World Championship 2009 - Final Discussion

[gby4]

I might be alone here, but i'm still expecting a comeback from Shaun!

Why not? Murphy has made one of the greatests comebacks against Mathew Stevens to come back and win from 12-5. Or what was the score then ?

Great halfcentury from John followed by a great safety shot to help him pinch the frame.

[brettski]

Murphy has now lost 5 on the trot to JH and 7 yesterday to NR. Worrying.

Higgins will be harder than Neil he needs to try and stop the Scot getting too far ahead because he will and can pull away with his ability.

Higgins led Selby 12-4 and saw his advantage whittled down to just a single frame so it's far from over yet. Would be a huge help for Shaun if he could take this though.

dark times for shaun john will have to play a bad session tomorrow for a murphy come back as another gear seems to be missing

[brettski]

By Johns last shot I don't think he intends on handing this to Murphy.

This is the worst ive seen Murphy play in 3 seasons.

That's what i was thinking. Though if John continues as he is though it's hard to envisage murphy winning.

Go easy on the boy,what can he do sat down?

Exactly one can do nothing sat in your chair. Well played John Higgins great first half to the final and deserved scoreline.

True but I have respect for Murphy and I'm sure tomorrow will bring a comeback in some form, see I'm fair at times Roy

I'm sure of that too, so happy that John has built up a nice little buffer there

Even the long potting has returned now!

[RocketRoy1983]

And to think 3 years or so ago I thought Higgins was past it.

[Matt_2745]

Sheer class from Higgins.

[RGCirencester]

wow what a display from higgins. I really need to know what coffee he drinks.
