Has to be careful. Bingo might not let Robbo off the hook as much as Milkin has done. (Mavis might).
he went from average form to great form from round 1 and 2 no reason same wont happen tomorrow

Alternatively, he went from great to average in a day. No reason he won't be the same or worse tomorrow.

I only watched the last couple of frames. Robbo didn't produce the great stuff of yesterday but he played some great safeties at the end there. Solid performance.
I like Robbos attitude that not only he always wants to win in one visit, but he also always wants to clear the table. He wants to produce centuries and big breaks all the time. An attitude, that Hendry and O'Sullivan always had/have.

I only saw his match against Higginson, so can't really comment on the others. Though, the bottom line is he's in the semi-finals.
Two countries apart, and he's still the man to beat.

Wuxi and Australia need an asterisk by them, as the two best players Selby and Ronnie haven't entered them.

Mark Davis in a ranking semi-final is as easy as it's going to get.

Fair enough.
Wuxi should have a single asterisk then, while Australia should be double asterisked.

Selby reminds me of another World Champion who used to skip events.

A lot of people mistake them for each other. I think it's something to do with their similar styles of play.
