Dubman Ronnie’s completely lost it. Smashing balls all over the place. Embarrassing

Selby was pretty salty with his post-match comments regarding this.

Glad O’Sullivan has progressed though. No one needs to see another Selby borefest in a final.

    Echo watched it, ROS got lucky with a fluke in the last frame. He had the run of the balls when it mattered

    Really can’t see past a 6th title for Ronnie this weekend.

      Hursty should win but you never know. Wilson beat the tournament favourite an world no 1 Trump

        What an amazing final frame. So glad Ronnie did it, it’s worth it just for the post match interviews! He’s got to be on the wind up talking about cue action all the time, must have a bet on with a mate or something.

        what goes around comes around for Selby. Maybe concentrate on playing snooker instead of gamesmanship all the time.

        Amazing.

        Selby getting it all wrong in his post match interview as well, really let himself down.

        alistair Surely after that mental demolition in the deciding frame his confidence is shot. Will take a monumental turn around and I will be mightily impressed if he does. Quite like Kyren as a player so hope he does bring his best game to Ronnie.

          Hursty Kyran had his own mental slog too. Hope its a proper contest. Don’t see why not given he beat probably the best player in the world (Trump) en route

          Trump played so badly though.

          ROS is unlikely to be able to hold himself together for the duration of a final so KW is definitely in with a shout. All depends on how many sessions Ronnie throws away through frustration or disinterest imo.

            C_J Did you see Wilson in the last frame of the semi? Absolutely shot to shit. No way he is recovering from that overnight. Hopefully I’m wrong though.

            Heno Shelby was alright, he was gracious, he was just a bit fucked off at the disrespectful element and he mentioned it in passing - otherwise, he was just gutted to lose.

            • C_J replied to this.

              Just taught him giving out was bit much, he snookered the geezer and he got out it, in fairness it looked like he had ROS completely ground down, ROS done well to get out it

              Along_the_Wire he did more than mention it in passing. He rammed the point home by repeating it about four or five times.

              I have a degree of sympathy with him. Some of the stuff Ronnie did in that match showed a lack of respect for the game and the tournament….

              ….but then that’s him all over isn’t it? He’s an obnoxious cunt. He’s always undermining the sport, his opponents, and generally being subversive.

              On the other hand he’s the greatest, most exciting talent the game’s ever seen and without him Barry Hearn would not have had the same level of income, and we would have had to watch the likes of Selby grinding everyone into dust for the last twenty years.

                C_J The interview I saw, he mentioned it once - he seemed genuinely just gutted at the whole thing.

                C_J If a sport needs a cunt to make money, it’s probably not a sport worth watching.

                All sports are full of cunts at the top of their game. They are hugely hyped, paid and fans treat them like gods. Same in every sport really
