    I think it’ll go to a decider. I’ve a feeling Hawkins is going to win this frame at this visit

    that pack does not want to be split.

    Black not on the black spot. Not straightforward.

    He's bang on to that bottom right. It's the left is the problem. Over cutting that pink to compensate. He has serious trouble with that bag on lower shots.

    Williams had to play the insurance ball early, but he could be on now. Just reading about the 1946 final, best of 145 frames. On the 11th day, the winner took a decisive 73-58 lead. Stamina doubts about the runner up. Didn't stay the course

    Missed while I was typing that novel :)

    Hawkins, what have you done?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,856 ✭✭✭Mysterypunter


    The hawk in a pickle


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,095 ✭✭✭✭omb0wyn5ehpij9


    That was criminal by Hawkins there to snooker himself


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭taytobreath


    That blue moved


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,474 ✭✭✭AllForIt


    Shocking error by Hawkins there, this frame isn't over yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭taytobreath


    Oh my god I knew I wasn’t seeing things


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,069 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    I'm all for sportsmanship, but he shouldn't have had the blue reset there

    That was a clever shot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,001 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Barry must be kicking himself. Schoolboy error.

    The hawk in a pickle

    Looks like he's extricated himself...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,856 ✭✭✭Mysterypunter

    Why not? Play fair, its not cycling


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,253 ✭✭✭Stonedpilot


    Hawkins getting red top of his head with pressure. great game.
    think my prediction is on 17-15 to Williams.

    Why not? He did the right thing. And what was he meant to do? It was clear he was snookered, and after leaning on the table the blue moved, so he could hardly play the red then without people knowing the blue moved!

    The ball moved entirely by itself I thought I was seeing things and rewinded it to make sure I wasnt


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,088 ✭✭✭✭loyatemu


    he had to point it out, it was obvious on camera he was snookered.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 322 ✭✭Brae100

    He absolutely should. He would have been cheating otherwise. One of the great things about snooker is the sportsmanship.

    I wouldn't want to play this game for a long time if I was Barry, should he lose.
