I wouldn’t mind if it weren’t for the held-over qualifiers. Makes Revolving Cues deadlines a ballache.

Oh yeah I’m sure he doesn’t believe it as much as he makes out. But as a younger fan when you’ve had 10 years of the guy constantly putting down his safety game and safety in general, it’s no surprise if you start to believe what he’s saying.

Yea hes going a long way to lay down his own success young people actually think safety is better these days just look how hard judd had to get through qualifiers he was found wanting against hardened match players you can multiply that by 5 the players hendry had to overcome. Not Strong potters, not Strong Break builders, but masters at stopping others playing their natural game.

I wouldnt see any problem giving Ng , Mink , Evans and Kenna all tour cards for the next ten years just to get them fully experienced on the circuit , you can see the development with Ng now , its not that much of a hike they just need more experience , Fraser Patrick has been in and around the circuit since 2007 , you've got to get burnt to progress.

Ken misses the red to middle but doesn't leave anything on. Ng is 32 points ahead with 43 remaining.

Doherty with a huge red to stay in with a chance. He’ll need the remaining colours. Yellow down…
