Is the fledgling partnership really going to work?

 in one word - no. 

I havent seen them play, but Joe was on the decline last year and there was a reason Ram split from him; I think his back injury has impacted him and he feels on the long road down. Wouldnt surprise me if they split a few months in and wouldnt surprise me to see Joe retire - sad though it would be.

I could of course be terribly wrong!

Well done, Cam! Let's hope he's figured out what was troubling him last year.

Would be interested if anyone on these boards has watched them play. I know Joe has had potentially career ending injuries and wonder whether these have impacted on this pairing or whether they are struggling to combine. They had previously played Davis Cup with mixed results, and I understood they weren't a natural pairing.

 I was told that Joe and Ram were going to split up a year earlier, but they were so successful, they carried on for another season.

Jamie & John had to stave off a number of match points on the second set tie-break, but were never behind in the MTB.

Jamie, Lloyd and Julian all around the top 20; with the right results we could have 5 in top 20 soon. That would be promising as the season progresses.
