player. Each year the British media carries on how this time he is going to win Wimbledon for Britain but he never even makes it to the quarter finals.
Pat Rafter an Aussie made it to the Wimbleton finals and was ranked world
number 1 at one stage.

Tell you one thing. If there was a world-championship for 'trolling', for spouting bile and hatred, for sending out nothing but bad-vibes on an on-going and infinite basis and for making the country-you-profess-to-love look like a hotbed of goose-stepping morons with too much time and too-few brain cells, then Wombat - you'd be the number one seed.
What a cock.
What a cock.

You can trace your ancestery back many generations, Amazing, good for you
do you think it makes you some sort of Aussie royalty or something.
My parents were married . The reason it is so easy to trace your ansestors back so many generations is because they were all inbred
Of course your parents both knew each other because they were both brother and sister , which makes you some sort of mutant.

Getting back to Hewitt, his on and off court antics could never be compared to big bad John Mcenroe.. He may not be the best but he is bloody good.
