This should be a brilliant match.
Personally, I'm backing Dott. Which was obvious. Anyway, yeah, Dott played excellently against Stevens - the whole match was so tense.
Wonderful, wonderful final frame. Good stuff.

So - who are you backing?
Roll up the idiots who say Ronnie.

I cant help laughing at him as he 'tries' to be funny at times on tv, like when he attempted to do clearing up all the coloured ball challange the other day.

Top Man.

That made me laugh too. But I was also kind of cringing at the same time.

Best Steve Davis quote(ish) ever:
"Talking during sex is great... but only if it's about snooker"

He is the man :^)


The final? Ronnie's on supurb form, but if Graeme plays gritty snooker and contains Ronnie for long enough, he can break O'Sullivan's rhythm.

Hendry managed it in (I think) the first session of the second day of their semi, but wasn't playing well enough by that stage to take advantage of the opportunities he got.


But with Reardon in O'Sullivan's corner, probably putting him back on track between each session, Dott will have to be playing that gritty snooker and breaking him down consistantly throughout the match.


Of course, it's also possible that Ronnie simply won't bring the spectacular form that he showed against Hendry into the final.
Hicks (playing well, but no better than Dott can) took him close earlier in the competition, who would have predicted that?
If O'Sullivan plays to that standard, Dott has a great chance.

Though if Dott gets close to the finish line, expect Ronnie to really raise his game.
Still, because of his temprement, he could still be broken by Dott. If Dott can contain an on-form Ronnie for a little while, it'll be even more frustrating for him.


I expect Ronnie to do it, but Dott probably has more of a chance than you'd first expect.

IN YEWR FASEZ ROLF!!!11

Etc.

3-0 just now.
I'd do the whole Kevin Keegan, "I would love it..." thing, but I can't be bothered.

COME ON GRAEME!
Woo.
Dott is a superb safety player, so I can see this match being very tense.

Despite losing 4-0 O'sullivan is still favourite to win with Will hill.

I want Dott to win now, though I had been suppporting Hendry up until he lost.

Dott still has every chance, but I have to say Ronnie looks good value to take the title - overall he seems the more complete player.
