With snooker, having three months off could have a huge long-term effect on your game. It's not like football, where there's a huge margin of error with touch and passing and shooting.

Before I play matches I'm always switching myself on. That's why I have that walk-on music - Two Steps From Hell - they produce really good motivational gladiator-style music. As soon as that music comes on I'm switched on and I'm ready for a brawl!

Neil Robertson

Music Motivational Good

League of Legends' is banned in my house and rightly so. It is just awful. In the past, I've been staying up and playing it. Then all of a sudden, it is 6 A.M., the birds are tweeting and I'm thinking: 'Oh my God, I've got to get up in a couple of hours to take my son Alexander to school. Then I've got to practise.'

I was heavily addicted to a game called 'Diablo II.'

Now I've won everything in the game I'm just trying to repeat the success.

Neil Robertson

Success Yin Won

Players thump their cue on the floor when the opponent is coming to the table, or at the table. And the referees need to show some more authority on this stuff. You don't see it so much with top players or on TV tables - they know they can't get away with it.

There are lot of tournaments and it's hard when you have a young family.

Becoming a dad has been a big change for me - I didn't have any responsibilities before. I obviously practised every day, but there was that luxury of things like watching movies when I wanted or waking up whenever I wanted.

Neil Robertson

Movies Change Whenever

If you're playing a shot and your peripheral vision picks up a player moving as you play the shot, if your vision goes from the object ball to what they're doing, you can miss the shot by several inches.

I have all the gym kit set up in my house but I am too lazy to get up really early in the morning to do it myself.

We have to show zero tolerance on match and frame-fixing. There is no other option than a life ban.

Neil Robertson

Life Zero Tolerance

There's no specific reason for it, sometimes results just go against you and your opponents play too well.

Neil Robertson

Time Your You

It is greed or financial difficulty that makes people fix matches, not gaining an edge over rivals, so it is different from say Lance Armstrong or Ben Johnson.

You look at the guys who are winning tournaments , Ronnie, Ding, Mark Selby, Marco Fu - none of them are overweight, they are the slimmer guys on tour.

The crowd in big venues can really make or crush players.

It's very frustrating when you don't always get the right kind of rub - you watch tennis and know if you play better than the other guy, you win. But that's the game we play. It can create mini-upsets.

I have to motivate myself every season now to win things I've already won just to build my own legacy and try to end my career as high up as I possibly can.

I've been watching Arnold Schwarzenegger. There's a couple of hour-long videos and he's made some amazing speeches. You look at what he's done in his career and it's such an inspiration with where he started. He's got these six rules of success which I listen to quite a lot and it really motivates me.

The players who don't look after themselves physically and mentally and enjoy the nights out a bit too much will suffer, the sport is a lot more professional now.

Men Will Who

When I first came to England I hated football and knew nothing about it. Watching 0-0s and 1-0s having come from Aussie Rules was just dull. The only player I had heard of was David Beckham. But when I was living in Leicester I started watching Match of the Day and really got into Chelsea.

Neil Robertson

I fell off the tour when I was younger and had to go back home and practise harder and get better.

Neil Robertson

The Worlds was great, Masters was great, but that was sort of mission accomplished with the Triple Crown.

Neil Robertson

Not many players have tables at home, they like going to a club and feeling like they're going to a place of work.

Neil Robertson

It used to be that a lot of the ranking tournaments were in Britain so British players could just drive an hour up the road and be there. I've had to travel from the other side of the world to play and live in the U.K.

Neil Robertson

As long as your eyes aren't going, or you've got some back or neck problems, then you can play this game as long as you're motivated to practise.

Neil Robertson

I used to be very lazy in my teens. I didn't practise enough but I was OK when I started really getting into snooker.

Neil Robertson

I have developed a nasty habit of losing to the guy who wins the tournament, and that alone makes you think what you could have achieved.

Neil Robertson

There are a lot of players who fiddle around with their towel in your shot or they get up out of their chair to see if a ball's on when you're about to play your shot.

Neil Robertson

I have tried to be that player who plays within himself, but I just can't do that.

Neil Robertson

I've tried to play within myself but I need adrenaline and need to be pumped up to play well otherwise you will see snoring snooker like that.

Neil Robertson

Being world No 1 would be fantastic but you'd like to do it by finishing the year as No 1 without anything happening off the table to someone else's ranking.

Neil Robertson

When I was 16 I had a table at home in Melbourne and I hardly ever practised.

Neil Robertson

I have always tried to play the right way, and I honestly believe for the most part the etiquette in snooker is very good. So when there are breaches, and there are, it stands out.

Neil Robertson

I absolutely love my cricket. I would watch it six, seven hours a day when Australia were playing. I grew up in a very spoilt era of Shane Warne, Adam Gilchrist, Glenn McGrath, Brett Lee, Ricky Ponting and others.

Neil Robertson

I just play my game. I know if I play well I will win.

Neil Robertson

When you watch Barcelona play you want to see Lionel Messi score two goals. If he hasn't after 80 minutes you can perhaps get restless.

Neil Robertson

There needs to be a flat rule where if someone's playing a shot you sit in the chair, and probably more referees need to be a bit sterner with how they apply that rule.

Neil Robertson

I love the history of the sport and I want to keep keep building my history as a player with more records.

Neil Robertson

Lifting a major trophy in front of an empty stadium would be a very strange feeling. But then you'd rather do that than not play at all.

Neil Robertson

I always knew I could win tournaments in the U.K. but there was a question mark over whether I could deal with playing in China.

Neil Robertson

I almost wrote my career off. I wasn't quite good enough and I thought that ship had sailed. But I carried on, won the World Under-21 Championship in 2003 and got the tour card.

Neil Robertson

If you are a single guy and work in a normal job you can get around it. But you can't win professional snooker matches when you are tired.

Neil Robertson

The years I had the 100 centuries, I should probably have had around 120 because I got addicted like hell to 'Fifa 14.'

Neil Robertson

I wouldn't say I would have won a lot more tournaments if it wasn't for video games but I think I would have given myself more opportunities to go further in other events.

Health comes first before any bonus on offer.

I took coronavirus very seriously.

John Higgins is an absolute legend. He has such a good reputation.

Neil Robertson

I'm a pretty laid-back person but when I first played on TV against Jimmy White at the Masters it was daunting. The more times you play you get used to it and you eventually come to love it.
