2014 World Championship - Discussion

Here's a poser for you all to sleep on (depending on what part of the world you're in): How far is Dominic Dale going to go?

Hopefully all the way (if Neil doesn't win) as I put $2 on him at 400/1.

Some dude from radio 5 live.

I mentioned this earlier.

George someone? He's a radio presenter apparently, he's been in the winter gardens a fair bit this week and commenting between frames with Hazel/Davis/Parrot/Hendry, you can tell he's a big fan, i've only heard him commentating on one frame so far.

OK, thanks, each.

a wee round white badge.

that doesn't narrow it down as many makers use the 15/16mm badges

Ken D has the rack cue he found at and bought from a club many years ago.
MacManus cue I will have to look at my pc

MacManus cue is a copy Parris made if his old two piece that had the tape on the joint. He had it made as a one piece.

Dean, it looked to have a wee round white badge. Pretty plain butt design. Story I heard was that Alan used a rack cue that he found and liked. Probably another one of those myths. Look forward to hearing if you've got any info.

I'd definitely fancy Ronnie to beat Murphy. No chance of him underestimating a former world champ, something I think he could be guilty of if he played Fu.

[PatBlock]

Dom played really well but what the hell happened to Wasley? I bet Ding was sitting at home screaming at the telly!
Well he must have a better session tomorrow, surely.

Predictions:

If Robertson is still fired up, he will destroy Allen. Murphy vs Fu will be close. I favour Fu.
Trump will continue his lead while not playing very good. I don't know what has happened to Wasley, but if he plays like he has nothing to lose, who knows.

[ywfan]

fu vs murphy
1. who will win?
2. which one will ROS prefer?

[robertmac]

Great matchups tomorrow. Robertson, Murphy and Trump and Dale
are who I hope go forward.

IIRC he has had a maple for many years

Do you know make of cue he plays with Dean??

I heard a rumour that he was playing with a new cue.....

sorry away from pc at the mo been playing snooker
will check when I get back.
not heard anything about a new cue
who knows, as it seems nearly all players recently have been trying out new cues

[ShellH]

Did John Virgo just describe Stuart Bingham as a young and upcoming player? He's 37.

Oh no, really that's funny. He has won a few.

[ywfan]

somewhere someplace ding kicking himself.
At least ROS won earlier.
Ding cannot beat Ronnie at this point in time
