Got on Frank Schiavionie at $4.80 Head to head...crazy odds. So all smiles here this morning despite the loss.

i too found the $4.80 irresistable, though i got greedy and took it in a two leg multi with west coast 1-39.

there's been some wacky odds appearing on sportsbet of late. QLD @ $1.55 to win origin 1 at opening time, out to $2.10 with 15 mins to go. gobbled that up good and proper!

Falla was so close, serving for the set. I new Federer would win after he won the 4th

I missed the Aussie tennis season this year for the first time in my life but I was in South America and Antarctica so that was a good consolation :)

Pat Rafter took over as the Captain of the Davis Cup this year. Tony Roach will assist Pat as the coach.

For the fourth year in a row, Australia will start its 2011 Davis Cup campaign in the Asia/Oceania playoffs. After receiving a first round bye, Australia will play the winner of Chinese Taipei and China in the second round. Australia's glory days of Davis Cup are a distant memory atm but hopefully Pat and Tony can get us back into the world group to start with.
