As long as Cahill beat the 'Snooker Prima Donna' he can behave as he likes.
Snooker fans have had 2 decades of Ronnie O'Sulkivan dictating everything so well done to anyone who beats him. Mr James Cahill you are a hero to many.
Fanboys can please themselves.
Cahill > O'Sulkivan

MJW had his fairytale moment the last year. Thats all he could have asked for and I'm happy he won that third world title after 15 years of not winning any major.
He said it himself. Even if he doesnt win anything after that he won't care. (He obviously will but it aint gonna hurt that much).

Worried this would happen but Ding can't prepare for just one tournament.

I know you like Kyren, I do too.
I even predicted to win, so we shall see... I wouldn't actually mind if Hawkins won the world title though.

He was very arrogant after his first match. Even said things like he was made for the Crucible and stuff like that. I thought relax dude. You've achievend nothing in the game so far and whenever you beat Ding,Selby and now Ronnie you immediately lost in the first match.
He seems thoroughly unlikable. Another clown who thinks he's made it just because he happened to catch Ronnie O'Sullivan on a bad day.

No disrespect to either, but you'd expct at least one of them were a top player. The fact they arent shows MJW doesn't cope well defeding the title here.
Come on. MJW is 44 years of age now. It’s difficult enough to win one at that range of age, let alone 2 a row. He’s never going to win it again this year. It’s nothing to do with not coping well as defending champ
But he could have lost to a top player no? Anyway, he was never going to win it again thats for sure.
He could only lose who is in front of him, doesn’t matter if said player is classed as a top player or not.
I am just glad MJW said he will play next season. As long as he continues to play, he has a chance of winning more titles

Don't lower yourselves to this level lads.
He beat your man - but that was his job.
What single thing has he done to deserve scorn?

I said yesterday he has had his David Gray moment in the 1st round. But I take that back. Because Gray actually beat a peak Ronnie O'Sullivan back then who did make 5 centuries.
Cahill only beat the shadow of Ronnie O'Sullivan. All that hype around him aint gonna change the reality. He played against two players who did strongly underperform against him. And yet he couldnt beat Maguire.

I think comparing Cahill to David Gray is actually doing Gray a massive disservice here. Let's not forget Gray is a ranking event winner, UK finalist and has many match wins at the Crucible under his belt.

Come on lads give young Cahill a break. He beat the greatest player ever in the most prestigious event ever. He is a part of snookers history now forever. If he never won another match imagine that on your C.V?

Ronnie and Mags were very beatable. Shouldn't believe his own hype he's only beaten players when they're out of form,
