One man highlight reel. Superb.

Ronnie is going to walk this match. Heck, even if he didn't turn up for the match he'd still win it.

We might find out today

OMG! It's actually going to happen.

Skullman wrote:Ronnie in for a chance to take the match.

He's played well but has been under virtually no pressure since the safety exchange in frame one.

its been as poor a match as ive seen Ronnie hardly played fantastic stuff

Ronnie through 4-0.

Should be a good match between Ding and ROS but I doubt it'll top Robbo v Carter. I doubt he'll do as well against a player who can actually score a double figures break.

Absolute top notch from Mavis!.

Friday 22nd of November

Group 1

NB 2.30pm

Ronnie O'Sullivan 4-0 Mark Davis H2H O'Sullivan leads 3-1

7pm

Ronnie O'Sullivan v Ding Junhui H2H O'Sullivan leads 7-3

As mentioned by Ronnie a few months ago, he seems to be bucking the trend and playing just as good as he's ever played as he's getting older. History suggests the opposite is true so it looks like the Rocket is reinventing snooker history!

Did I hear correctly last night that robbos potting and break building stats were up there and bettering hendrys in his pomp? What titles has that level of performance earned him in this era?

Ronnie now talking

bullocks ALERT

Unbiased moderation. Classy.

I'm sure you're completely unbiased about Robbo.

always listen to me and you will go far

As much as im a big fan of Ding and welcome his recent dominance I cant help but think Ronnie will expose him (and the rest of snooker) tonight and easily dispose of Ding and send a message that the rest can win events when hes not around but they are essentially hollow victories.

One of Ding's victories was when Ronnie entered.

Take your tongue out of ROSs ass for God's sake, you should be making such a fanboy comment

You seem to be implying ROS wins everything he enters and that's clearly not the case.

no ive not been watching much snooker this season

my snooker season viewing started today

you know what I mean tho, until Ding or one of the so called big guns bashes Ronnie up in a big tournament, its hard not to still class him as the man to beat.

Certainly ROS is the man to beat, his current ranking is clearly no indication of his current form, just a reflection of how few events he's playing in.

Definition of bashing someone up? Pretty subjective really, one could say Selby bashed him up coming from behind to win their last match.

Ronnie will stay the man to beat as long as he's maintaining any form and has his head somewhat screwed on

Hard to say any one player's the man to beat. At the moment Ding and Robbo are playing a level above everyone else. ROS and Selby just behind, but it's hard to say those two are also men to beat when they haven't done much in the bigger events this season.

So Ronnie won comfortably against Davis. Not a huge surprise really.

just talked sense in a interview situation doesn't happen often

Ronnie vs Ding

What a match we have on our hands tonight. Let's see if Ding still has that mental blockage against Ronnie.

Right, snooker about to start.

I'd like Ding to win but wouldn't mind if Ronnie came through so Robbo can smash him tomorrow.
