comments made here, losing mood because Malaysians lost, saying the players are useless, good decision for skipping MAS Open since they lost etc. I don't see this attitude among rival supporters.

This mentality from supporters doesn't allow our players to be champions, no matter how good their talent. 15-20 years ago, supporters knew how to support, though we didn't have the forum to show it.
U wanna represent ur own counrty, carrying the national flag. u must get ready for all the bashing here and there
Otherwise, stop playing. That's simple
And how many of post u see the MAS fans were supporting them everytime they were playing ? Do a count urslf :rolleyes:
Despite majority of the supporting posts, what is the results they get :cool:
Ppl are free to voice their opinions, don't expect to read every single post keeps on praising them no matter win or lose.
15-20 years ago? Bro, this is 21st century ;)

[badMania]

He, he, me know, you very realistic fan. I thought Mighty Mouse/Mighty Pillar already conquered the "old men of badminton". Wall havent broken kah?


Well, they occassionally lose to Choong/Lee (another arch-rival).

[george@chongwei]

so next will watch kkk/tbh in action in the swiss open 08

[george@chongwei]

what shud we call kkk/tbh le??
the yoyo pair?
nola...juz joking

[eaglehelang]

Nahhh , just pass encouragement thru Ants

Badmania still stick thru his Kido/Setiawan thru thick & thin last year. Right Badmania?

To me, they're still Speedy Fierce One/Tall Lightning

[xymaerts]

ooo.. we use it quite frequent during our school time..Tat was 11 Years ago...
Really long long time did not use it already...:D


i like this new word...............nice.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D hokkien + malay.

[alfa-2]

what shud we call kkk/tbh le??

nola...juz joking

mempersiasuikan??:D:D:D:D just kidding

[george@chongwei]

ok..now wong mew choo is on court now!

[alfa-2]

ooo.. we use it quite frequent during our school time..Tat was 11 Years ago...
Really long long time did not use it already...:D

yeah me too during school days...........which school are you from? maybe same.........

[george@chongwei]

:):p:D;):rolleyes:camon malaysia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[badMania]

Wise words as always from abedeng. Perhaps these so called fans are only supporting Koo/Tan because of Koo Kien Keat and not because of the badminton? It's always possible....some of them only support Koo...u can look at the board and from their names :cool:

We INA fans are critical of our players too....esp when they lose badly (like some of them in the past 2 days). But, we never say "go home and don't play badminton again" or other similar comments.

[xymaerts]

Also Don't know what they train on home ground.. more time to prepare but no result..

so next will watch kkk/tbh in action in the swiss open 08

[badMania]

Nahhh , just pass encouragement thru Ants

Badmania still stick thru his Kido/Setiawan thru thick & thin last year. Right Badmania?

To me, they're still Speedy Fierce One/Tall Lightning

Yup...any players will go through a bad patch...even Lin Dan.

But, non-performing players should be broken...eg: pairs like Luluk/Alvent or AG/Joko. Get players like Bona/Ahsan to stand up and be ready to take the responsibility.

[nwy5633]

let's giv sum nick..
CTF/LWW - most consistent pair in malaysia..
KKK/TBH - most talented pair in malaysia..
latif/tazari - most improving pair in malaysia..
HTH/TWK - most new combination in malaysia..
CCE/CCM - most hopeful pair (atleast for now)...

[george@chongwei]

looks like lee hyun ill gonna win the 2nd set

[eaglehelang]

We INA fans are critical of our players too....esp when they lose badly (like some of them in the past 2 days). But, we never say "go home and don't play badminton again" or other similar comments.

Maybe sometimes you can include media reports from Indonesia so some of them here will believe it. Msia media (both Malay & Eng) will critise about this lost like we lost the OG.

[george@chongwei]

WMC leading 1-0!!!!!!

[badMania]

Kendrick Lee Yen Hui is giving a close fight to Chen Jin, by taking the first set 22-20. Of course, we do have someone here on the board who has a negative feeling towards Singapore players :rolleyes: Uncle Loh should know who's he ;)

[george@chongwei]

yess!!!
wmc leading 11-9 now...

[xymaerts]

Jia Yu....WMC go go

[abedeng]

CJ in trouble, he doesn't like the criss-cross play pattern Kendrick employs.

