Aaargh, that's disappointing. Can't blame Hunt though.

Degag · 16-12-2020 08:56PM

Have to think that if the crowd was there it may have gone the other way.

Deeper Blue · 16-12-2020 09:03PM

Ashton was excellent in fairness, she'd have beaten a lot of other players

Degag · 16-12-2020 09:12PM

Thoughts on this one? I have Portela in the last leg of my accy. Think it might be close but that he'll probably lose out so will be keeping an eye on the cash out.

durrant win 3-0 or 3-1

Not a fan of Durrant I must say

ThebitterLemon · 16-12-2020 09:32PM

Durrant won’t last long in this competition

I’d say most would fancy their chances in his current form

Very bad game this, Durrant throwing Muck, Portela confidence gone. No idea what Durrant is at leaving his darts in the board

mdwexford · 16-12-2020 09:44PM

12 matches so far.

2 players have averaged over 95. Both in same match, Dobey and Smith.

Meanwhile 12 have averaged in the 80s.

Slow start to say the least.

Durrant i feel is a player who really feeds off the crowd. Think he may suffer more than most with the no-fan situation

Dillonb3 · 16-12-2020 09:59PM

At least we got Jose to look forward to tomorrow night

I've watched every game so far.

Considering some of the darts I've seen I'm amazed that nobody has averaged in the 70s.

ThebitterLemon · 16-12-2020 10:07PM

Did I dream it or did Glen not get a shot at a double with 3 darts and 41 left!!!

Portela just dipped to 79.63 in the end!!

We have had an 80.48 and an 81.03 also.

Still has an uncanny knack of nailing it after he's made the cock up
Could be a great game , Ross Smith is well able to play when his game is on, beat Nathan Aspinall at the Players Champs Finals a few weeks ago in a high quality affair

Dave Clark is such a loss, he was a great host

Laura Woods and the other blone hosts are not a bad thing but any means

:D

I think Laura is very good, knowledgeable bout the darts and not afraid to crack jokes and take the piss out of the other commentators/players.

I have to agree that the standard has been poor so far but I reckon it's a combination of there being no crowd and the nerves of a World Championships. It will definitely pick up.

The Durrant Portela match last night was torture, both were terrible, anyone else would have beaten Duzza.

i think it's basically the standard gap between the tour card holders and the qualifiers is getting bigger

The regular tour players eg Rydz, Razma, Smith , Hopp etc.. have all won without playing great against very average qualifers

Looks like I spoke too soon looking at this Foulkes fella .... playing out of his skin

Kingp35 · 17-12-2020 01:53PM

Great win for Foulkes, really good performance from him. Completely unexpected.

I hope Ilagan the nutjob gets through the next one!

bassy · 17-12-2020 02:02PM

What ye think of the boxer commentator on the darts I cannot think of he's name.
He's probably just In For the early rounds of darts.

If ye listened to him in the darts and closed your eyes you would swear it was a boxing match lol.

Well I can say thinking it's an F1 race definitely doesn't happen when Crofty is commentating!

Kingp35 · 17-12-2020 02:44PM

Good game this. Ilagan just missed a dart to 2-1 up in sets, Murray then checks out to take the set and lead 2-1.

There's never a dull moment watching Ilagan

TheChrisD · 17-12-2020 03:02PM

Time for the crucial battle between North and South.

Kingp35 · 17-12-2020 03:16PM

Bad news for Willie as it looks as if Gurney has regained his form as he takes the first set 3-1 with a 101 avg.

boomdocker · 17-12-2020 03:26PM

Jaysus, picked some day to get back to the form he's shown no sign of for 6 months....

PTH2009 · 17-12-2020 03:33PM

Gurney has a head for smacking

Was O Connor the last Irish (Republic of Ireland) player left ?

boomdocker · 17-12-2020 03:37PM

Not over yet....

PTH2009 · 17-12-2020 03:37PM

Talked too soon

Come on O Connor
