I think TG-CW are going to win again........ They will not look down on them again especially after KKK-TBH won them at MO. So, instead, they will be striving.... They MIGHT succeed, if Candra stops making errors, I think it'll be 51% in favour of TG-CW..
Agree! Although INA only send the youngsters but the result so far in Suisse really satisfied. MS -- Underdog position for Simon hopefully will boost his spirit to defeat the hardest obstacle. Probably any surprise in this division when no CHN representatives for Finale?! WS -- China all the way MD -- T/C vs KKK/TBH, match-of-the-day for the super-duper MAS pair victory. Boleh lagi2...And not so sure Rian/Eng Hian can dump the Grand Old Dane Eriksen/Lundgaard Hansen. WD -- 2nd SS final for Gress/Vita, why not? XD -- M.Rizal/Gress meet the Korean tomorrow. Indonesia bangkit!
Hope KKK/TBH can pull it off but could be difficult as they may be exhausted by playing so many games already and also winning the All Eng. But they're young so their conditioning should be good enough for them to recover fast.
KKK/TBH are too fast to be halted by the combo.IMO. KOR are the ones who can stop them by the way KOR MD are playing, they have the similarities in MD strategies and tactics....they resemble former world MD champion Rexy/Ricky in the past. If less unforced errors are to be made by our superheroes, they can prevail as they should. I think it'll be 70% in favour of KKK/TBH + Rexy.......
My guess for TG/CW against KKK/TBH is 50/50%. As for the singles, a finals btwn LD & PG would be an interesting watch.
Agreed! All Indonesians, let's support our heroes! Looks like they are doing better in the SO with all the youngsters, except CW/TG. GO INDO!
Agree, KKK/TBH may be beaten tonight, largely due to weariness. However, in a long run, TG/CW will find it harder and harder to beat KKK/TBH. To date, KKK/TBH has only be beaten three times in the international tournaments and two of them were by the same pair - LJJ/HJM of Korea. We will see if Rexy and KKK/TBH could outwit S. Korean pairs in the future.
tg/cw has the edge in experience while the younger MAL pair kkk/tbh has better quickness. However, with rexy on the sideline, the young pair wouldn't be really short on experience. I give a slight winning edge to the MAL pair.
Hey.. Those who have astro and understand chinese can watch 'talking issue' sunday 8.30pm.The topic they discuss is 'why malaysia need to wait for 25years to get gold medal from all england. Stay tune..
INA team... partially young... Ok, well... Eng Hian is not very young. He is 29 or 30 this year. He is only a few year away from TG-CW. Vita is maybe 27 or 28. [Badmania should correct me on this, but I am pretty sure they are not in their early 20s] As for Rian, Simon, Gresya, Rizal, yeah they are all between 21-22... Note: KKK-TBH are also young. So it is about time INA's 'youngsters' to perform consistently at the world stage... Today's matches will be BIG tests. I would be jumping up and down if Indonesia can have 3 representatives in tomorrow's finals... It is unrealistic to wish to have 4 representatives. Most likely, INA will get one or two representatives in the finals. In my opinion so far, Gresya-Rizal and TG-CW are the most likely candidates to go to the finals at this time... [50% chance] Rian-Eng Hian and Gresya-Vita is the next most likely to go to the finals. [45% Chance] As for Simon... maybe next time. This time still Lin Dan... [30% chance] But we will support you anyway, Simon!!!
On the contrary, your reasoning can be countered, e.g. 1. No pressure from the MAS crowd - able to relax a bit 2. TG-CW do not have as much match practice as KKK/TBH, who had played the best and are at their sharpest 3. KKK-TBH taking it easy and therefore they are stretched to 3 games --- reserving their strengths for the Final Having said the above, I think tonight's match against TG-CW will be a tough one as TG-CW are going to play better but the class of KKK-TBH will come thru as they are able to call on a reservoir of plays when it is required. I think youth is going to prevail tonight. Sorry for INA fans here.
Hmnnnn I want to make my predictions also MS LIN DAN-Simon CHEN JIN-Peter gade WS The Great ZHANG-Xu HW JIANG YJ-Lu Lan MD KOO/TAN-Tony/Candra JENS/LUNDGAARD-Eng/Rian WD ZHAO TT/YANG W-Chien/Chen, I want to see this new pair to win the title LEE KW/LEE HJ-Polii/Vita XD RIZAL/POLII-Jiang/Hendra W LEE YD/LEE HJ-Kostiuczyk/Mateusiak
