Tom Rogic Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 . Ronnie Hibsing in off the red To be fair he was still up against it, the others were pretty tied up and he was having to play a series of worldies to try and bring them into pottable positions, an in off like that was always a danger but he had to take the risks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 To be fair he was still up against it, the others were pretty tied up and he was having to play a series of worldies to try and bring them into pottable positions, an in off like that was always a danger but he had to take the risks He could have potted it long into the corner pocket instead of taking the thin cut and still found position without ever going near the in off. Poor decision and poor execution. Some pleasing gasps both in the commentary booth and around the arena when he did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fotbawmad Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) Hawkins, O'Sullivan has definitely been the best match of the tournament. and it's unlikely we'll see a better match than that. If Hawkins is able to maintain that standard. He could go onto win the tournament. Edited April 25, 2016 by Fotbawmad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I reckon it will have taken too much out of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Really interesting tournament though. I'd say McManus was a long shot but you could make a case for any of the other seven winning it. Normally there's one clear favourite, one or two possibles and a bunch of no chancers left at this stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Has O'Sullivan threatened to chuck it again? We can only hope..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Does he get fined when he misses loads of tournaments? I remember them threatening Ding with a fine if he didn't turn up for some pointless snooker awards night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 His press conference was subdued and candid. Said he had a problem earlier in the week but feels fine now and will back next year. Check out Betfred facebook for the outpouring of grief from Ronnie's army of fans, fucking delightful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooky Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 A really good game in the all-Scottish quarter. 3-1 McManus over Higgins so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) The way the balls were set, the 114 break McManus hit in the second frame was as good as any I've seen this tourney. Had to work very hard at it and lost position a couple of times, but it was a brilliant break. Edited April 26, 2016 by peasy23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Absolutely rattling watching both matches here. Great entertainment. Fu Hibsed the best chance so far to win it. Higgins playing utter gubbins as well, deservedly oot by the looks of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooky Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Fantastic by McManus, first semi-final appearance in 23 years! Fu looks like he's totally bottled the other game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