[george@chongwei]

[george@chongwei]

wmc leading 12-10..

[badMania]

wmc leading 15-11 now..
go choo choo!!
6 more points to take the 1st set

LOL...if Wong Mew Choo were to lose this one, then it will be a real disaster. It's quite expected that she SHOULD beat the Swiss player.

[george@chongwei]

Wow, So Fast Wmc Seal The 1st Game With A 21-14 Win!!
!!

[badMania]

Kendrick is still slogging it out, leading 11-7 in the second set.

[abedeng]

Kenneth Jonassen is an amazing "old" man, he appears effortless, playing Ng Wei.

Kendrick still lead CJ, go Kendrick!!! Surely it's not too much to have at least one SEA Games medallist in last 8.

[george@chongwei]

chen jin is in real trouble now

[alfa-2]

is CJ in big trouble??

[**KZ**]

kendrick sai lei...leading in 2nd set somemore...but our top pair of MD collapsed...they seem like always beat the stronger team,lost to the weaker team...

I won't consider JR/LP as weak...they are after all the 2003 World Champs....they just played well today....

[badMania]

Kenneth Jonassen is an amazing "old" man, he appears effortless, playing Ng Wei.

Kendrick still lead CJ, go Kendrick!!! Surely it's not too much to have at least one SEA Games medallist in last 8.

I echo you on this....but one guy is probably hoping for Kendrick to lose this one though :rolleyes:

[george@chongwei]

mew choo shud win this 1 as expected...

[extremenanopowe]

[cute_cute]

i think mew choo is not in form la.....maybe her's knee injury

[nwy5633]

CJ is getting closer and closer to be in another upset list afta our mighty koo/tan!

[abedeng]

CJ keeps the game competitive, but Kendrick maintains 5 pt gap, this is GOOD!!!

[george@chongwei]

[george@chongwei]

[badMania]

What a wonderful performance by Kendrick Lee Yen Hui as he beat the 3rd-seeded Chen Jin 22-20, 21-16! He has a chance against Lee Hyun Il tomorrow for a place in the last 4.

[george@chongwei]

next: Bao Chun Lai
heheh

[abedeng]

Amidst an INA cheerleader's battlecries, the crowd applauds Kendrick victory.

[pierre3388]

[eaglehelang]

CJ is getting closer and closer to be in another upset list afta our mighty koo/tan!

[ye333]

JR/LP are doing pretty well recently. Last year they beated Cai/Fu once.


2003 world champ?it is quite a long time d...means tat this is the 'old' pair lo?nvm nvm...our msia another 'old' pair will revenge for the kkk/tbh tomolo nite...haha:)

[extremenanopowe]

many great students are from there. heard that singapore almost have a school using the same name. Did you know why it's rejected?:D


which year did u graduate?? butterworth or island? im from penang island.

[Misty100]

Turn on the magic WCH!!! We all want you to win over BCL! Please give your best shot. Your place in Beijing08 will be alot brighter if you can beat him.

[extremenanopowe]

walau... so late already still got game... schedule problem man... traffic jam ka?

[extremenanopowe]

Uncle Wong playing... shhhh....

[xymaerts]

George.. told u lia ma.. CICAGO will lost !:D

[pauline]

Another interesting match coming up--- Bao vs WCH!!!

[samuel882]

which year did u graduate?? butterworth or island? im from penang island.
Too long for me to remember :o Pearl of the Orient
Now, lets back to topic and cheered for our fighter WCH ;)

[alfa-2]

many great students are from there. heard that singapore almost have a school using the same name. Did you know why it's rejected?:D

why?? tell me pls............

[eaglehelang]

JR/LP are doing pretty well recently. Last year they beated Cai/Fu once.

Yup, that was Japan open or Macau Open. After that they had some losses.
Some fans think it should be easier cos Zakry/Fairuz beat them in Copenhagen Masters in dec 07

[extremenanopowe]

Someone said, our Tun rejected it. I also blur...:D I tot, both countries are separate and they shd be able to name it as the like.


why?? tell me pls............

