    How do the womens seedings work I wonder ? Winstanley has done nothing of note all year. Has done nothing of note in this tournament in previous years and shes number 1 seed ??

    Robson has lost his head altogether.

    Big robbo loves the 1s and 5s

    Cameron is a tidy player


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,667 ✭✭✭✭Ally Dick


    Robson is a perennial pants pooper

    Cameron averaged just shy of 90 for a finish, felt like he played better than that. Robson was terrible though. Cameron plays mckinstry in next round, will look forward to that one

    Anyone think that Robson was drunk during that match?

    Mason on commentary seemed to be emphasing the risk of 'over practicing' that comes with playing last up in the evening.


    Over practicing is pub league code for being pissed. Lol.

    I saw the first two legs, Robson was really bad. He should be in the women's tournament.

    Also thought the same re Robson being drunk, crazy that a so-called top sportsman could allow it to happen. Even if he's used to playing with a few drinks in him, surely stone cold sober would have been better than that?

    Did they interview him after?

    Look up Martin Atkins getting a massage from Trina Gulliver from a few years back for more BDO "over-practicing"!

    Similar to the mens , whoever has the most time / money / commitment to travel all around Europe gets highest up the rankings.

    It's a one year Order of Merit which doesn't include the previous world championships as far as I know.

    So its based on number of events played rather than the results achieved in those events :)

    Very amateurish....

    There was a photo going around twitter the other day (of Ashton and Suzuki?) with Robson in the background sucking on a pint and atin' a pie!

    She had decent enough results in fairness. This is her record for the year.

    gary robson is not a top sports man - hes a bang average player in the bdo who just there for the piss up
    he wouldnt get near a tour card in q school
    been on last means he was prob on it all day


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭sc86


    the worst thing bar the standard of score in the bdo , is the terrible counting when at a finish

    I did say "so-called" top sportsman!

    An expensive piss-up with a few grand up for grabs in a very winnable match for him.

    His match also didn't start unnaturally late so pure stupidity all round from him.

    Chris Mason mentioned it the other night when he was playing Tony O'Shít.
    Wesley has a lofty opinion of himself.

    Why is the darts split between men and women anyway, i mean i can't see any actual physical advantage for men in the game, so why not abolish the women's world Championship let them qualify on merit and if they can't do it tough luck, it's all about equality these days.
