With Ronnie and even MJW its not that bad.


I don't think Mark Williams has aged very well either to be honest. Ronnie is the only one out of the class of 92 that looks good.

Thinking the same, they always stop for EFL, and don't have Eurosport :(

yeah you have a point. In fairness to Williams, he still maintained his quick Snookerbrain. He's still a very fluent player.

Higgins definitely slowed down in that department I have to say. Watched some of his matches in the early 00's and I was surprised how quick he was. You can clearly see he has aged in every department.

Will Donald still be involved in politics aged 100, I say yes

Well he does have superior genes, the best genes, the best genes anyone as have ever had, so definitely possible, maybe Big Macs and Coke aren't that bad for you after all?

I was attempting sarcasm. I assumed that you didn't have Eurosport.

Yeah, good stuff, was expecting it to be a bit boring, was thinking the same earlier before the Selby Robbo match...glad to be wrong on both counts.
