Not dissimilar in tone, except one talks sense about snooker and the other one creates irrelevant noise.

I see what people mean about Hamilton not having the voice for this.

What was?
Selby’s long game. It’s in good fettle, according to the stats.

If you hear him say “that’s the point” it’s Hendon.
If you hear him talking at length about something irrelevant to the match, it’s Studd.

Maybe that's why I never notice how rubbish Phil Studd is.
I always think it's Hendon.

I feel bad. My dad is fixing my washing machine. I'm sat here having my third can of lager.
(He had nipped home for an hour when I had my first two.)

Back since 2011 I can't remember a World Championship where all the top players performed like we have seen this year. This could go down as one of the all time great tournaments if the standard carries on.

I didn't think many of the qualifiers would go through this year.
Predicted three, I think.

I definitely expect McGill to challenge Ronnie. McGill always seems to play decent at the Crucible and as I said the last time, he plays the table, never the opponent. If Ronnie is not on his game like he wasnt in the 1st session against Joyce, McGill will punish him.

Definitely a chance, but Ron would surely have to bungke two of the three sessions.
