Don't think he's alright mentally after that loss. It was arguably the worst defeat of his career. Yet.

Not a fan of his but genuinely felt sorry for him. Embarrassing performance and got dragged of for slow play when he's meant to be the new exciting player.

New is pushing it. He's been a top player for six years now.

I think Robbo was playing better the year before but would have had a big chance with those left in that year.

I can see this being one of those matches where Maguire can get within 1frame/level with Hawkins but can't quite get his nose in front, then ends up losing 13-11/12. Although I'd like to see the lead change hands a few times.

FFS Barry why were you not like this in 2015

You know what I mean he's meant to fill that gap when Ronnie finally stops.

I genuinely think Barry hasn't the form this time

Yes but his draw in 2014 was a stinker, maybe even the toughest ever

Some bizarre shots being played

I know many of you wont understand this but just watched a replay of his 146 and not for the first time in the last twenty odd years I shed a tear, when ai see him play like I know that I will never see the like of him again, a one off, a maverick and yes at times frustrating and bloody annoying. But he is who he is because of what he is and how he does it. Effortless, grace, timing and sheer sheer natural talent. For me personally I will be devastaed when he says enough is enough.


The word genius is used too much too often, but for this guy it barely does him justice

Good Evening

Hi there, don't you worry, Ronnie won't go anywhere anytime soon. Snooker is part of his DNA. He will be able to knock in a ton like that even in his 60s with the talent he has. Not consistently anymore of course but once in a while he'll catch a hot streak and the old magic will be back. And until then Ronnie still has some good years in him where he can compete for all the titles.

He will. Goes 15th.

Good start Maguire

9-9.

The form Maguire showed in winning the uk champs 13 years ago , would that form have won him a WSC ?

Flukes!

Mags hasn't been ahead in this match has he?

Disgraceful fluke but that's what he needed

He was 1-0 up.

We might see beast mode Barry in one of the bo7 tournaments next season but atm all I see is rubbish mode Barry.

I always wonder how there can so many betting sites and services

And it's the only kind of sponsor snooker attracts

Well, it didn't at the time did it?

Didn't he beat David Gray in that final. Where he?!?

Aye but the next WSC he played Ronnie in round 1 and a missed black cost him the win

The snooker gods have big plans for Barry judging on that fluke
