Ok I may of made a mistake I think he's 6.4 I'm sure I heard that he was 6.9 on sky sports news! When they announced him as murreys next opponent, anyhow there is a 6.10 professional ATP tour croation I ain't got a clue what he's name is.

Isner = 6'9". But that makes 2 guys out of the top 200? I'm sure more than 1% of the ITST MS field are playing as a giant.

when you forward find a player with 151 kg ,than i´m in a line with your thoughts !!

you can´t compare 1 real large monster (looser) player with the fat 6.9 high TS3 player .
that is 1 player from 10000 with that size .and he is also not a topplayer

The only reason some people made a big deal out of the '6'9 player ban' is simply because being that tall gives you an advantage in TS3. If it didn't, nobody would have cared that they banned that type of player. So I think the fact that we're still hearing arguments for the reinstating of giant 6'9 characters just proves that they're unfair to use, and just further validates the decision to ban them. So, thanks.

Um not really matey, as in real tennis it also has advantages as the comintaters always say, so what is your definition of real then if in REAL life they have a Couple of players 6.9 and in Real life they also have an advantage. Therefore your argument isn't about real it's about preference. Thanks. Anyhow I really don't care anymore I've gone double bkh and shorter is better for that. I only posted this as murry had to play 6.9er and I felt like having a friendly dig. I'm really not protesting to get them back!

6'9 do have advantages in real life and in the game, but in the game they have none of the weaknesses of real life :wink:

Same speed and same groundstrokes

Myabe we could introduce a rule saying you can have a 6'9'' player, yet you need to have 30 speed and stamina.
