Federer in trouble here. Greg Norman just tweeted support.

**** does it every time. He's the greatest mock in human history. Worse than Alan Jones.

Great final that. Kudos to Djokovic and well done Old Man Fed. Classic stuff.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Wanted Federer to get that 18th but no matter llove djoko too

 

[Jono]

Great match. I love tennis. Bad luck Fed. Novak's ability to come back from disappointment is like none other.

Being a Richmond supporter who keeps turning up, you're well qualified to comment.

 

[Jono]

Becker more relieved than anyone

wac to bring up Richmond in this moment. My dick went soft again.

Huge for Novak. 18 months without a grand slam is massive when you consider how good he is, the amount of finals he's been in and how many other titles he's won.

Good stuff in the post match interview from Fed. Hasn't always been the most gracious in defeat against Novak in the past so was nice.

 

[Burgey]

I think Fed has realised Nole isn't the **** he once was, tbf.

If anyone asks, Becker ate all the pies.

Nice stuff for Djokovic. Always a relief when a bloke finds out he isn't puffing dust.

 

[Burgey]

Thank God that's over and we can watch the main event of the mixed doubles with Our Sam.

 

[Jono]

Man how do you go to sleep right after that. Gonna lie in bed buzzing from caffeine and tennis awesomeness until work.

**** me Jono, I thought I was sad.

Anyway great final, well done Nole.

Fmd Norman is still at it! Not content with being the kiss of death at 4-4 in the fifth set, he now sends a condolence tweet. God he's a ****. Just stay away, ****. He did it with a Rafter - rang him before the Goran final. Same with Ponting before his last test, and Adam Scott finally succeeded when he stopped taking the prick's calls.

It's uncanny, the ability this bloke has to turn champions into hacks by merely expressing a positive thought about them. ****.

Shut up about this Norman bloke ffs.

Die in a fire ****

genuinely lol'd. Not sure David Beckham and Prince William are hanging around for that.

 

[Jono]

Nah **** off there doesn't need to be a camera on Novak talking to William and Kate ffs. Let them talk without that in their face.

 

[Burgey]

Yeah, cos the Royals aren't used to it...

Cabinet, I apologise for my outburst, but you have to understand how monumentally frustrating the bloke is, especially when you spend 20 years of sleepless nights watching he bloke disintegrate in final rounds like a Sao in a blender, then make pronouncements on other sportspeople.

 

[grecian]

Tbh, I could talk about greg all day long Burge, I don't think there's a sportsman that gave me so many deep belly-laughs.

OH, and stop ****ing Crying people. Honestly ****ing wimps, touchy-feely nonsense.It will not stand.

 

[Jono]

Yeah, cos the Royals aren't used to it...

If the camera wasn't there surely Novak would have cracked some jokes at William and Kate

 

[Riggins]

Nice stuff for Djokovic. Always a relief when a bloke finds out he isn't puffing dust.

Not always!
