Only Ronnie can give the ref a warning 😂😂

[GamingRobioto]

This referee has been doing my head in all match so far

[Steppa]

0:54 Ronnie:- "Don't Start"

[TomMathesonColes]

Dennis Taylor is exactly right, he could've said it after the game, the frame was close to ending and Judd was on frame ball, pretty unprofessional to break the focus like that.

[writetosrj]

Maybe Ronnie is so quick at the table, that even his gestures or words can't be caught on camera.

[slottyken]

Totally agree with JT, ref could have and should have waited till the frame was over before making his point.

[roddydykes]

It’s great when the commentators are on the side of the players and not the refs

[gutgolf]

Well done, ref, pissing off BOTH players at the same time!!

[chinchin]

I dont know why but as time goes by I like Judd more and more, he came as a cocky hippie wired lad and turned into a classy gentleman, hes such an incredible professional player.
But I still love Ronnie more though.

Whether Ronnie did the wrong thing or not here, there's a right time and a wrong time to have those conversations. This was the wrong time and it's fortunate for Judd that it didn't interrupt his concentration. Had he missed the next shot it could easily have been the fault of the referee. Even Judd was confused about that. Don't get me wrong, refereeing in any sport is an extremely tough and thankless job most of the time. I've got full respect for those who take it up, but you still have to do your job properly and consider both parties. In this instance, it was counter productive when the frame was almost over and it could very easily have interfered with Judd's concentration and ability to finish the frame. Whether the right or wrong thing to do, the timing was poor by the referee here.

A good ref is never seen or heard ! This guy is having a bad tournament ! Very hard to upset both players ! But somehow he has, he's probably still pissed about Ronnie telling him to take the shot if he can hit the red ! Must have been playing on his mind !

[Anand-yusg]

What is a sport if you cannot express your human emotions and frustrations? And the way the referee conducted his authority is below the level of a world final, with players who have made the game what it is.

[dwaynejohnson]

In a few years we will be fined for just having emotions.

[onionjohnny]

Its now got to the point where a lot of these refs like to show their authority and think they are just as important as the players . A good ref is hardly noticeable !!

[FromTheCityOfAngels]

In every sport there is emotion, showing emotion is a natural and great thing, it makes it great to watch.I didn't watch snooker for a very long time, then I read a news article about Ronnie was in a finally....wait whut?? 😳 So I had to look up Ronnie on Google, damn this guy is GOAT, no discussion possible, their were great players, White, Higgins(both), Williams, Hendry, Davis, but Ronnie has all their strengths in his arsenal.What a legend! 💪🏼🙏🏼

[ronaldsnooker]

Ref picked on Ronnie intentionally for previous incident where he asked Judd to look at the re-spotted attempt on the red. He shouldn’t get into players head in a crucial moment like this. He acted like an angry man trying to prove a point!

[razashah]

Ronnie didn't shake hands with the referee at the end of the session, am i the only one to notice the revenge moment? 😂😂

[MrGloryglorymanutd]

As a Ronnie O'Sullivan fan watching this I didn't want Judd to miss that yellow because the referee should have said or warned O'Sullivan when the frame was over.

[MikeLisii]

I dont have that big complain against referee as I have to the entire system. I like the quote at thr beggining of the clip it just explains thst the system wants to create robots who dont show any sign of emotion. This now happens in all sports

[JonnyMack]

What a shot from Judd there on the yellow👌 utter perfection ... and I'm getting a bit fkn sick of ref's over-stating their importance. of the time, players keep themselves in line while playing. What they should remember is that these, proffesional ball re-spotters.. need Snooker.. not the other way around.
