World Snooker Championship

Can see it here just after 1730

No idea what on earth you're talking about. Ron's standing by his seat at 11 o'clock while Selby's line of sight is towards 1'oclock on that shot.

I'm not the biggest fan of Ronnie away from the table; eg I agree with those who think his comments about the standard of snooker amongst young players is derogatory, but it doesn't change that he's magic to watch play.

If he can win the final he'll be the oldest winner I can remember at 44 - another thing to admire about him, as most snooker players are well past their peak at a much younger age.

He had the shot played before he stood up. So selby now has been proven to tell lies . Well done for pointing that out

I like Hendry as a commentator, never afraid to speak his mind, and as he's been there and done it all he knows what he's talking about.

I know who I'd rather watch.

Should go back over every match at previous World Championships and see if any of the crowd scratched their noses or adjusted their specs while in the line of sight. Selby might have discovered a reason not to let them back in.

If he's so easily distracted then that's an issue with the concentration aspect of his own game.

sorry, tbf I was looking at 5:30 rather than 17:30. Is it significant? it shouldn't be.

I'm not a Selby hater by any means; you can only play to your own strengths.. but that is ridiculous.

Desperate stuff that pal.

He simply got himself ready because he knows Selby won't be potting the ball, then gets up AFTER he took the shot.

Hendry is the best commentator they've got. Everything he says is interesting and he can read the player's minds better than anyone else. Obviously you have to have massive respect for his words. If he speaks then you listen and learn basically.

Hendry, Parrott & just about every single commentator have already forgotten more about the game of Snooker than 99.9% of the viewing audience will ever know. Yeah, when they speak its wise to listen; I haven't exactly earned the right to question it.

Of course we'd all rather watch Selby, nothing like the thrilling spectacle of a tactical masterclass where he has worked out his next 100 shots.

Great interview this between Hendry and O'Sullivan.

 

[ToffeeTim]

So good hearing actual applause

Wilson needed to snatch that frame there.

Not a great standard so far but probably understandable after the drama they both went through yesterday.

It's a final but feels a bit after the Lord Mayor's show this.
