Less experienced Gaby White is being targetted for Thomas dan Kamilla's smashes...

Ouch! Switzerland boy smashes right to Lithuanian girl...

**copadh** · 05-15-2009, 06:38 AM

Lithuanian coach shows his displeasure and shouts at his players for letting the Swiss back in the game.

As for the XD, you’re having a laugh to hope for a point against HHB/YY!
Having said that LCW should have a fair chance again LD.

The last time KKK/TBH beat Fu/Cai was just 2 months ago, 2009 Swiss SS, semi I think, very interesting match. There'll be no pressure on Msian players tomm, so..... The MS, dunno why, this LD take it easy or what, during Team events he tend to lose more to LCW as seen in Sudirman 2007 & TC 2008.

XD : Well... KKK/WPT just almost beat the OG gold medalist in the tie with Korea, and KKK/WPT havent been partnering lately, so nobody knows their standard. To me, LYD/LHJ is better than He Hanbin /YY, at least by half level.
As for Msia, Fairuz is blur2, that's why they lost to the Danes yesterday. I would prefer the gusty Razif Latif but they decided to bring the seniors instead.
You sure China will field He hanbin/ Yu Yang, not Xie/Zhang Yawen or Zheng Bo/Ma Jin? WD is just before XD if follow current format, then WD will be some other pair, not that it'll make much difference given that CEH seems still havent recover from back injury.

Anyway, INA vs Korea is supposed much more intense, more interesting to watch.

Yippy's deception and attacking clears are too good for Sekiya.

England doesnt seem interested to win this tie, they didnt field Clark/Kellog in XD, Andrew Smith isnt playing MS, MD also not their best MD, so no wonder ppl not interested. Denmark at least field their best in doubles dept.

I agree with your opinion, only for new order of play. You are right, the official current order of play is MD-WS-MS-WD-XD, with some exception:
if an MD/WD player also play XD it becomes XD-MS-MD-WS-WD
(eq. tie between MAS-KOR and ENG-JPN)

also in singles

, Jorgensen and Nanna Jensen is their best singles following Peter and Tine absence. But you're right, England seem not interested to win by fielding their second line up.

Indescriminate flashing but there's no warning from the organizers.

Yippy tripped and almost got injured in the last rally.

Since it's quiet in here, we can discuss order of play. Actually ah, for Msia, all 3 group ties vs Korea, HK, Denmark the order is XD, MS, MD, WS, WD cos WPT playing XD, WD in all 3, KKK played XD, MD in the tie vs Korea.
So, the order of play tomm depends on who Rexy puts in XD, dont think he'll put KKK AND WPT again, too taxing for both. - Fairuz/WPT,Fairuz/NHL, KKK/NHL. Or if Rexy is really daring, do some weird pairing like HK did with Zhou Mi/Wang Chen, hehe.

did u manage to meet 'uncle' abedeng, copadh?

**abedeng** · 05-15-2009, 07:12 AM

Yippy levels the tie, with an excellent crosscourt drop.

hehehe...after MAS training this morning Rexy clearly said MAS needs 1 point from MD. WPT could play XD and WD, but don't think KKK will.
Will be nice to see Rexy himself back on court again, playing XD for MAS...

(Saw him paired again with Ricky Subagja against Candra Wijaya/Sigit Budiarto on an exhibition match during Candra Wijaya MD Tournament couple weeks ago. He still has good defence and his 'magic' tricks, very entertaining to see....