[extremenanopowe]

I gotta feeling that all these chinese players are in shopping mood. Maybe CTF giving them a good pre-wedding makan, that's why they all lembek... or not playing.. sumptious, roti canai, chicken rice, char koay teow, lok-lok, durian...

[chris-ccc]

Turn on the magic WCH!!! We all want you to win over BCL!



.
Yes, let's all turn on the magic for WCH too.

We want WCH to be @OG 2008.
.

[george@chongwei]

walau... so late already still got game... schedule problem man... traffic jam ka?
i think untill 1.30 am also they will still playing

[samuel882]

.
Yes, let's all turn on the magic for WCH too.

We want WCH to be @OG 2008.
.
May god granted our wish :)

[badMania]

As expected, Rani/Endang's level are not up to par with the Cuties pair. They have lost so many times to the Japanese pair that I know for sure they are going to be thrashed again. Ogura/Shiota just take the first set 21-11 in 12 mins. Yawn.

We need to bring younger pair like Yulianti/Nathalia and Richi/Debby and expose them from right now. Rani/Endang or Jo/Greysia would only be a good backup pair, but not winners!

[pauline]

he's not from chung ling.
not the chung ling at penang island,but the one at butterworth...

[george@chongwei]

George.. told u lia ma.. CICAGO will lost !:D
yala,,,,as expected, ciconini will lost.
hehe

[george@chongwei]

tied at 3-3 now
camon wong!

[samuel882]

Time for some nite outing here in Phuket.
See you guys tomorrow.
May the best survived :)

[Krisna]

Go Reiko! Too bad Rani-Endang...

[samuel882]

not the chung ling at penang island,but the one at butterworth...
Wrong info dear.
He is from BERAPIT, BM. ;)

[alfa-2]

I gotta feeling that all these chinese players are in shopping mood. Maybe CTF giving them a good pre-wedding makan, that's why they all lembek... or not playing.. sumptious, roti canai, chicken rice, char koay teow, lok-lok, durian...

muz be the Rojak that make CJ lost.............:D:D:D

[abedeng]

BCL's shrieks of delight are mimicked by the crowd.WCH needs to be aware of the drift.

[badMania]

The eagle wants it and the eagle will get it :D

Ok...news moved to the other thread.

[alfa-2]

not the chung ling at penang island,but the one at butterworth...

i dont think so, cause he is not that good academically. and it's too faraway from BM. he is from berapit there.

[eaglehelang]

where's VChing? He isnt his mantra. too late in Australia?

[extremenanopowe]

Must ask all these chinese players after loosing....

Ni Che ler se mok????
Chen Jin - Wo che ler nei ke hei hei the sang kou... sedap... hehe...
Zhang Ning - Wo che ler nei ke liu.. lian... hehe..
XXF - Wo na nei ke ram. pu. tan...

[badMania]

Go Reiko! Too bad Rani-Endang...

Yo sir...where have u been all these while ?? :D

I thought u are joining Hau-Ge in KL.

[nwy5633]

wow..
many upset from CHN but they are still standing high with 5 in QF and 4 waiting.

[pauline]

Wrong info dear.
He is from BERAPIT, BM. ;)
I know he's from BM.Someone from chung ling told me that info.....:o

[eaglehelang]

The eagle wants it and the eagle will get it :D

Here's the news from our daily Kompas, the most respected newspaper in INA.




Not here, not here, in MO Media News thread. Then you have time or not to translate? if not our Mr Oldhand will ask you to give summary only, he hehe.

[abedeng]

Bao's still in good form, shriek and all. Using fast drives to force WCH into errors.

[nwy5633]

oops..
Bao is showing off CHN power !

[badMania]

All too easy for Ogura/Shiota. Rani/Endang should just go home straight from KL and save the money for the Seoul trip since they are facing Jo/Greysia anyway :cool:

[extremenanopowe]

Uncle Wong didn't treat Justice bao la... that's why... how can?

[chris-ccc]

i think until 1.30 am also they will still playing



.
OMG... that's 4:30am in Melbourne, Australia. :(:(:(
.

[abedeng]

First time Bao was sent sprawling by WCH, still managed to retrieve the shuttle, but wide.

[Krisna]

Yo sir...where have u been all these while ?? :D

I thought u are joining Hau-Ge in KL.

