    Duzza is better version of Wade. Solid but not spectacular. I expect him to go on and win this.

    Christ this is dire. I'd give up watching except the last time I did that Wade staged a brilliant comeback. He's been absolute toss.

    That last leg was torture.
    It's like an exhibition with 2 old players.

    I wonder is this format the reason for Durant and he could struggle in other ones like the grand prix or the worlds ???

    Not taking anything any from him excellent darts this competition from him

    Wade really is a surly yoke happy Durrant won he seems a nice guy but probably wouldn't be rooting for him against the likes of wright or cross.

    Totally agree. While darts isn't exactly a sport played by the elite, I think all viewers can identify with the honest nature of Duzza. We're all Duzza, and I'll cry if he wins it.

    I think he's on course for rank 35.

    Duzza comes across as someone who now realises how good he actually is.. Fair enough you don't win 3 World titles been a bad thrower regardless of the organisation you throw for. But i think he went through a period over the last 4 years wondering if he was good enough for the PDC and I think he knows now that he really is.. It's a pity he didn't make the move over sooner

    Serious fight back from Bunting. 9-4 down to 10-10. You have to give him huge credit.

    He'll choke at the end. Too many scores under 60. He cant cope when hit with a barrage of 140s

    Fair play to Bunting whatever happens he’s played really well. Nice if he wins but better for tournament if Cross wins it

    Hopefully Bunting will take heart from that performance and get back to playing decent darts again. Unlucky lad.

    Another fantastic match.

    Really has been a great tournament so far. Best I’ve seen in a long time.

    Who's place will Duzza take in the Premier league next year? Suljovic?

    Wright's up to his old tricks. Like Bunting. Gets too nervous when it counts

    Great match alright. Mad to think that Wright was 1-3 with the bookies before the match. A great nights entertainment.

    Wright was brilliant and awful, he struggled to finish many out shots between 50-100 and Gurney seemed to excel on them and picked him off.
