One of the funniest things I've ever seen was when someone famous was being interviewed and he said that his famous player was "Henry", cue a clip of Drew Henry playing a shot. It then cut back to the interviewee who corrected himself and said "Sorry, Hendry". They cut back to the clip of Drew Henry once more and put it in fast rewind and then they played a slip of Hendry pulling off a sublime shot. It was just so weird and funny. I don't know if it was cock-up or what but I cracked up watching it.

[carl1]

[aldo0978]

Thanks lads its a good subject cause we all have our own opinions but def some agreement in some catagories.

Am surprised I got as many people agreeing on robbo for the long pots and disapointed not more think Higgins best all round.

I guess all round game and best ever player similarcatagory so maybe dont seperate them like me.

9) Peoples favorite - Jimmy White

[Steerforth]

1) Best ever player? Hendry by a distance.

2) Most complete game? Reardon.

3) Best break builder? Hendry clearly.

4) Best Safety Game? Steve Davis.

5) Best Long ball potter? Parrott potted anything for a couple of seasons. Or Cliff Wilson for a bit of nostalgia.

6) Best Talent - Ronnie O'Sullivan.

7) Most exciiting to watch? Alex Higgins (by several universes).

8) Best match player? Hendry had more bottle than all the rest of them put together; followed by John Higgins. I'd stick Cliff Thorburn into this category as well.
