I'm not too fond of Mark Allen either, but then again, Robertson ain't much better. From the exciting aggressive long potter that emerged onto the scene with that brilliant win in the G'Prix vs Cope in the final, to the negative rather slow player he is now. (and his outrageously boring WC final with Dott) Can't they both lose?

I have to defend Allen here. On the table he has always been a fair sportsman.

Complete and utter lack of killer instinct, just can't keep an opponent down when he's got him on the ropes. 3-0 with the way Robbo was playing is massive compared to 2-1.

I know but Neil was struggling and Allen needed that frame more imo.

Good match.

You can be sure of that.

I will get hate for saying this, but Ronnie is bigger than the sport. He's the only superstar in snooker right now. The other players need to step it up, or new players have to come, cause the only one really worth watching these days is Ronnie. i hope players like Ding and Luca will improve and show us something special in the future..

I'd like to think Ding could have a period of dominance as an older and wiser sage Chinese player, buoyed by the emergence of younger Chinese talents threatening to take his throne, churning out 2-3 World Championships. I'm not sure he's got the stuff though - probably not. Brecel? I'm not entirely sold on the proficiency of his technique, but even more his tactical and mental ability. He is still extremely young and barely a man, however. Still.. something isn't quite resonating for me.
