masters

I can't wait for todays final. There have been surprisingly few Higgins O'Sullivan final encounters considering how many seemed likely a decade ago. I think Ronnie is slight favourite today but it's going to be close.

Ronnie will win without a doubt!! Paul Hunter......good player....sleazy person.....forced my bird against a walll and tried snogging her......got his autograph tho lol.

Contgratulations for Ronnie!!! that was a kickin` game. I`m a little bit disappointed with Higgins, he kind of didn`t exist during game. But what could he do with such great Ronnie`s performance.
Can you tell me where I can find aftermatch interviews with both finslists, bocause Eurosport didn`t show them?

Eddie, more for the non-European Forum Members, but I've just put some final session footage on my Kazaa folder if anyone wants to download it, there's a few pictures too (quite a few Meg as I've not had time to crop/edit/sort properly etc), it's experimental but reduced about 1.5Gig down to less than 50MB. I'll probably leave the PC on overnight the next few days, see what the uptake is - do a search on 'Snooker' and you'll see all the files.
Ronnie Vs Maguire in the Irish Masters - tasty.

You can watch the interviews at

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/othe...er/default.stm

under "Watch highlights as Ronnie O'Sullivan beats John Higgins to win the Masters"...

The Danish commentator on Eurosport said that Eurosport doesn't have the rights to show the interviews, so that's why we never get to see them

Ronnie was playing outstanding last night. I haven't seen anything like this!
He was just awesome!

Other streams from the BBC are restricted to UK only; can some of our Non-UK members tell us if this link works for them.

[Eddie]

thx for the link Kiddo!
to reverse side: I dont see any other link except for the one with highlights given by Kiddo.
I`ve searched Kazaa for your snooker footage but either my Kazaa cannot find it or I cant really recognize it (there`s quite a lot of stuff showed when you enter `snooker` in the search bar).

PM'd some details to you, sounds good that the link works for you in Poland, during the Masters the live stream was restricted to UK only - not encouraging snooker on a global stage very well. That contrasts with the fact that the BBC are partly sponsoring the China Open; more coverage hopefully.

[Kiddo]

The snooker streams on BBC always work for me and I'm from Denmark...

Are you sure you have the right media player? Before I got RealPlayer they didn't work for me either...

[Eddie]

streaming works good for me as well (everything is fine with my player), I just told you that I don`t see any other video links (from masters) apart from the one with the last frame and interviews. Is there any other footage from the masters on this bbc site?
