2016 AO SF: Murray-Raonic

[britbox]

Andy won the toss and has elected to serve,I must make mention regarding Lleyton Hewitt who has been a commentator for Channel 7,Hewitt gives insightful remarks about the players,hopefully Channel 7 will rehire Hewitt next year at the AO.

Yeah I like Hewitt in the box, particularly as he know all the nuances of the top players. A great addition to Channel 7.

I've gone for Raonic and also think Milos could potentially give Novak more to think about in the final if he gets through.

 

[britbox]

Bit of baldness beginning to show on Muzza... must have been worrying about this first service game.

 

[mikecase]

Terrible start. Wake up Andy.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Loves Milos fhand in the opening service game

 

[mikecase]

3 breaks points back. Thank you Mr Raonic

 

[britbox]

Good hold for Milos.

 

[Moxie]

Milos wins the battle of the early nerves.

 

[mikecase]

On the board.

 

[mikecase]

Got to be off for work. Wish they'd schedule these matches with fans of both players in mind. GO MURRAY!

 

[Moxie]

I really do think Milos is a different player to what he has been. Andy has his work cut out for him in this set, being down the early break against a big server. He'd better take care.

Yeah, seems like they are feeling themselves out a bit with Milos looking a little more comfortable.

The Moya effect?

 

[Moxie]

The Moya effect?

I think it's too early for that. Raonic has been improving and gaining confidence for some time, now.

 

[Moxie]

Brilliant pass from Murray. He's going to need that today, I think.

 

[britbox]

Easy hold. Murray's going to have his work cut out getting into Milos' service games... Opportunities will be rare methinks.

 

[Moxie]

The Moya effect?

Question to you: what do you think the Moya effect is meant to be?

 

[britbox]

A calming influence in the camp. Milos has struggled with nerves a lot in the past.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Milos body serve against Murray is working a treat so far in this match

 

[Moxie]

A calming influence in the camp. Milos has struggled with nerves a lot in the past.

And a champion's POV?
