The Masters Jan 11 - 18, 2015

Murphy missed with the rest !
Robbo's last chance to rescue the comeback ?

Has Willie Thorne given up the commentating?

No. Pretty certain he will be part of the commentary team at this year's World Championship..

[Masterdoctorgenius]

hahaha

and many thought neil would win this for sure. total garbage from neil. and that from a WN1 and in his so called peak he is getting spanked. beating ronnie is one thing, winning a final another

Has Willie Thorne given up the commentating?

I wish it was JV. WT is the best and they have this clown Virgo on all finals day. He talks one load of crap.

I don't think I've ever seen Robbo miss a straight easy red before. 0_o

[daffie]

Anyone know why the camera keeps panning into the crowd for a split second at random women? Whats up with the camera man?

...what's *up*?! ...surely you're not serious ???!!!

[cyberheater]

For Robbo to win this. Well. It would be one of the best snooker comebacks of all time.

Murphy has played extremely well all tournament
and is a deserving winner. Well done. Its nice to
see him playing with such confidence.

I've got a feeling it's going to a late night fellas.

Yeah...I have the same sneaky feeling Love this frame!

We certainly got that one right, didn't we?!

[hesnookerforum]

Which other players have done the triple? I would guestimate :

Hendry,
Davis,
O'Sullivan,
Higgins,
Selby

Am I close? ...who else?

As far as i know, there are 8 of them and Murphy will be 9th. Robertson did as well.

Will Murphy cry guys what do you all think? I think he will.

If he really tries, yes.

But then I won't be watching.

Just shake hands, Robbo, for f#^k's sake! I could've given him a better game with a fooking broom handle!!

I would say Robertson's performance today is probably down to the fact yesterday against Ronnie in his mind was his final.
He seems flat today, has not looked positive from the start, he's usually very dominant around the table and there has been very little of him strutting around like he owns the place.

Murphy has fed off that and played the same game as he has done all week and perhaps the draw has been more favourable because I doubt he'd have beaten O'Sullivan as he has a terrible record against him.
Murphy has been in form all season though so its no surprise he's playing so well in the final. Robertson has been very average by contrast and maybe needs to do more work to get his consistency back.

Whilst its disappointing to see a one sided final we've had plenty of those down the years so maybe we were due one. Quite often these days players are so evenly matched that a close match is almost always guaranteed but the semi's should have been a warning that this was a possibility.
The tournament itself though has been very enjoyable and that for me is more important than one great final and a lot of poor games in the other rounds.

Don't think Ebdon won the masters
