murray to win 10-8 in the last set..
Elchegooner - July 1, 2008 04:39 PM (GMT)
Murray has only ever shown once he has stamina...that was his last match.
Nadal displays it all the time.
I think a 5 setter for Murray in the last round will mean its a match too far against Nadal.
Nadal straights sets but close ish sets.
Rors - July 1, 2008 05:56 PM (GMT)
No classic, Nadal playing within himself, but still enough to win 6 6 and 4

Murray stands no chance against the muscle man
Vamos Rafa, he'll easily pass straight sets...and will take the wimbeldon title as well =] :dance:

I expect Nadal to win, but it should not be forgotten that Murray took him to 5 sets in the 2007 Australian Open. Murray has improved since then, and Nadal may be nursing a knee injury that might affect his mobility, especially if it does go the distance. So it might not be quite the whitewash some are predicting.
TheCrazy58 - July 2, 2008 05:30 AM (GMT)
Nadal all the way. The usual press hype for British interest which had been thwarted during the Euros is full back on again and I'm sick of Murray already.

He says he's fine, but if he was still carrying a niggling injury you'd hardly expect him to say so, so who knows.

Good to see the British players doing well. :whistle:

He can do 4 things to salvage my respect
1. Play in a kilt
2. Whack Henman in the face with his spare racket
3. Cry 'FREEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOM' everytime he wins a point.
4. Burn a union jack
Only one of these is necessary :ilt:
Theologooner - July 2, 2008 03:10 PM (GMT)
You do realise that by burning the Union Jack he'd also be implicitly burning the St Andrew's saltire as well...

A worthy sacrifice...Martyrdom for the Soltiare!

Come on Andy.

Slightly more louche than the Sun's attempt at a rhyming headline today....
The Emirates Gallastico - July 2, 2008 05:41 PM (GMT)
It has been a good match, from what I've seen (the last game)
McNamara That Ghost... - July 2, 2008 06:19 PM (GMT)
So erm, this thread didn't get used much eh?
Still, maybe we can leave it as a laugh at Murray thread.
