China fixing matches? Please read the article in this link - http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1212363&postcount=1. Not sure what different style of play you are looking for. Since late 80's to current date, Indonesian players style is similar to Chinese school of badminton. I agree that Indonesia is not as strong as it used to be. I believe it is just temporary, just like China during the 90's. We should see players from Indonesia challenging for the titles in every category more often in the near future.
Actually i really hope that XD and MD will be the first two matches So that i can skip all the other CHN-affair matches But this time around, i really hope that all CHN players will fight full force As there is no major event ahead, so every players should perform their best ability Not to be confused with the task to lift up their comrades WR anymore Hope today will be interesting finale, rather than super-duper-boring finale
My early prediction for today matches: MS: LD vs CJ, 52:48 XD: Nova/Butet vs Laybourn/Juhl, 50:50 If INA pair able to maintain their nerves (especially in the critical pts), they have slight advantage Nova should reduce his error, though Otherwise it'll be another 2oo8 SF INA Open SS or Final Master repeat, When DEN steal the game coz INA can't seal it off quickly bcoz of those critical pts syndrome Hope that won't happen again this time around, though WD: ZYW/ZTT to win against their junior, hope gold won't elude them again this time WS: XXF vs LL, 50:50, depends on MS result, which will affect XXF's mood MD: JJS/LYD vs CY/FHF, 50:50 They're quite even, The pair with better preparation and more gas left in their tanks will win this match, as both of them must be exhausted after playing nail-bitting rubbers yesterday Will it be like Sudirman Cup repeat? when CY/FHF take the game? Or maybe it'll turn out to be like INA Open SS finale repeat? Personally, i'd love to see if LYD/JJS to win this time Coz CHN already secured 3 gold today Besides, CY/FHF already got one from 2oo6 WC, rite? Well let's wait and see Oh btw, i wonder wether LD and LYD/JJS still have their mojo left or no? Certainly they'll need 'em today to avoid BC'ers top poll jinx, rite? Hehehe (^_^)>
Initially Luck Now Destiny From the 1st day onwards, LUCK already has a influence on who should be in the FINAL. Who would have forecasted the ENGLISH team pullout and the absence of top MD. So as from now, whatever predictions will be just a matter of warning, guesses, and passionate hope until it really happen. I believe the destiny of each player shall determine the outcome. After all it is quite obvious all ten GLADIATORS in the Final have the REGDS Dedicated to all conteatants. ** CHAMPS DO THINGS THAT (CHUMPS) DONT DO!! **CHUMPS: a stupid gullible person capabilty of eliminating each other. IF it is pre-destined that C. JIN be the MS singles CHAMPION, even coach LYB cant do anything about it. There will be an invisible n latent force that cause LIN DAN to be INJURED and retire and give up the crown to CJ, albeit LYB decision for LIN DAN to win the crown for the 3rd consecutive MS crown. However IF, with out inhibitation and basing on laws of INTROSPECTION I will select the following as WINNERS. 1)MEN SINGLES SUPERMAN LIN DAN 2)MEN DOUBLES CAI YUN/ FU 3)WOMEN SINGLES XIE XING FANG 4)WOMEN DOUBLES CHANG Y.W/ ZHAO T.T 5)MIXED DOUBLES THOMAS LEYBOURN/Kamiller RYTTER JUHL
did u see the emoticon? plus, i predicted it will be an interesting match too because this is the wc..and the best of the best will only enter the final. in other words means, this 2 players are good, that's why they can enter the final. get it? i hope i won't see another whitewash 21-4 victory for chen jin just like what happen in ina open.. i'm enough of the whitewash thread already.. amen.. let's pray that it wont happen again.
FIRSTLY LUCK now DESTINY GOOD DAY EVERYBODY From the 1st day onwards, LUCK already has a influence on who should be in the FINAL. Who would have forecasted the ENGLISH team pullout and the absence of top MD. That LCW ,ZHOU MI, ZHENG BO?MAJIN would be eliminated. That the Danish pair would be in the XD finals. So as from now, whatever predictions will be just a matter of merely warning, guesses, and passionate hope until it really happen. I believe the destiny of each player shall determine the outcome. If it is PRE-DESTINED that CHEN JIN be the MS champion even coach LYB cant do anything. There will be an invisibl force to cause injury to LINDAN n forcing LD to hand over the crown to Chen Jin elbeit LYB desiring LD to win the crown for 3 consecutive times . However IF, with out inhibitation and basing on laws of INTROSPECTION I will select the following as WINNERS. 1)MEN SINGLES SUPERMAN LIN DAN 2)MEN DOUBLES CAI YUN/ FU 3)WOMEN SINGLES XIE XING FANG 4)WOMEN DOUBLES CHANG Y.W/ ZHAO T.T 5)MIXED DOUBLES THOMAS LEYBOURN/Kamiller RYTTER JUHL REGDS Dedicated to all conteatants. ** CHAMPS DO THINGS THAT (CHUMPS) DONT DO!! **CHUMPS: a stupid gullible person
It is glad to read the above as Wong implied that Msia is also a powerhouse in badmintion which I am not so certain although I am also a Msia supporter. This is mainly due to the lack of depth of Msia players in games involving women players especially in the XD. At this moment Msia at most could only call herself a powerhouse in men's section. So it is interesting to see the spread of representatives in this year's final which coincidently farily reflect the balance of power in today's badminton. No Msia? No problem as we are not totally deserved to be there still.
Hi guys, do u know any website that provide ibf ranking ? since a few months ago, i cant access www.worldbadminton.net. thanx 4 ur reply.
In the singles competition, now that the major hurdles are clear, I am sure the lovers have enough motivation in them to win the titles together. However, just to be safe, I PAWed for CJ and LL. Women's doubles should be taken by ZYW/ZTT. CS/ZYL are not yet in the right mould. But then, anything can happen. Men's and Mixed Doubles are with clear favourites, Korea and Denmark. It is up to the underdogs to bite.
Some dancers are doing their routine, so too the soldiers who will be marching with the winners' medals.
We're 10 min. from lift off.. ..and my eyelids are now 75% shut..... suetyan, forget Astro, you can watch on RTM1-TV1, can't you??.. *runs to the kitchen to look for some late night fattening foods*
yes, but the quality of Astro is higher. Chris, you can take a nap now as the first, third, and fourth match would be quite boring.
