Monday 1st ~Friday 5th of June at the K2 Leisure Centre in Crawley

The Australia Goldfields Open is in its 5th year and in its first year back in 2011 this is where it all started for our current World Champion Stuart Bingham when he came back from 8-5 down to beat Mark Williams 9-8 in the final.

This year for the first time The World Champion will be playing in the event in Bendigo.

But before then we got 112 players in Crawley trying to join the top 16 seeds at the venue.

Round 1 sees a mixture of experience campaigners like Nigel Bond and Jimmy White take on debutant on the main tour the likes of Gareth Allen, Duane Jones and Eden Sharav as well as players that just failed to get a 2 year tour card Zhao Xintong and Adam Duffy.

Then in round 2 Jack Lisowski, Anthony Hamilton, Andrew Higginson, Sam Baird, Robbie Williams, Zhang Anda, Craig Steadman, Ken Doherty, Oliver Lines, Peter Lines, Kyren Wilson, Aditya Mehta among others take to the table to go through to round 3 to play against each other to get through to the next round.

Awaiting them in round 4 will be the likes of Rod Lawler, Gary Wison, Martin Gould, Luca Brecel, Ali Carter and former World Champion Peter Ebdon.

Who will book their ticket to Bendigo to play defending champion Judd Trump and World Champion Stuart Bingham?

GJ must be over the moon currently as his beloved Ana Ivanovic is playing so well currently rofl But it was some match yesterday.

On the other thread, Forza was calling people to wake up for this new season. That´s a good call and a post. As I would and always will encourage people to write anything they want to anytime they want to. That´s at least what I will always do. There are always going to be SOME people regardless their nationalities who are trying to promote and operate some changes. Day in, day out. For the sake of that people would mentally found their real boots, mentality and a spirit.

For the record im a moderator not a admin and i will mod fairly at all times but the job of building the forum up is that of a Admin and unfortunately Roland has been busy during the last few weeks since the World Championship, he only had a small passing interest in Q School this year and anyone who knows Roland knows how interested in Q School he really is.

its just one of those things that happens its not the end of the World ive created this thread for the qualifiers if you have something to say about the Aussie Open do it here and when the forum will be set up in due course i will move this in to that section.

w00t! New season! Yaaaaaaay!!

I loved watching the Aussie Open last year, Trumpy knocking down Robbo in the final. I like the commentators - Robbie Foldvari is one of them can't remember the others.

Peeps on Twitter saying Jimmy must be snake hissed to be playting this bad.

Very very bad from Jimmy White. He can not have read my thread about waking up for the new season. Better luck next time with the tea and scones!

Nasir was really bad too. An unacceptable performance from the peoplepleaser Jimmy White!
