Guest MattP Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 What a dreadful standard. Winnet of this should be 10/1 to win the final.
Guest shearfox Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 What a dreadful standard. Winnet of this should be 10/1 to win the final. Ronnie and Judd is pretty much the final, can't see either player troubling those two on this form.
Manwell Pablo Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 Won't do them in future then. Not everyone is able to watch due to work and stuff as The Only Way is Essex wannabe said. don't let me stop you, I was just curious.
leicsmac Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 Ronnie 6-5 up, very little between him and Judd right now. Potential classic in the making.
foxfanazer Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 Is Stephen Hendry the most boring person ever? Cracking semi final this! Can't believe Ronnie hasn't been behind once in the whole tournament!
kingfox Posted 3 May 2013 Author Posted 3 May 2013 Judd really needs one more frame at least if he is to be behind after this session. 9-7 will be alright, 8-8 brilliant or if he ends up leading after a morning session I must say, then that will be flaming spectacular.

SystonFox Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 this is a classic sparring match. absolute quality snooker
foxfanazer Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 this is a classic sparring match. absolute quality snooker Great to watch. Bit of a shame it's not the final really
leicsmac Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 Great to watch. Bit of a shame it's not the final really To all intents and purposes it is the final really. Can't see either of the other semfinalists beating one of these two in the final. Won't be horribly one-sided but predict something like 18-12 in the final regardless of players. Hope not, the guy is a dick I dunno, I quite like Judd. And it's not like Ronnie isn't a dick himself too. Personalities aside, they're two great players.
ScouseFox Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 This is a sensational hangover cure. Keep up them session reports too KingFox, I like a read of 'em on my break at work if I'm missing the games.
kingfox Posted 3 May 2013 Author Posted 3 May 2013 So can Ronnie what? Ronnie can be a dick, Judd just can be too cocky at times. I would prefer Judd to win this anyway, I don't like to see the same players win everything all the time, like Man Utd in Football, Woods in his prime in Golf, Federer in Tennis, can't stand seeing the same players or teams winning. If he doesn't win this year, Judd will get his time.

Personalities aside, they're two great players. Yeah I agree, I have Sunday off work though so this would've been a great watch with a few beers an a Sunday roast I love Ronnie! Just hate how Judd always shakes his head and looks so hard done to when someone has a bit of luck. His interview after the Murphy match came across as very arrogant to me. As you say they he's a very good player

Bert Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 Is Stephen Hendry the most boring person ever? Cracking semi final this! Can't believe Ronnie hasn't been behind once in the whole tournament! Maybe, but also the greatest player to ever play the game. Very insightful to listen to.
foxfanazer Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 I don't care how good they are, I've always preferred different winners, always felt that way about Sport tbh. all about entertainment for me and seeing the best play the best. So would you be happier with a Hawkins v Walden final than a O'sullivan v Higgins final? Or Federer V Nadal or Tsonga v Karlovic Not saying you're wrong by the way, just difference of opinion. It's good that sort means different things to people

kingfox Posted 3 May 2013 Author Posted 3 May 2013 Terry Griffiths is the Worst commentator, some of the things he says sound so stupid. all about entertainment for me and seeing the best play the best. So would you be happier with a Hawkins v Walden final than a O'sullivan v Higgins final? Or Federer V Nadal or Tsonga v Karlovic Not saying you're wrong by the way, just difference of opinion. It's good that sort means different things to people Wouldn't want to see an O'Sullivan v Higgins final, a final between Hawkins v Walden will probably never happen but of course for quality, it won't be as good, but I like Hawkins. Would prefer Federer v Nadal, as Federer isn't in his prime anymore. People have different insights on Sport, I've always been the type who likes to see different winners, not the same one's.

It's good that sort means different things to people As a tennis fan, give me Tsonga v Gasquet or something similar over Nadal v Djokovic any damn day of the week. So much better tennis in terms of actual courtcraft. Besides, Fed v Nadal is so 2009. Murray v Djokovic is where it's at now. I do like seeing the best test themselves against each other but it does get a little bit boring after a while. Ronnie beginning to pull away here. If he finishes the session 10-6 up Judd is going to find it very hard to come back.

Obviously meant Federer in his prime. Can see nothing other than 10-6 at the moment to be honest. Ronnie just scoring too heavily

Judd needs to play more proactively here, and quickly.
kingfox Posted 3 May 2013 Author Posted 3 May 2013 Judd needs this frame, or he will be fooked. Can't see him winning from 10-6 down.
