You didn't ask me, but Hawkins would without a doubt, Robbo played his A game against him at Worlds Quarter-Final this year, and still lost the match 13-12.

Allen on the other hand, and especially at the Masters, has played superbly well against Robbo, and still lost the match.

Hawkins for me has a much better chance.

Yeah, I would go along with that. Hawkins doesn't fear Robertson, that's for sure. Allen on the other hand, for whatever reason, just hasn't performed in big matches for a while now.

Hawkins has only won one match ever in the event this year. Its hard to see him take Robbo out and make the final. Surely Allen has to step up and make a triple crown final sooner rather than later. His record against Robbo is very poor at the mo though

that pattern is becoming very obvious

Why would Ronnie fans want Robbo to lose? I don't understand. I don't give a toss if Robbo or Judd wins..

I noticed that too. They've been much less thorough since the worlds ended. Maybe they're busy with their actual paying work, rather than the website where they write for free? I know Dave Hendon has started up snooker podcasts.

That site is on its last legs, IMO. Just as Snooker Island is.

<laugh> I've been posting here since 2010 and I would say that the forum is in very good shape. Not at it's peak, but still pretty good.

Interesting. Where I can find these podcasts without having to use Google?
