dunno mate i really think his desire and motivation is long gone

Anywhere else and I wouldn't fancy Stevens' chances of a big run much but he seems to be one of those players who gets inspired at the big stage. I don't think he's a million miles from being an outside contender personally.

but mate he made life very easy for ding last week it was like a cat playing with a mouse before getting hold of it and kill it.



i agree but chumba has a point if he did qualify for crucible and its a BIG IF he does tend to get on a roll there :)

i thought that when he qualified in 08 (he hasn't been there since) and i expected him to give Higgins a fright but it was very lame to be honest.

That's it though, I don't expect him to be contending at these minor events, he's different from the norm.
