2018 World Championship

I worry about Ding’s hunger. Maybe it’s just his way, but quite often I look at him in his chair and he looks like he’d rather be anywhere else but where he is.

If Walden and Trump go on like this, we could have a very long evening of snooker...

I’ve overdosed on snooker this week. I’ll watch the Ding match out, but will catch the score from the other in tonight’s highlights.

You have to ask why McGill didn’t use the rest on that yellow. If you’re that uncomfortable using the implement, then maybe you should include its use in your practice sessions.

If they haven't changed it since

Thanks, Dean, that’s the one. Never have dreamed it came from a Disney film. It sounded very catchy, which I suppose makes sense, but also a bit Gnarl Barkley, or whatever he’s called.

Can anyone tell me what Ricky Walden’s walk-on song was tonight, pleaser?

I think Higgins is going to win the world’s this time.

It's highly, highly unlikely for me that Carter wins it, but I wouldn't write him off totally.
I don't think the chances of Wilson or Hawkins are much worse than Trumps.

agree with you there. dont think trump has the game at the moment to win. or the bottle to do it. has to be between ding higgins and allen

Ha yeah so true, I never thought of that.
Judd likes his clothes an all that and baldness can affect a man..... ( women dont understand ).!

Bald women do.
Judd's losing it no doubt and he could go for that Davy Crocket look and take Jimmy's place as the best non world champion, but as long as he's earning top money he won't be short of female company.

Can't see wilson, Walden, Hawkins winning it. Maybe couldn't even see carter winning. Either not enough experience or no bottle

But it is 10-6.

So for the quarterfinals we've (highly probably) got:

Allen - Wilson
Higgins - Trump/Walden
Ding - Hawkins
Williams - Carter

I've got to say this is a very nice line-up. I think among those eight (or nine) players there's nobody you could automatically scratch from the list of contenders for the title (maybe Walden, but if he would play his very best you would have to include him as well). Also this could be eight pretty close matches on their own already.

Nah I'd rather see Williams vs Carter than Milkins vs Carter :P

Me too. But I also would have hoped for a closer ending to this match.

[Dr_Doctor]

You've got to hope Milkins wins the last frame of this session. At 10-6 I think this match would be over as well.

Nah I'd rather see Williams vs Carter than Milkins vs Carter :P