I've been extremely busy... and today, I played badminton until 8pm. I just finished dinner... ;) Anyway, I've been hearing a lof of INA annihilation today.. :crying: Not a particularly fun day for us... :crying:

I'm in Jakarta. Nope, can't join Hau-ge...

[eaglehelang]

Then, the last matches players must be those who sleep late, he, he.
Then more awake, or drink coffee.

[Krisna]

Now only Kido-Hendra and Candra-Tony left for us...

[Louisa]

ppl sure complain bout the schedule...play til early morning, go back hotel, take shower, omg, will rest at ard 3am i guess

[eaglehelang]

for Msia, still have WPT/CEH, Courageous Shortie/Fuzzy and now ongoing WCH

[abedeng]

WCH tries reduce the gap, now down to 2 pts.

[xsakurax]

hi guys..i'm new here..
maybe they want 2 attract more audience that why the game only start at
5 pm..after office hour !
Anyway jia you wong choon han!!^_^

[abedeng]

Bao responds decisively. Wins 1st game.

[Louisa]

bcl gonna take first set, sigh

[extremenanopowe]

Must be the traffic jam...

[eaglehelang]

hiya, WCH lost 1st set 21-15.

Fu/Cai on court. Should be interesting match with Sudket fired up.

[chris-ccc]

WCH tries reduce the gap, now down to 2 pts.



.
GoGoGo... WCH !!!
.

[badMania]

Now only Kido-Hendra and Candra-Tony left for us...

Yup...plus Simon and Nova/Butet. Of course, we need both MD pairs to win now.

[extremenanopowe]

Hows the heat and uncle roger doin mate? express and sizzling???:D


.
GoGoGo... WCH !!!
.

[chris-ccc]

hiya, WCH lost 1st set 21-15.



.
Send WCH some coffee, eaglehelang.
.

[abedeng]

WCH vs BCL the best match so far, employs all the tricks in the book, with dives and near impossible returns. The difference so far is Bao's power.

[extremenanopowe]

Send some tongkat ali one... else he cannot stand la.. or tongkat latte la.:D


.
Send WCH some coffee, eaglehelang.
.

[extremenanopowe]

Power and youth la kawan... full of raw energy...

It's good today... the perfect 20 degree C. :):):)

[eaglehelang]

WCH is a fighter though, serious injury in 2006 also he never give up.

[extremenanopowe]

this temps me to go back to Melbourne again mate... are you up for it? hehe.. Lets continue with our singles game... haha.. what was the score again???

[badMania]

WCH is a fighter though, serious injury in 2006 also he never give up.

Many players should learn from his never-to-die spirit...including some of our INA players.

[nwy5633]

latif/tazari is in the house!!!

[nwy5633]

finally choon han leading!!!!

[extremenanopowe]

are your ready for the rumbllllllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeee???????????? ??

[nwy5633]

all 4 court is full with exciting matches now

[jasonmarc]

KKK/TBH lost...sad..,but looking back...since they got seeded 1st. in tournament...like in French Open 07, CO07 and HK Open 07....and now MO 08 they failed to performed.......but when they seeded 2nd. in Denmark Open 07 ...they won the title.....so i personally think its better for them to go back to world ranking 3 - 4 .....they will feel more comfortable that way.

They seems cant handle the pressure being WR No 1 and seeded 1st in tournaments.......so better dont maintain the WR 1 when they play in Olympic 08.....

[chris-ccc]

.
From where are you watching, abedeng ??? :confused::confused::confused:
.

[extremenanopowe]

I guess everyone wants to get out from being no 1 before OG. Its a jinx.:D
No wonder everyone is so polite to give way now...

WCH disputed one line call, lost concentration and trails 10-11 at the break.

[alfa-2]

now rtm1 is showing highlights.

[chris-ccc]

finally choon han leading!!!!



.
GoGoGo... WCH !!! ;););)
.

[extremenanopowe]

I pity WCH... I got to go nite nite... may da best man/woman wins!

[eaglehelang]

Yup, RTM commentator also critize KKK/TBH. Poor KKK/TBH

[alfa-2]

hope that RTM will show live match of the dwarf duo...............

