A good match in prospect too, hard to call, though I favour Murphy after his win against Ding and his new approach to the game, plus his head to head record favours him.

And all five of his main tournament victories have been in the majors (including the IC).

Yep,very hard to predict the winner of this one,mind you we could ask Snookerfan,he,s brilliant at predictions.
I,d like Shaun to win though.

Both matches today are going to be absolute snooze-fests.
I look at the 16 players in this tournament and seriously, where is the fun?

Doesn't look a bad-line up to me. I'd have preferred Ding to Smurph, but other than that this is the Thursday I hoped for.

Right, snooker time. Hopefully this'll be a cracker
Don't really mind who wins, as I like both of them, but maybe Smurph just for predicts.

Don't agree with Ken that Ronnie was the best player so far.
For me, of the quarter-finalists Fu was probably the most impressive.

Was Mags for me, since Hawkins was knocked out (and bottled a 5-2 lead).

To be honest no player was truly impressive so far. Hawkins and Maguire played very well before the mid session interval but apart from the overall standard was quite poor so far.

Surely you'd want Robbo's bunny, Shaun, to progress?

I don't like it when players come back to the table for potting practice with no intention of winning the frame

Why? The winner of this match isn't even in Robbo's half.

Easier for Robbo to win if the winner of this got to the final?

Smurph playing like he has all season and Marco's not letting him get away with it.
3-0.

Better from Shaun. 3-1 now.
Needs to improve to stand a chance of winning.

How many interviews has Hazel done with each player? This one is different than the one they showed during the MSI of Ding's match.
