Yes our best ever,only weakness was his forehand topspin,hits the flatter type topspin drive fantastic buts lacks a genuine heavy topspin loop,very similar footwork to a former Australian player in Tommy Danielsson who also has backhand dominated footwork. Would have loved to see him after being coached to produce that extra dimension heavy topspin loop and footwork to match. Wow what a player, and a great ambassador for aussie table tennis.
