Amazing in both games. Ronnie was incredible in those last three frames. That snooker escape off two cushions then behind the black was just mind boggling.

It was a great days entertainment,i would like to see Wilson win the final but i think that yesterday took a lot out of him mentally & emotionally & O'sullivan may win quite easily.

You could be right about him winning easily. I think only O'Sullivan can beat himself. He is in a good place and is strutting around the table like a bloke on the street would with 10 pints inside him.

Preferred the game in black and white to be honest.

What he actually said was, for those watching in black and white the last red is next to the blue. Most people knew that the blue was on it's spot and therefore it was a perfectly legitimate announcement to make as most snooker fans ( if not all ) got the message. I was actually watching when he said it. Perfectly clear.
Now "the batsman's Holding the bowler's Wllley" was different altogether. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

The final has been quite dull.

Say what you like about Mark Selby, I really like the guy, but at least he takes the game to O'Sullivan and puts him under pressure. Kyren Wilson hasn't offered anything to trouble him. Just a procession.
