Barry is not in Beast Mode. He's just playing well.
Let's save the Beast Mode mentions for when it's actually the case.
Yeah true. And I actually expect him to play rubbish in the final (should he beat Williams and get to the final).

Higgins laughed last.
Real snooker fans weren't laughing, heroes like me.
Listen to all those hipsters in the crowd first booing the heckler and then applauding like a bunch of pompous idiots as he's being removed. Williams' reaction is brilliant though.
This infuriates me, that whole saga has been brushed under the carpet and people are willing do defend or turn a blind eye to the whole thing, I cannot stomach watching this parakeet

The baseline game just didn't suit him at all. He needed to come to the net more.

Sports 'fans' will 'defend' their sport against those pesky people speaking the truth in sport's best interests. See Mo Farah, Armstrong, Team Sky, etc.

Wilson says he didnt recover from the sitter of a red he missed at 4-3, and from there he was like Tom and Jerry, playing catch up.
I've been saying throughout that 8th frame was the crucial one and Higgins managed to keep him at arms length ever since.

He wouldn't beat Hawkins in a final. Assuming Barry continues his current form.
He'll probably fold like a cheap tent and let Higgins win it though.

I don't particularly enjoy either Higgins or Hawkins amd would rather get some vitamin D than watch a Higgins procession.
IMO Hawkins has more chance of beating Higgo than Willo due to the way he plays the game
Hawkins is scared of Higgins. Williams isn't.
U must be confusing Hawkins with Ronnie and Trump

Hawkins is in awe of Higgins. You could already feel and see that in his pre match interviews before his semifinal against Higgins last year.
Thats why I think Williams has a better chance.

He needs to dry his eyes quickly. There's still a final to play.

An emotional John pays tribute to his conquered opponent.
You're a real man John. Very honest.

Williams usually rolls over and has his belly tickled by Ronnie and Higgins
Come on Hawk
