They both represent boringness. Even if they make three consecutive centuries. It makes me sleep.

Go to sleep then and STOP posting about it <ok>


I'm entitled to my opinion. And I like Snooker more than the I despise Wilson and Hawkins for their dullness. Thats why I'm still watching.


Ignore Wildey, he has no taste when it comes to Snooker.

Ill take this time to remind you that your still and for ever more on license just one slip up from you and that's it.


I forgot it was against the rules to disagree with you.

to start with you did not qualify it with IN MY OPINION some people like watching him play.


Why should anyone have to start a post with 'IN MY OPINION'? It's an online forum, of course it is their own opinion. Blimey your IQ is low.

I wonder if Ding will complete the comeback

Probably, Robbo is a notoriously bad front runner. Not that I want to see that though.

Agree on Hawkins. Even his interviews are boring.

“Err yeah I played OK to be fair but erm... yeah just pleased to get through to be fair, yeah.” :zzz:

Kyren can be interesting to watch because his cueball control’s so rubbish, so he has to pull out pots to keep breaks going.

Robbo's interviews are usually ok, Murphy's too although I always want to slap him round the face with a kipper

Ronnies interviews can be indeed boring. It was even more so in the past when he started his sentence with 'I'd like to conratulate X on another great season. He's had another great tournament...'

At least he got out of that habit.

Looks like it's all over for Ding. Well done Robbo.

What is wrong with this cameraman? He seems obsessed with focussing on the crowd, instead of the players.

Good, wanted Hawkins to win

Higgins has only won two ranking events in the past four years. It's very unlikely he'll win another one for the remainder of his career. I believe that Crucible final in May was his last hurrah.

Higgins is well past his prime. Its pretty obvious.

The fact he got to three World finals in a row was more determination and his opponents playing poorly (like Robertson or Gilbert this year) than anything else.

It's funny how even though Higgins and Ronnie are the same age, they couldn't be further apart. Ronnie is still playing to a very high level, and winning multiple tournaments a season, but turns to rubbish at the WC. Whereas Higgins struggles to perform throughout most of the season, but has been able to make it to three consecutive WC finals.

It is frustrating to see a rubbish Higgins still capable of performing at the WC, when Ronnie cannot.

Re: Shanghai Masters Last 16 !!!

Indeed. Its hard to explain. Its obvious at this stage of their respective careers Ronnie is the far superior player. In fact he's been the superior player since 2012. And yet Higgins does more damage at the Crucible in recent time.

Its just a mental thing more than anything else. If you have a mental block at the Crucible you will always fail.
