You can still be critical of the player ahead...


He's been on Ding's case the entire night, slamming everything he does, saying his lead is due to good run of ball. Even when he pots balls, he's smacking him and saying he doesn't look confident.

Complete and utter toss. He's got more praise for Judd being behind that he does for Ding being ahead.

Ebdon?



Ebdon got it cleaned after every shot in that famous 5 minute 12 break :hatoff:

Good.

The man is a cockwomble and he's turning Ebdon into one, though to be fair Ebdon's personality does help this acceleration.

If only Ebdon was learning his trade from the great Clive Everton. I feel like he has the potential to be a very good commentator if he doesn't pick up bad habits.

He did get as easy a quallies draw as possible and had a week between last quallies match and his opener here ;-)

Can't see it myself. No matter how easy/hard a draw you think he's had, he's still gotta go beyond what everyone else ever has. He looks tired now and the real work hasn't really started.

Hawkins (if he beats ROS) or Fu might have a word to say about that. But I agree about Higgins. He has the absolutely perfect draw.

I think if ding was in better physical shape it wouldn't be an issue but I doubt hes a gym goer like Ronnie and others.

No fluke at all. Holty taught Robbo a snooker lesson. He now owns Robbo, as does Milky.

Ding beat him here last year, and he was playing worse in general.
