Yeah with the way it is going at the moment we could be here all night.

Jesus I don't think this frame is going to be over by 2am let alone the match.

In a way it is heartening to see them missing the sort of shots that I would be disappointed at missing!

Robertson missed a long pot cut off the 3rd-4th last red which hit half way along the cushion.

 

[Scaly piscine]

That's that then. The Aussie seemed like he wanted it more to me.

It's one thing playing quicker in the balls, but Dott was doing it on safety shots too. He didn't think things through properly. Leaving that plant at the end was typical of it. Played too many careless/reckless shots making it too easy for Robertson to get in. Neil on the other hand was more methodical and so didn't give as much away.

Congratulations Robertson, even if we do have to see that bloody flag.

Well done to him, deserved it.

And stops at cricket.

BBC Sport - Snooker - John Higgins cleared of bribery claims

Muppets swallow complete pile of steaming ****e.

Pretty much kills the sport for me.

Ding looked damn impressive today. He's got to be the most cardboard person at the table, but his game possibly has the most flair (bar O'Sullivan)

 

[Jarquis]

Good to see Judd Trump actually start delivering on all his potential and hype. First ranking win earlier this month and now a World Championship Semi.
Having a rough time of it atm though, missed a fair few pots.

 

[cover drive man]

Pretty much his first bad session of the tournament, he could well put it behind him but Ding's more than capable of a very convincing win at the rate of the morning session.

 

[Furball]

John Higgins is a ****.

 

[vic_orthdox]

I know he's a fixer, but I'm behind Higgins - Trump strikes me as a right knob.

 

[Jarquis]

Rather be a knob than a cheat. ****ing Higgins

 

[Jarquis]

The shot to hit the brown then by Trump justifies this bump

 

[GIMH]

I'd love steds to come back

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Ronnie back in the Final. At least he's still entertaining at the table even if he's become a boring prat off it.

Just found this thread.........love my snooker.

Really hoping to see a Robertson/O'sullivan final here, so go the Thunder from Down Under tonight (this morning UK time)

Anyone know of a legal internet stream to watch this in Oz?
