I think Stability in the Men's Double is hard to find at the moment, assuming that this is the event that Malaysia has the best chance of winning. Koo and Tan are indeed a stable pair, but there are contenders. Tony and Candra ? Fu and Cai ? The Korean pairs ? All of these pairs are very strong and are always looking for ways to beat each other. IMO I think the koreans have a strong game, but the confidence isn't necessariliy there. For the Chinese, their game is rather predictable and so reading their movements shouldn't be a problems, the challenge is keeping up with their movements. Overall, I think koo/tan will probably make the final, and if tony and candra are in the AE, then my money is on Tony/Candra. If not I'm rooting for the Koreans. alfa2 I certainly couldn't tell that you were were joking, and it feels like your attacking Wong8Egg. Please keep the thread and the forum clean.
probably to playsafe, i would place my bet on koo/tan, cai/fu, tony/candra, yongdae/jaesung.... but apparently,the chinese pair isn't doin so well just like LCW is now.. haha
yeah I'd prefer a showdown between them because I really felt that Candra was really lacking at the back during the MO open. Same thing during the KO open. Maybe it's the sign of the times T_T. But if Candra can regain his mojo at the back of the court, then bam ! we've got GGs going !
yes.... candra is quite a "mistake-maker" guy... haha and tony seems to be the "backbone" of the partnership..... candra din seem to play at his best in KO & MO.... AE, he can do amendments about it.. ahaha
The QUESTION THE ANSWER Angelou, i guess these posts by Wong8Egg are NOT offensive at all......Let you be the judge. In the mean time, i'll go get myself a beer. D*mn desperately i need one right now.
Word ! It was great when they came back in, I mean they were pumped and ready to kick butt ! But in recent events, it feels like that desire is starting to slip. Have they actually won a all england together ? Alfa2 How about this ! you both say your sorry. Plain and simple. Cuz you were both at fault. Wong8Egg made a comment you didn't like, and you said bad things about Wong, then it became a typical bashing match. This is forum for discussion, making negative comments about the character of the people on the forum just degrades it. Sorry for saying that you were the only one at fault.
Angelou and TJL, it all really started off from me as a joke, nothing serious.....hehehe.... The joke is on LYB. It's just a reply to someone who thought that MAS wont have a chance in AE unless CHI redraws from the tournament, but things got out of hand when someone dun like my joke and starting to get serious and being harsh on MAS team ...... likewise i've made dozens of jokes on other players as well, e.g. the all time yoyo champion hafiz....after all it doesnt really mean anything and it's just a joke. I dont mean any harm. By the way, im sure if CW/TG have more chance to train together, AE will be the episode of "The Empire Strikes Back"!!! However KKK/TBH wont go down without an interesting light saber encounter with them.
Off topic-Yes, to be exact.. ...Tony & Candra, they won it together in 1999: http://tonygunawan.net/me.html
omg omg omg ! tony plays games and watches anime. I do all that stuff too ! lol not like everybody else doesn't ^^
hehehe....me too. hope that makes me a good double player as well. it seems that he's a very nice guy from that pic on the website.
yup yup, on a different note though, unfortunately it seems like Tony isn't satisfied his recent losses when I read his reflection on them. I haven't seen the full match, but I can agree with Gunawan that they don't have the stability. It's like as if they've lost their telepathy as brothers T_T. Perhaps a little more communication ?
he isnt satisfied coz he can feel that they can do better than KKK/TBH (which he is in terms of experience, doubles strategy, but the young ones will have better speed and stamina) if CW/TG have to chance to practice more together, then it would be one of the match of the decade if they were to meet with KKK/TBH at AE final .
