Selby 3-1 up, McGill could have easily been 2-2 had he won that first frame.
Studio analysis coming up, wonder what Ronnie will have to say.

I love Ronnie's TV work, but I'd rather he was practising....

Lol at this tip talk. Liking ROS as a pundit. Has opinions and is assertive with them.

Murray said at beggining he had been practicing and watching the match at same time. Plus they had frame key shots in the analysis and Ronnie spoke well, he said if you're feeling confident jet lag, or new tips or whatever don't come into the equation, and I agree with him.
Anyway, McGill needs win first frame after MSI otherwise Selby wins it confortably.

Ronnie is pretty good as a analyst.
He used to do it for Sky in the early 90s believe it or not it felt awkward back then but these days he feels comfortable in-front of camera.
Jimmy White on the other hand is pretty poor.

Jimmy's real value on the panel is ROS gets along well with him! Someone to have a laugh with when they have to sit through long scraps.

Thanks, that's reassuring :) I'll watch it later on the eurosport player.

Has he explained more on his theory that playing Power Snooker is better than playing at The Crucible?

At this stage of theirs careers, Selby is a much better player than Higgins.

I like McGill a lot in general... just the way he goes about his business.

Been busy with uni work but been keeping an eye on the match. Looks like Ants is playing much better now, could be a decider pretty soon. Hope Selby gets over the line though.

I know, right.
My colleague is on holiday, so haven't been able to shaft the work on him all day. Rest assured, he's back soon and I'll be back to chatting rubbish about snooker rather than doing anything useful.

Yes. Sounds superficial but the way they walk around the table, posture, how they carry themselves.. has a lot to do with how much I like a player!
Good stuff this from McGill.

He's shut up now. I reckon it was Hendryfan trying to convince someone who is the GOAT.
McGill has done a Selby on Selbs!

Another one visit frame from Ebdon and he wins 5-2 over Higgins.
Meanwhile, decider alert.

Higgins didnt pot a ball since winning frame 3, and Ebdon with another 60+ break won it 5-2
That's very impressive to say the least, hopefully he'll earn a meeting with Ants