[eaglehelang]

Doubt it, RTM slow one. Zakry/Fairuz keeping pace with Tony/Chandra

[chris-ccc]

Yup, RTM commentator also critize KKK/TBH. Poor KKK/TBH



.
Will Rexy criticize or defend KKK/TBH, I wonder ??? :confused::confused::confused:
.

[shenron]

Seems like another upset in the making...KOR MD being trashed by DEN young MD...

[badMania]

Tight and pretty even at the moment, going to the interval of the first set, with Fairuz/Zakry slightly ahead at 11-9.

[nwy5633]

hope that RTM will show live match of the dwarf duo...............
they will show recording onli..
i think no live..

[badMania]

Seems like another upset in the making...KOR MD being trashed by DEN young MD...

Thrashed??? That's an over-estimation I think. They lost 18-21 in the first set and are still fighting it out in the second set.

[shenron]

yup...seems like they are showing their true color now.

[eaglehelang]

More accurate would be Fu/Cai trashing Sudket/Pattapol in 2nd set, 18-9

[eaglehelang]

Fu/Cai is back with a vengeance, won straight sets 21-17, 21-11

SO, gulp, tomm, FU/Cai vs CCM/CCe

[badMania]

The veteran INA pair and the MAS duo are still neck-to-neck at 17-17. Nervy moments now.

[badMania]

Fu/Cai is back with a vengeance, won straight sets 21-17, 21-11

SO, gulp, tomm, FU/Cai vs CCM/CCe

Come on CCM/CCE!!!

[badMania]

Deuce now at 20-20.....geez...

[eaglehelang]

Yap Kim Hock comments on KKK/TBH lost :"Yang penting OG, Sekarang preparation, OG itu penting. Memang kecewa mereka kalah tetapi satu pelajaran. Yang penting OG mereka jgn kalah awal-awal."

Disappointed they lost but most important is OG. OG we hope they dont lose early rounds.

Rexy, KKK/TBH RTM didnt get to interview.

[eaglehelang]

21-21 tension, tension

[AlanY]

Come on CCM/CCE!!!

not a chance, mate.

[damouse]

Dwarf and company not giving up at all...if only KKK/TBH showed the same spirit, might they have been able to rescue that match? Sigh...

[badMania]

Yes...the oldies take it.....23-21!

It has been close all the way with the point never is never bigger than 3 points (when Fairuz/Zakry lead 12-9).

If it goes to a rubber, then the MAS pair has a bigger chance of winning the tie.

[eaglehelang]

WPT/CEh also neck to neck with the strong Taiwan pair.

[alfa-2]

Rexy, KKK/TBH RTM didnt get to interview.

they are having a match in the rest room, KKK/TBH vs Rexy...............and for sure Rexy will win.:D:D:D

[badMania]

12 smash winners from the MAS duo vs 6 from the INA oldies. That just shows which pair is attacking.

[eaglehelang]

Yup, that was how they beat Tony/Chandra in Indonesia Open. Rexy must be saying, you can do it! KKK/TBH lost, you must fight to the end!

[Tjun Tjun]

Pls keep posting the scores as the livescore is not working for me.

[Louisa]

can't stay so late.......wishing Mas players all the best...

[eaglehelang]

Hiyaa, Zakry be courageous!! And Fairuz dont get nervous!

[pauline]

Yong Dae and Jae Sung,trailing 19-20....

[pauline]

oh nooooooo....LYD and JJS are OUT!!! 18-21,19-21

[eaglehelang]

Another seeded pair gone, Lee/Jung lost to Simon/Anders in straight sets

[badMania]

Wow...the 4th ranked Danish pair Simon Mollyhus/Andres Kristiansen have upsetted the World-Championships silver-medallist Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae in straight-sets 21-18, 21-19. Denmark has 3 representatives in the QF tomorrow :eek:

Meanwhile, Tony/Candra are doing well enough to have a 3 pts lead at 11-8.

[eaglehelang]

Dangerous this MO, seeded MD out, seeded MS out, Xd also got out. Beginning of year, engine not yet start.

[badMania]

Its freezing down here at 10 degrees or even lower....and my heater is not is this study room :o

[Tjun Tjun]

oh nooooooo....LYD and JJS are OUT!!! 18-21,19-21

Thanks. Please put up the scores for the other matches as well.

