    Aah, he's had 4 decent chances to take this frame and hasnt made the most of any of them. Key point of match here i think.

    I'm afraid you're right. Can see Ronnie running away with frame wins now

    That plant certainly didn't look on from the tv angle, made a hames of it anyway. Hint of desperation about it. Bad sign.

    6 -5 to rocket. If Jordan doesn't win next frame he's bolloxed

    Definitely got a bit of cohones brown, say that much for him. Deserved that frame. Still a big outsider but you never know, ronnie bit in and out over the course of the match.

    Needs to get a frame in one visit... Hasn't been doing that enough.... And he needs to avoid that blue on the way back to baulk - he's cannoned it several times today.

    We saw a few hit and hopes from Ronnie before the interval. Remind you of his semi final against Selby in Sheffield last August.

    Ronnie angry about that replaced cueball... Brendan Moore could only go on one camera angle - surely Ronnie would have played the same shot the second time... Could yet be controversial,,, But Jordan won't care :pac:

    Ronnie is going to be embarrassed if he loses this, after calling lower ranked players numpties and the like

    Outstanding performance for a player ranked 81 at the start of the week. Not sure whats the lowest ranked player to win a ranking title, this would have to be close. If he gets there! Fingers crossed for him, some nerve so far!

    Brown looks unusually composed and relaxed for a player going for his first ranking win. I don’t think nerves are going to play a part in this.

    Not sure he knows how, and that's not necessarily a dig.

    Some frame there from Brown.

    Just when I think Ronnie has lost the plot he comes back with a century. Unpredictable.

    Good break, but fortunate to get in after a bad safety shot kind of forced brown to go for a long red having to swerve slightly round the yellow

    Think thats 3 frame winning breaks without pink or blacks this match. Cue ball on a string, no one comes even close for control. Still, jammy fecker with that nudge on brown, though!

    I wouldn't have recognised him...was trying to make a joke about Rob Walker's sexuality there earlier or something...can't see him being invited back.

    Fair play to him
    You could see he was feeling the pressure, but he held himself together well

    Didn’t even make it past the 2nd round in any tournament last season, 3rd round the season before that. Off the tour altogether from ‘10 - ‘17. Fair play to him.

    Around 6-5, I thought he'd f*cked it. Great composure to come back and finish that.

    Just a pity he couldn't have done it in front of a live crowd. Must be weird with the piped in sounds and all.

    It was only a few frame intervals back - 15 or 16 maybe. Attempt at schoolboy humour but wouldn't have thought it'd be acceptable on the BBC.

    3 final losses in a row. Not sure this O'Sullivan fella has the bottle to win.
