Ronnie V Neil Robertson

[Blondie]

... so I think it will be tough match and nobody knows who will win

Hi Missy,

..........I agree, and that's the great part about it, keeping us all guessing.

[Mitsuko]

Hopefully Robertson will win

Hello again,

With most games, I have a favourite, but this match, I quite like both player's style, I am just hoping for a cracking match. think it'll be close..

[Rane]

After O´Sullivans behavior at several occasions. He doesn´t deserve to win any more titles by my opinion but beeing one of the strongest he probably will .

Anyway he has had the worst draw off all, so I don´t expect him to go all the way (in fact Dings confidence is so low that mayby he was one of the easiest draws at the moment). I hope Robertson can take this match and the title in the end, but I still think everything is wide open.

I think Ronnie will win this no problem - Neil has beaten him in there last two encounters and i dont think Ronnie is going to let that happen again.
There is no doubt in my mind that the winner of this match will make the final. Whatever happens this is going to be a great match - shame i am at work!!! i will be having a sneeky look on the bbc Interactive coverage though!!!

Hi Joe,

........agree, and I'm wishing the days away, also agree with Dan earlier that Ron will be psyched up for the match, and maybe perform one of his demolition jobs...

I think you might be writing off the rest of the players in the top draw a bit too soon there. Maguire played very well, and John Higgins seems to have found his form again quickly. Higgins could be waiting for the winner of this match in the quarter final, and Maguire in the semi.

The winner of this key match will be the top favourite anyway - mcguire could be the dangerous outsider then

[cueman]

I think this match has the makings of an absolute classic. For me the key is O'Sullivan starting off well. If he doesn't, I think he will struggle to live with Robertson if the Aussie is playing on top form. Ronnie is a great front runner but he is not so great from behind, you can put him under pressure with a good start.

I think it will be tight all the way through and its all down to the final session. I think it could be a deciding frame scenario although I have predicted Ronnie to win comfortably, based on Robertson's performance against Day!

[RaNeN]

Its going to be Ronnie O'Sullivan! Just wait and watch!

[MacZidane]

I put money on Robertson to win the tournament, and due to the draw got pretty good odds (16/1 for a two time title winner this season).

Hi Zen [sorry Mac, couldn't resist it... ]

.........interesting, hmmmm....Robbo 16/1 to win the tournament, and is that betting price just to win the tournament, or for the Ron/Robbo match as well?

Can't wait, the excitement continues to build.........

[zong]

it'd be a close one if Robbo (or both)plays well, i can't wait as well...
