Title: Ronnie O'Sullivan (Eng) v Neil Robertson (Aus)
Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, September 26, 2010, 18:29:59
Not sure I'll get the telly time to watch it, but could be a cracker.

I've quite enjoyed this short match tournament, means you can tune in and not only get half a session in the middle of a match. Big matches do still have their place, I wouldn't want them fucking about with the UK or World Championships.

Pretty sure they won't be messing with the big matches.  Think this short game tournament is an additional one, as the players want to earn more money.

Will be a good match, Ronnie confuses me as after a win he says how crap he is playing, is it a total disrespect to the player he just beat?!

How long is the final in terms of frames? This should be a good one. Two flare players. Didn't Robertson used to do a "pool break" and split the reds straight away instead of the tactical bollocks you see all the time? I know someone used to, pretty sure it was him.

Watching this on and off, rather good actually. Robertson's long potting is ace, Barry Hearn needs to make him a star if he's trying to turn Snooker around.

Quentin Hann used to do that break, and wear no shoes. He was a dirty Aussie who got done for match fixing.

Haha you are right. I knew it was a dodgy Aussie anyhow.
