Just needs to be careful on his break offs and punish Selby when he makes a mistake, was rooting for Selby but hope Murphy forces a decider

After you saying it Murphy broke off and left the red again...
Missed but still Selby got a handy 'in' after all is said and done.

Was hoping for a little fist pump again there. Mighty stuff from Murphy.

Are we doing what the Brits usually do and claiming him as Irish yeah?

Sure why not - he's a lot more Irish than the folks the Brits usually try to steal are British! :pac:

Murphy undoes his good work again and again

You do know that he has won frames, including one in the world championship against Hendry from that exact position??

Knew some stat be carted out, I'm sure somewhere someone's won needing 10. That's not the point ,it's the reason why he chooses to do it is........only to frustrate,annoy and wear the opponent down, that's my point.
Rack 'em ref is what he should be saying, win on merit or not at all. It's pure negative, it sickens me seeing it tbf

Marvelous frame for Selby to get to 17.

Summed up Selby's game:

1) Win the tactical battle.
2) Patience.
3) When given the chance took in a manner that was 'no risk' if he missed it.
4) Knocked in a century

If people don't understand what 'matchplay' is there is your ultimate example.

Sounds like Alex Higgins' nightmare

Game over now

100% !



I think although Selby's wife Vicki player pool for Ireland, she was born in Ipswich.

Murphy is an honorary Dub as far as I am concerned.

Bill was a tragic case really.

He could knock in big breaks, regularly did so at the Crucible.

Met an early end in 2003.

This news piece is very sad really, he knew the direction he was heading in by the time of his ban in the late 80s

Surely TUE would have covered for him?

Cmon Murphy

CMON MURPHY TO FCUK

sligeach

I was sure that was in.

BorneTobyWilde

Has to win this frame from here, no excuse.

gormdubhgorm

This is a decent chance for Murphy, should get back level in the frame - worst case scenario.

Say Your Number

This has gone from boring to compelling very quickly.

HeidiHeidi

Me nerves

alan partridge aha

Savage pot

raclle

Should score enough here to win the frame. I always worry about his positional play though

Feck it he did neither after all that.

HeidiHeidi

Now we'll see how strong Selby's nerve is.......

raclle

Just as I said it

sligeach

"1 from 10". Go for it Selby.

Edit: Boo!

alan partridge aha

Hendry has a delightfully dry sense of humout

gormdubhgorm

Jayus Selby's long pot success is only 1 in 10 for this session.

And JV builds it up and Selby plays safe.

Classic Virgo.

Great pot Murphy a 40 ish break would do.

sligeach

This is tough!

I find Hendry is best commentating with a jokey 'mouth' co-comm. Good mixture.

namloc1980

This is interesting now.

HeidiHeidi

God almighty, and they call Selby made of granite.....


I know he has to go for everything at this stage - but Murphy is just ice-cool!

Raving_Magic

Turned into a cracking match now

Cmon Murph

Crucible snooker at its best

BorneTobyWilde

No way he pots this with the rest,

raclle

I wouldn't take this on

namloc1980

Oh feck

sligeach

It's not gonna go. Selby got away with one earlier.

HeidiHeidi

Foooooooookkkk!!!

KevRossi

Selby would never have taken that red on the cushion on. That's the difference.

Raving_Magic

He should never have went for that shot. Match done

His natural game.

It should be game over now surely?

alan partridge aha

Hendry should go into coaching

BorneTobyWilde

Stupid to even try it,

raclle

Noooooooooooooo

volono

This be some red

BorneTobyWilde

And if he was going for it, hit it harder , don't leave it

~Rebel~

Oh no! Hard to see any way back from here.

He'll dream about that one for years!