[badMania]

Now, the World Champion makes their way to the court at 12:07am...Friday!

[eaglehelang]

hehe you'll be heated up with your heros on court

[eaglehelang]

WPT/CEh lost 1st set 17-21

[badMania]

Hmmm....the MAS duo levelled it at 11-11. Tight match still....

[eaglehelang]

after interval, courgeous shortie/fuzzy got the courage to equalize 12-11 now

[pauline]

Mas MD vs INA/USA 12-13
Chin/Wong lost 1st set leading 2-1 in 2nd

[badMania]

5 quick points in a blink makes it 16-12 for the INA pair before Zakry/Fairuz got another one back.

[shenron]

KKK/TBH becomes just an ordinary pair that anyone could beat them right now, even MK/HS who got terrible head 2 to head to KKK/TBH before.
If they happen to meet again in the near future, I would say MK/HS will win.


Dwarf and company not giving up at all...if only KKK/TBH showed the same spirit, might they have been able to rescue that match? Sigh...

[badMania]

Another tit-for-tat makes it 18-14 now.

[Krisna]

Go go, Candra-Tony! 3 more points and you're through to the quarterfinals!

[pauline]

INA/USA pulling away 18-16

[eaglehelang]

Zakry/Fairuz catching up 17-19

[badMania]

The veteran pair is inching their way to the QF, leading 19-17. 3 match points now at 20-17.

[Krisna]

The INA old lions are through!

[badMania]

Finally, Tony Gunawan/Candra Wijaya beat Mohd Fairuzuan Mohd Tazari/Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif in straight sets 23-21, 21-18 in just 32 mins.

Now, attention turns to the World Champions.

[eaglehelang]

Courageous Shortie/Fuzzy lost to the legendary Tony/Chandra

[badMania]

In just 5 mins, the World Champion is ahead 12-6.

[eaglehelang]

Your heros should win this without any problems, if they lost, would be major disaster.

[Krisna]

Now, attention turns to the World Champions.

I think they can take care of themselves... ;) They're leading big time! :D

[shenron]

Now 16 -7 .... they are WC for a reason...


In just 5 mins, the World Champion is ahead 12-6.

[badMania]

Your heros should win this without any problems, if they lost, would be major disaster.

We'll see.....;)

[badMania]

I think they can take care of themselves... ;) They're leading big time! :D

Yesterday they took the first set easily as well, only to lose the second one. Maybe they wanted to have more time on the court??

[shenron]

at the meantime, MAS WD still fighting....come on, win the second game. Make it rubber game!...he he.

[badMania]

Kido/Hendra breeze past the first set 21-12 in just 9 mins.

[shenron]

To get more shapshots on the court maybe?...:)

[kevinboy]

matches should start earlier

[kevinboy]

at the meantime, MAS WD still fighting....come on, win the second game. Make it rubber game!...he he.

three more points to do that 18-19:D

[badMania]

The schedule for tomorrow is out. It will begin even later than today...at 6:30pm :eek: If each match takes an hr to complete, then the MD will only be on court earliest around 10:30pm.

[eaglehelang]

WPT/CEH lost already. Maybe CEh'sback hurting her.

[shenron]

as expected, no further future for MAS WD at the moment...still has a long way to go before MAS has a really depth in WD department.

[badMania]

Eriksen/Hansen are really thrashing their compatriot.....merciless....

[JR]

Hi Everyone!

I just want to say that I'm truly impressed by you guys. This site is really the place to be when Super Series are being played all over the world.

I've just read through this thread about my match against KKK/Tan and I think you guys do make it exciting to be watching here with all your opinions and feelings put into badminton.

I'm sorry to all KKK/Tan fans for putting out your favorite pair so early. I'm sure they will redeem themselves soon.

I'd also like thank all you guys who cheered for Lars and I during this match and before. It' really pleasant reading to see your views.

Have a good one and see you tomorrow against veteran malaysians.

I'll be turning in now, so I'll read your comments tomorrow.

You can send me a personal message if you want, but I'll only answer messages being sober. Hmm, not the correct term, but I think you know what I mean.

Hope I have some time to answer good questions later on.

Kind Regards

Jonas Rasmussen
