    What a performance, unbelievable!

    Delighted with that, and what a 140 checkout to win it. Hopefully Cross and MVG are in opposite ends of the draw next year, two best players in the world by a decent margin.

    MVG is going to have to raise his game considerably from now on if Rob Cross keeps these performances up

    Cross is some player.

    That was magical darts in the highest pressure game of all.

    Good that he showed a lot more class after the match than a lot of people on this thread.

    Show respect, get respect as the saying goes. Good riddance to it.

    Amazing by Cross, never seen darts like it before but I think the occasion got to Taylor in the end, taking selfies on the way up and sh1t like that was just that, sh1te

    Toe to toe with MVG....cups his balls of steel in one hand and lands the winning double with the other.

    And then tears Taylor a new one in the final.

    Sensational.

    Hahaha dunno about that. Darts chants have serious legs. They're still doing the yaya/kolo ****.

    Head down and got the job done professionally and with deadly accuracy, cross is lethal all over the board 20s, 19s,18s and 16s it dosnt matter to the guy.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,074 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman

    Last year he was an amateur at home, this year he is world champion, how many other lads will this bring through??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,567 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    I’m actually losing respect for Cross for this crap. Taylor was trying to wind him up for the entirety of that match, don’t let him hold the bloody trophy!


  • Posts: 24,286 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Magnificent from Cross. Absolutely sublime stuff. He 'Taylored' Taylor.
    An ice cool gent too.

    Fair play to Mickey Flanagan for lending Rob his voice
