I just dont get why its a bad thing?
Atleast they have character
These younger players are learning their apprenticeships, they have time on their side, things will change slowly, already seeing it with the likes of Williams and Higgins being over taken by trumps, lisowskis and dings.

When was Higgins overtaken by Lisowski, Ding or Trump? He's been losing to people like Milkins and Mavis recently.

Thing I like about the older players is the fact they all have different styles of play, different cue actions, timing, shot selection, clever shot making, different break building techniques and so on.
The younger players seem to be all very samey with coached cue actions and breakbuilding techniques with little personality. Maybe thats because theyre not used to be on the cameras yet and so on.

Oh, that's one thing I have to agree with. So many players feel so similar in their styles of play. There are some matches where I wouldn't be able to tell who was at the table if weren't for the score graphic.

Anyone have any idea what's happened to Dave Harold ? It would appear he hasn't played in the first two qualifying events of the season yet I can't seem to find any news on him withdrawing from them or retiring from the game completely.

Luca is far too casual in his approach there no intensity there almost going through the motions at times.
Matthew Day wins 3 frames on the spin to lead Luca Brecel 3-2

Maybe was too young last time, still young now as he got on by being Asian Under 21 Champion (where he edged Mohammad Majid Ali of Pakistan in the final). Certainly off to a good start now, don't think Jamie Jones will have it all his own way tomorrow.

I agree.
We need less of these Hendry-esque robots, with their cloned playing styles.

Wild's posts suggests he is on some form of medication. He will probably issue me with another gay threat for mentioning this.

Probably the highest standard match of the day was Paul Davison v Peter Lines
Paul Davison made breaks of 99, 95, 66 and 56 and in the one frame he won Peter Lines made a 93
Another exultant match was Aditya Mehta v Robbie Williams it was nip and tuck all the way with great snooker played it was 2-2 at the interval with Robbie Williams making 2 breaks of 69 then after the interval Robbie went 3-2 up with a break of 54 before Adi hit back with runs of 64 and 73 to lead 4-3 before Robbie Williams closed out the final 2 frames to win 5-4 limiting Adi to 18 points.

Michael White was on a 147 he finished too straight on the final pink so he couldnt get good on the black he tried to cut it from the middle pocket area but it was to hard and missed it.
