As far as I'm concerned, the match is over and the winner was declared, so it's time to quit "yapping" about it.
Yapp winning, with a foul! Just like Maradona making a goal with his hands :D
- Thread starter smoochie
- Start date
They're thinking the same thing everyone already knows. It was a foul, Gorst would have cleaned up the last three balls with ball in hand, and then he would have been breaking on the hill.

The amount of movement is so small that I’m leaning towards “rocking in a divot.” I think brushing the 9 with the cue, even extremely subtly/slightly, would cause more movement than that.
I'm far from convinced there was contact. There might have been a double cue ball hit but those don't count lol.
I doubt they gaf. It's over. There was a ref, they didn't call it. You can't waste time or energy on that bs. On to the next.
Is the cb froze to the 9?
Yep. Whenever you have human refs there will be bad calls. This will be right up there with the big ones.
Next man up.
what did you bet OP?? get over it.
far from obvious that yapp felt this very miniscule movement

Nope.
I would much rather believe that Yapp didn't feel it.
Was he interviewed on ''his'' shot?
this was only seen with super slo-mo. yapp never felt/saw it and neither did a ref. if you go back and hyper analyze sports over the years you'll find hundreds of instances like this.
If a ball settles in a divot it settles in a different spot, not return to the same location.
I saw it on the highlight reel, slo-mo not needed. There’s rest of your post I agree with
Really? Just how the fk do you know that?
I've watched it a few times and I can't come to a conclusion in my own mind. From some views/videos, it looks like a clear foul, from others it doesn't - depends on the angle, speed of the video that I'm watching etc. It's going to continue to be controversial I'm sure, but it's done, the tournament is over and the title's been awarded - everything else is a moot point.
i just re-watched in and i couldn't see it full speed and barely at 1/2speed. If it moved AY didn't feel it otherwise he'd have called it on himself. Even for a ref to have seen that micro-wiggle he'd have to have had the perfect angle. And perfect vision.
Yapp probably didn't feel it, but the ref should have seen it. Even in our barely HD streaming video you can see it. Direct human vision is way better than that, even better than 4K or 8K. We've all watched similar shots in person. He was either out of position or looking where he shouldn't have been.
