    I want to see LCW against SDK again - just like in WC 2007, I want see if the history will repeat itself or if LCW will redeem himself. At that time LCW was WR#2 and had home court advantage and was most favorable to win over SDK; but the end result was different.

    First, LCW needs to take care of the dark horse NTM and we shall see...

    Just for the heck of it:

    What would your reaction be if the two dark horses NTM beat mighty LCW and Dicky Palyama beat Super Dan ??? (Dicky has the right to be the dark horse after he toppled BCL in two sets.

    Hmmm, lots of interesting matches ,-)

    Day 4, Round of 16
    Lots of interesting matches involving giant clash, dark horses and possible upsets :cool:
    For INA camp, i hope there's not too much casualties who following Firda and BoSan's footsteps
    But today the "massacre" seems inevitable :eek:
    Though i hope they prove me wrong. Okay lets get started:
    WD:
    GeNit vs DJ/YY
    Shen/Mei vs MJ/WXL
    Bad draws, Bad luck, Mission (almost) impossible against the Great Walls :crying:
    ...
    WS:
    MKY vs PHY
    Go mbak jamu! :cool:
    Lets hope PHY's alergy towards Maria (Kristin, Febe) continues here :rolleyes:
    Btw, i'm a bit curious why ppl keep calling PHY as Lady Pi? :confused:
    ...
    MD:
    Rian/Yoke vs Fuzzy pair
    Battle among inconsistent pairs, let's see who's gonna be more "consistent" in this match
    I think they're quite even, the outcome will depends on which side who able to minimize their unforced-stupid-errors :rolleyes:
    But i guess being as lone MD survivor for INA camp will put Rian/Yoke under pressure :eek:
    ...
    XD:
    DeviL vs TL/KRJ
    Unconvincing performance from 2 previous matches, so bye bye DeviL
    Hope they can springs some upset, though :cool:
    NW/LN vs KKK/NHL
    A tricky match, but it should be no problem for the defending champion
    Well, at least until proven otherwise :rolleyes:
    ...
    MS:
    TH vs HYH
    SS vs Tago
    SDK vs CA
    Well i hope all of them prevails and advance to QF
    But their opponents may surprise 'em, though
    Especially HYH :eek:
    Hehehe ,-D

    The chances are...

    ..for these 2 scenarios, the chances are:
    SLIM and NONE..:cool:
    ..indeed. If not mistaken, they last time they met was in the 2004 U.S. Open MD Final. In that match, Gunawan and Bach destroyed Boe & Mogensen. Time has passed and we'll see how much the Danes have improved..Should be a very good match!:cool:
    ..that moniker, i believe, was given by one of the BC members a while back...
    Maybe it was given by our Syaoran_Style (who is also from the lovely France):

    I think the one to watch is SS vs Tago. I think it's 50-50. Tago seems to be in perfect form, not only he beat Zwiebler, he dominated him.

    Interestingly, every shot Tago made reminds me of Taufik. And of course quite a few shots of SS also resemble that of Taufik. So it's a clash between two Taufik clones. :D:D

    Watch Tago play and you'll know what I mean. :rolleyes:

    Btw, since both Tago and SS lacks the power that Taufik has, I don't think either will be the next Taufik... :cool: But I think Tago (currently 20 if I remember correctly) has the potential to reach top 10 or even top 5 in a few years.

    ^^Kenichi..and Simon..^^

    ..have been mentioned in the same breadth with Taufik's name before, mostly because of their style (Kenichi) and ability (Simon). Don't really look too much into Tago's win over Zwiebler. But, it is really going to be a 50-50 battle.
