Seriously, give me Neil Foulds and Hendry in the commentary box any day.
I've had mainly Eurosport on, but the ITV4 lot do give the BBC mob a showing up.

Ronnie just played a ridiculous shot with the rest on that blue, amazing. Maybe he will get inspired soon...

I've only seen a couple of people whine about Robbo, in general his support is good but don't let reality affect your opinion.
Shame we've got so many snooker "fans" with the attention span of gnats.
24 sec shot time....oh the horror

Genius century break from Ronnie. Lost position a few times but found a way to pot them all!

Solid, quick fire stuff from Ronnie. IMO if ROS pulls level or at least within a frame he wins.

I think Stuart should win. Just keep playing as he's done and he'll win. If Ronnie doesn't miss any more balls he can win but he is missing a few in between periods of genius break making.

Ronnie looks rougher than a badgers bottom, did he go on the p**s a day too early?

Stuart has started to slump at the same time Ronnie has woken up.

Might be a little premature in saying this, but I think Bingham has missed the boat.

4-3, pot success gone up to 93%
But this next frame could prove decisive, 5-3 to Bingo and Ronnie may not comeback like he did against Ding at the CoC.

Hmm, spoke too soon, looking like 5-3 to Bingo, I guess he may actually be sending Ronnie home, but we'll see how he handles the final frame.

He was lucky that he didn't left anything after missing that red with the rest but overall he's really helding himself together , yeah.

Ronnie needs the next 3, I'm afraid but that's certainly not beyond Ronnie's capability.

I think Bingham has to win the next, I think Ronnie would take a possible decider.
