OK, so Ronnie prevailed & got to the Final.

Both semi finals were full of fluke shots & both went to the final frame!!

I won't chase my loss, but will still enjoy the final - Ronnie V Kyren.

Maybe It's in the stars for a New world Champion.

Kyren's wife is reportedly not in good health at the moment - Ronnie has already done it all & nothing to prove!!

I'm just saying!!

Split the money but make it a good show ??

£500,000 to the winner & £200,000 for 2nd.

£350,000 apiece is not a bad result for both!!. & a great result for Snooker - A new kid on the block!!

Amazing semi-finals, never seen a days play like it. The deciding frame between Wilson and McGill was unbelievable, best frame of snooker for pressure and drama i've ever watched. Ronnie is just a messed up genius! His head had well and truly gone, he walks out, walks back in and knocks in the most sublime 138 clearance, utter genius. I thought Selby was full of sour grapes after, he tried everything he could to slow the game down and push Ronnie over the edge with his slow play tactics. He's a great player, but he bores the life out of me with how he plays. 

Should be a fun final. I think the occasion will be too much for Kyren and the pressure will get to him, Ronnie has been there and seen it all, so I predict a 6th world title for O'Sullivan. But Kyren seems a nice lad and I won't be disappointed should he win, but i'll be rooting for Ronnie the mad, crazy genius.

I still think - "Jim'l Fix It" for Kyren!!

Snooker needs something different.

All,

O'Sullivan has little regard for Kyren. Won't be snooker skill that wins it all. O'Sullivan is a predator whilst Wilson truly didn't want to send anyone home on a fluke. 

The victory will be a battle of personalities  not snooker

Phone, I really don't know but maybe snooker needs a new Hero.

Maybe Ronnie will have too many  guns - but Wilson will be well aware of that!!

I haven't watched bar billiards since jocky Wilson played darts

They could make it interesting putting tiny magnets in the balls and in random places on the table or joke balls that act like hand grenades at unpredictable times or crown green snooker etc

How about a vibrating device that connects to their sleeves the audience can trigger if they put money in a pot for the NHS to spend on art.itmust be boring just watching we need audience participation and watch it hit top ratings

Perhaps put the tables in an ice rink and the players wear slippery shoes should be fun

As you can tell i am not a fan of sport unless itcould save your life !running ok ,archery good,guns brilliant ,swimming at a pinch but i cannot see snooker skills impress a mad bear or gang of zombies what are they going to do put the chalk in their eyes and hope they get away if they go blind or sneeze ,snooker is very low down the SHTF scenario it needs bringing up to date

Nope cant see it "stand behind me folks i am a snooker expert!" Nope it just doesnt ring true

OH kyren is a man ! No girls bit sexist you could have doubles matches and the girls lay on her back with her bahoonies acting as a rest for the stick that would improve watching figures a hundred fold,i would watch it ,i would watch it a lot!

I'm surprised you know about snooker old chap, I didn't think it was really known in the States. 

*And I agree with your analogy 100%
