    • @stevemawer848
      @stevemawer848 Před rokem +12

      The players can choose to ignore the questions while they're down on the shot, though, so they're complicit. They're pros, and know how to focus when they want to.

      @Correction294 Před rokem +9

      @@stevemawer848 Wether or not they answer on the shot, it’s still extremely off putting to be getting asked questions while on the shot at all. It’s only polite to respond to the questions while on camera otherwise it comes across as slightly awkward. Im not saying the show should become serious - I’m saying for the benefit of the tough table challenge segment, they should allow the pro to concentrate for a few minutes so that we get to see some more impressive results.

    Ronnie's such a delight to listen to in this (and the interview video).

Kind of unlikely in the normal media because they're only ever interested in Ronnie's personal life/problems or anything 'controversial'. hopefully he has found his good place now and can just share his wisdom & opinion honestly without being hung out to dry.

      The original with Ronnie was over 30 minutes, this is an extra.

    Is it tactical chat ? Are you maybe trying to put players off with the chat 😂, regardless another great video.

    Stephen definitely had about 100 go's tries before he settled on 82! 😄

    So nice to see Ronnie in his own element away from the tour. He seems like a very friendly warm sort of person. I bet he would be a fun guy to sit around a fire shooting the shit with a bunch of likeminded folks. So many of the top players are stone faced and solitary when playing and it's fun to see them in their home environment.

    These videos have definitely helped changed my perception of Ronnie. Actually seems like a decent bloke

    Stephen your CZcams content is amazing, better than the BBC offers for snooker,
    Your a legend of the game and your videos are very enjoyable to watch, this is definitely promoting snooker and Barry hearn and his team should reward for it.
    Your doing there job.
