2012 All England SSP: Thu 08-Mar Round 2 matches

It's like neither want it. The winner of this spot gets it by default.

 

They got advice from LYB on how to speed up the game....

 

LD is Relieved now...he does not need to do another Oscar performance...Lin Dan is thanking TH....free from LYB's order and being watched by BWF....

 

And to repay TH, he's gonna destroy him tomorrow

 

Kido/Hendra's chance of qualifying for the Olympics have all but disappeared now. I think INA will only have 1 representative in Bona/Ahsan for the London Games.

 

the worst match in R16 is....

Hong Wei/Shen Ye vs Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong!!

especially the incident around 20-20 of rubber game...

For Hong Wei/Shen Ye, they might just lucky in rubber game as they given free 1 point from KKK's receiving umpire card... next round will be the 'furious' Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae for the place of semi-final...

For Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong. since won over Ko/Yoo as nemesis, now Koo/Tan listed another nemesis of theirs, Hong Wei/Shen Ye, and most likely repeating the same fate that Koo/Tan might lose them all over again in possible next 4 counter (6 streak lose)...

 

All the WS matches tomorrow are juicy except the WSX v JYJ one. Is it a coin flip for LYB or does WSX get the free pass? BWF needs to be on full alert for this match. If there is any sign of match fixing, ban both players and their boss.

 

Datuk's win is not so convincing tonite. May be we are expecting too much from him.

He usually takes some time to play against 1st time opponent. And the dane played well as well.

 

That my friend, is disrespect for Lin Dan. What you just said means that LCW is better than LD....

 

first time ever for Daren Liew to reach quarterfinal in AE 'Premier', next up against Lee Hyun Il... if he can win this, he will go to semifinal and up against either fellow companion Lee Chong Wei or Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka...

 

you guys are giving too much credit to bwf's power.
If a player claiming injury with doctor's certifications, what can bwf do? Nothing.
And how do bwf prove someone is not trying hard enough?
PG and WX lost in the first round!
What if they were lost to team mates ? A full investigation? Dream on.

 

If BWF is bold enough to make such statements, they should be held accountable.

 

That's real sad....Ina gold tradition in jeopardy...

 

Hope Towi/Butet will prevail against NR and 'the one that doesnt accept light hearted banter' Jenny Wallwork

 

yeah nicely done daren, i think he is in the good draw, though. but i will cheer on him if he can beat LHI.

 

is so sad isnt, they want it so bad but they didnt try their best

 

I think TH defense is superb in this match, I saw the shuttlecock keep coming back when CJ trying to smash it.

 

Still cannot believe that..:crying:

 

What a match from Taufik this morning. He is certainly back to near his best ....hope he will give LinDan a tough fight tonight. Fantastic!
