Didn't he win a bit in pool before graduating to snooker?

I don't care who wins tomorrow, just as long as all this very high quality snooker continues.

Great win, although probably not the most sought after final it does highlight the positives of the flat draws, despite some dislike towards them.

I've never really been able to warm to Gary Wilson to be honest so I am supporting Joe.

Are you having a laugh? Gary got a McDonald's brekkie at 85-93 Grainger Street. What's not to love?

In tennis you often use the word clutch and thats what Joes performance was here. Just potted all the pressure balls and made the important breaks when he had to. No doubt he played the match of his life here.
As for tomorrow both Gary and Joe will know that they might never get a better chance again to win a ranker. Both will clearly fancy it and there wont be any intimidation factor.

Was it that giant hairy millipede he nursed on the back of his head that put you off him? Same. Good match first, Joe win second for me.
