Think that Rack Pack looks good. Will download that tomorrow. Bit of fun by the look of it
Welsh Open next chaps. The whisper of Darren Morgan, the eccentricity of Dominic Dale and wisdom of Willie to look forward to |

Kyren Wilson won the Shanghai Masters a few months back and Michael White won his first major last year, both are 24, but the truth is it's more competitive further in depth than it used to be and a lot of young talent are struggling to make an impact.
It’s great now that players that aren’t in the official top 16 at the end of the world championships can still get to the Ally Pally and the Crucible due to excellent form during the following season and so not have to worry about going through qualifying to make them. |

Well that was a bit of an Anti climax wasn't it. Ronnie winning 10-1 after 8 months without much competitive snooker and not playing his best? That shows just how good his best is.
Feel for Barry Hawkins but someone earlier saying he's an average player is ridiculous. You don't win two ranking tournaments and reach the final of the Masters being an 'average' player. Roll on 16th April! |

Effortless for Ronnie. I said it before, Ronnie IS snooker and the greatest player of all time. Ronnie has been around over 20 years and yet still no other player has come through in that time to create anywhere near the excitement he does. A lot of these "young pretenders" get hyped up as being the next big thing seemingly on the basis that they are young, edgy and wear gel in their hair. None of them have got what it takes (yet).
Judd Trump ? Your having a laugh. |

O' Sullivan may well be the greatest player of all time but I enjoy seeing him get beaten because of his endless petulant, childish and knob like behaviour.

I was forgetting the German Masters is before the Welsh. Yep, not long to wait. Of course no Ronnie in it, he got hammered in the qualifiers
Germany, Welsh, Gydnia, World Grand Prix, Players Championship Finals, China and of course the World qualifiers all to come in the next 2/3 months. Should be good

Wanted to give Bazza a great big bear hug at the end - he seems such a genuinely nice person and magnanimous in defeat.
Ronnie is exciting to watch but his endless threats to quit the game and griping about playing badly when thrashing everyone in sight is both tiresome and disrespectful. Many people have a hard life growing up but they don't moan like nobody's business when leading what is a rather privileged life. Well done Rocket, but get over yourself. |

Not there as yet. I think the iplayer on Sky is a catch up service, and the fact it hasn't been shown on TV means it won't be available unfortunately.

Anyone watched it yet what are your thoughts? I thought it was brilliant and well put together and some fantastic acting, who knows what went on behind the scenes, was he really like that? it was so sad.
