Tomic vs Brands insight and in-play

[brettels]

Would like to read some insight from EP36 and Shari on this match

Tomic huge favourite, don't think anything will stop him from progressing to have a hit with his idol federer.

[dRavidC]

running some numbers as we speak and I like the Tomic handicap or UNDER

[dRavidC]

edit: no play haven't seen enough of brands to know what we're getting out of him. plus he's been pretty hot recently and has had a very good pre-season.

[HeeeHAWWWW]

Brands is one of those lower level guys who has always had the potential for big things, but doesn't have lot of court smarts, doesn't defend well, and is mentally pretty weak. Might be on the edge of changing that.

[Hammondr]

just watching the first set tie breaker Brands looks like he is dictating most of points Tomic struggling on Brands serve, Tomic not getting many winners

[Tmuston Beltics]

The german took the first set.

[Hammondr]

betting now Brands +138 Tomic -188

[brettels]

I thought brands was truely under rated coming into the match but I still think tomic would win

[brettels]

At the same time tomic being over rated

[Optional]

Brands is sure holding up his end reliably so far.

Can he keep so consistent to win 3 sets?

[mdfizzle]

brands will take this

[mdfizzle]

who does winner face...

[Tmuston Beltics]

who does winner face...

Federer

[gregm]

Come on Bernard. Like an M3 and a-tomic kittens

[Sharp Snake]

If you watched the first two sets of this match, without any background info, and the commentators on mute and I asked you the line, I doubt anyone could say it looked like Tomic was a -900 fav in this match. It's incredible.

[brettels]

It's true! Tennis odds are rediculous.

+1


Go and make your draft pick again.

[EaglesPhan36]

Good, tough grinding win for Tomic. Get Federer through this round and I hope Federer murders that fukk.

[steveq]

Hey now

[shari91]

Good, tough grinding win for Tomic. Get Federer through this round and I hope Federer murders that fukk.

Hope he wipes the court with him. Not only because of my who'll last longer bet but this shitbag needs to be brought down to Earth now.

* On a sort of different note, did you know that Fed almost moved to Australia when he was a kid? I never knew that. He was talking about it the other day. Something about his dad being offered a really good job here and he'd come on a few 3mth trips but when his dad finally turned the job down, Fed cried because he was so devastated. He was saying how amazing it would've been to play with Hewitt on the DC team and I kept thinking Hewitt must be praying every night to a shrine of Fed's dad. If Fed had ended up here, Hewitt's net worth and relevance would've been more than halved you'd think.

[brettels]

I think Tomic was very lucky to get through against brands. Brands looked the better player the whole match, even though the result doesn't say so.
