Tony Drago might not have been the most successful but he was really unique, there's still noone like him. He was also a top 16 player in the hardest era.

With Drago it wasnt the flash shots that done him in but the nothing shots he took for granted by rushing.


Ive always thought Drago did not play at his natural pace he played a tad too quick and it cost him.


Today i see a lot of players do that sort of thing.

Graeme Dott is the modern day Tony Drago.

Indeed!,good on him for doin that,coming back from 4-0 down against any player is a wonderful feat. <ok>




Hard luck to the young Scot,(18),Chris Totten,who just lost 5-4,against Un-Nooh,he was 4-3 up,but unfortunatly could,nt pull it off.


He has a wee consolation of registerin his first ever century break,in the 5th frame he knocked in exactly a *100* . :-)

Dott is a much better player than Drago, in my opinion

V. funny, but I always thought it was a bit harsh of McManus to not allow play to continue.


Maybe so.

But I don't really have any sympathy with Drago. He conceded, can't then change his mind. His own fault.
