Yep. Tomorrow should be a cracker

[Billy]

ok, this is it, the day has finally come, not since 2001 has ROS faced a player that will truly stand up to him in a WC final

Like he did in the Masters, you mean?

[stephenm2682]

lol yeah more of the same i hope billy!

[RaveDave]

I hope Ronnie beats him up. Selby winning would be the death of snooker.

If that is the case, then it has already died twice when Ebdon and Dott captured their respective titles!

Selby has always been my least favourite player, but that changed during the semi-final when Robertson collected that mantle! I like the way that Selby is always gracious in defeat, and his bottle cannot be questioned. He also played some fantastic snooker during that match and wasn't particularly slow, certainly not in comparison to matches gone by.

However, I agree with your first sentiment and I hope Ronnie wins with ease.

Selby played faster than Robertson
Also he knows his bs slow play don't work no more against ros and tries to outplay him straight up as seen in this year's masters. Comenable really

Selby of previous years maybe but its been a bit more refreshing seeing him get on with things more. Not so many negative safety shots and a sign of this is how few re-racks he has been involved in, that is usually a sign that Selby is playing games.

He is scoring well and of course you know his safety is always top drawer. I have no problem with him being a hard match player, its when he resorts to tactics like Robbo did against Judd that I feel it kills the game and needs to be stamped out.
This final has a great clash of styles so should be a classic.

[TornadoTed]

My two favourite players in the final, I hope it's a classic and honestly will be happy whoever wins. I would love Ronnie to equal Davis and Reardon and get one closer to Hendry but would also love Selby to win his first title.

I think I dislike Robertson more after every match I see him in, got to be my least favourite player by a large margin.

[waterski]

I think ronnie would win selby 18-2 or 18-3

[luke-h]

I think it's safe to say Selby has been replaced by Robertson as the most grating player, so pretentious. Gave him the benefit of the doubt with that untimely celebration in the Trump match but his slow play, moaning about the crowd has put that nail in the coffin....until the next person to annoy me.

Hope O'Sullivan get's his 3rd in a row the match is going to be epic

[streamer45]

Dream final, couldn't have asked for anything else really

[wemba]

I'm hoping for another close match with brilliant potting, sensational safety and lots of suspense.

[cyberheater]

I have noticed that Ronnie has been slow out of the gate in matches allowing opponents to get a couple of frames on him. I hope he has sorted that issue out or Selby could run away from him.

[Wim]

Selby and not Robertson with his unjustified arrogance in the final is just a good thing. Ronnie decides who will win the final , if he is at the top of his game he will be the champ !
