I see... I'd also like Ding's match to be televised, but since Mags is playing Pagget they'll probably put his match on TV.

Well I won't be too bothered if that happens, both can be good matches, and who knows... something tells me Pagget could be the Welsh player going furthest in this event.

All Welsh players have tough matches in fact and in theory they can all be knocked out tomorrow, what a blow that would be for the Welsh fans:

Pagget v Mags

Stevens v Perry

Dale v Selby

Robbo v Williams

Who do you think of these Welsh players has the better chance of winning their match?

Has to be Stevens and Pagett. I think Robbo has too much for MJW these days, Selby is generally too solid for players like Dom to beat him. Stevens and Perry are roughly equal, although Perry has to be favourite due to recent form of both players. Pagett might have a chance as Mags was been complaining of back problems.

I think all of them will get knocked out tomorrow, but if I had to pick a favourite I would go for Pagget, has been playing very well.

:-D Glad he is through, should be another cracker v Lisoswki, even though we won't be able to watch that.

TV Matches for tomorrow looks like this in my opinion

Dominic Dale v Mark Selby Welsh Conection
Neil Robertson v Mark Williams Obviously
Xiao Guodong v Ronnie O'Sullivan or Judd Trump v Anthony McGill (depending on Ronnie Winning or Losing)
Stephen Maguire v Andrew Pagett (defending champ v welshie)

Williams post-match:

“Neil is apart from Ronnie O’Sullivan the best player in the world, there are hardly any faults in his game. But I know if I play okay I can beat anyone apart from maybe Ronnie.”

Some confidence Williams has when facing Ronnie, I don't blame him though after all the losses since 2003 he's had against him. This though shouldn't be a mentality of a great of the game like Williams, but I understand his point when he faces him, the man has 0 confidence in beating him.

He has not entered for much pre worlds , Needs ro do well tbis week.

If Barry does the biz then I am surely going to be a little bit more amazed than you would be !!!!! Lol

He said he'll enter the PTC Grand Finals The Cueist because it now is held in Preston which obviously favours because he wouldn't be playing in Thailand anyway.

Apart from this event and that one you're right, he'll then prepare for his defense of the World Crown.

That shouldn't be a mentality of a Twice World Champ and a great of the game though, but what matters is that he hasn't won against Ronnie for more than 10 years and they've had loads of matches since then.

Well, if you exclude 2 CL wins from Williams that is. rofl pmsl

Conflicted. Should root for Pinches, sticking with my usual anti-Ronnie stance, but I picked Ronnie in predicts and if he goes far, it could be a goldmine of points :chin:

Good crowd in. Wonder how many'll leave once this match is done (assuming it's not the last where it'll be all of them just to pre-empt any smartarses).
