Premier League Darts 2018

Delighted to see Whitlock is a bit of winning form

JenovaProject · 15-02-2018 11:21pm

Who would have thunk it..Smith and Whitlock unbeaten after 3 weeks.
They play each other next week..probably be a draw.

Carpentry · 16-02-2018 11:28am

Gary vs MvG was one of the best (and quickest) darts matches I have seen in years

sc86 · 16-02-2018 12:34pm

alot buying into the sky hype about it been 1 of the premier league classics
it will go alongside the other 863 premier league match they called classics so

it was a 10 leg game which was great to watch yes , same as about 5 or 6 players championship games each day last weeknd in wigan

In fairness I didn't see those matches in Wigan on the telly and just enjoyed the Ando v MVG game for what it was.
I defo don't need Sky to tell me I saw a cracking game but I do need Sky to put that game on tv for me to watch.

EPAndlee · 22-02-2018 9:27pm

Kinda hoping Gurney gets hammered here

statto25 · 22-02-2018 10:04pm

Jaysus can they not do something better for Cross walk-on? One week it was one of those static electric ball yokes... Now we have big ben chiming in the background.

Ultimate Seduction · 22-02-2018 10:59pm

Has that back injury flared up again....

ThebitterLemon · 22-02-2018 11:04pm

**** night of darts.

RVB looked liked he didn't give a toss.

Whole thing is boring as fcuk!

paulie21 · 22-02-2018 11:14pm

Ando/Wright was a cracking game. Others were meh alright

raiders11 · 23-02-2018 2:53am

Shows how bad it is, when first game tonight had the 2 lads with 100% records, was brutal game, Whitlock was nearly an inch off some of his throws for trebles n doubles..

Poor Gary Anderson brings out the best in everyone, his games are the only exciting thing about the premier league at the moment..

paulie21 · 01-03-2018 11:53am

Talks of it been postponed tonight due to the weather. Don’t know how they’d reschedule it but safety of fans has to be the primary concern

Ultimate Seduction · 01-03-2018 12:03pm

Fcuk the fans I wanted to watch the darts with a few beers while everyone is raving about snowstorms.

paulie21 · 01-03-2018 1:23pm

Officially called off

Ultimate Seduction · 02-03-2018 11:51am

Interesting to find out how they are going to reschedule this with relegation night only a few weeks away. Is the UK open still going ahead??

They're saying it is anyway.

I wonder for the PL will they play a double night or maybe over two nights to make back for missing week 5.

ArmaniJeanss · 02-03-2018 12:11pm

Can't see them being able to or wanting to organise a new night/venue/ticket sales at such short notice.
Reckon they'll just have 6.30 starts over the next 3 Thursday nights to make up the 5 missed games. Two nights of 7 games and one night of 6, then it'll all back on track for Week 9.

Staying at 5 games per night up until "Judgement Night" now moved to Liverpool.

I guess the extra games per night will kick in after that.

How can they play them after judgement night? I read the article but still confused as to when the extra 5 will be played

Degag · 05-03-2018 9:17pm

My take from the article is that they'll play 10 games on Judgement Night.

paulie21 · 05-03-2018 9:20pm

It means judgement night has been pushed back a week to Liverpool where no games were scheduled for until after relegation. The Exeter games will be played in Liverpool and they'll announce plans for after that is all sorted

peteeeed · 06-03-2018 8:14pm

Extra night at Rotterdam

paulie21 · 06-03-2018 8:23pm

Poor form not to play it in Exeter

boomdocker · 06-03-2018 8:51pm

Rotterdam, not Rotherham

Don't think the venue was availble but they could have tried to find somewhere reasonably close.

paulie21 · 08-03-2018 8:44pm

Whitlock really should of got a least a draw there

paulie21 · 08-03-2018 9:22pm

Pity Barney didn’t turn around and roar in Prices face after that bull

i think he knew that in terms of quality it just wasn't a good game . both poor

Carpentry · 09-03-2018 11:04am

I think only Mensur wast throwing decent darts last night, rest really poor. I was expecting Gary to trash Gurney after UK Open final, but it didn't happen.

Kingp35 · 09-03-2018 12:50pm

You can tell by the lack of posts in this thread just how uninteresting the Premier League is.

boomdocker · 09-03-2018 2:13pm

Yeah, was fairly un-entertaining - although Mensur played some great stuff against Sour Puss Wright

There's a lad on Twitter does some great stat analysis if you're into that sort of thing - apparently Mensur threw 70 consecutive darts at treble 20 without hitting a 1, T1 5 or T5

It seems to get worse every year. Usually I watch it untill around now when the evenings get brighter, but I literally haven't watched 1 game this year. Roll on the finals night

sc86 · 09-03-2018 2:30pm

i wonder what viewing figures are like
its the only darts on tv i dont want to watch

Ultimate Seduction · 09-03-2018 5:01pm

Hard to get accurate viewing figures these days, more people watch illegally than subscribed to sky I'd say. Poor viewing figures on sky anyway 100k most I'd say

It's a crap, glorified exhibition. Players seem uninterested and it's gone completely stale.

I'll only watch it if I stumble across it whereas I watched all of the UK Open last weekend.

I've more interest in the players championship in Barnsley this weekend

raiders11 · 10-03-2018 7:52pm

Premier League is now definitely boring, MVG, Anderson and to a lesser extent Cross, playing each other is the only games I might tune in to watch.

Maybe, some kind of a change in the format could help.

Ultimate Seduction · 15-03-2018 2:28pm

Trebles for show as they say

boomdocker · 15-03-2018 9:10pm

Some man for the stats, that lad - been following him on Twitter

raiders11 · 15-03-2018 11:10pm

Missed the Smith v Wright game but for the games I seen, was definitely one of the better nights so far.

Gurney v Whitlock was a decent game but let himself(Gurney) down at the end again with the crowd.

peteeeed · 16-03-2018 9:22am

yeah guerney seems to create a siege mentality in his head , not sure thats good in the long run

boomdocker · 16-03-2018 11:39am

Seems to be quite a bit of 'luck of the draw' in this format - Michael Smith racked up 6 handy points in the first three rounds beating people out of form (sub 90 Ave), whereas others , maybe like Gerwyn Price seem to keep meeting players when they are in form

Suppose it levels itself out after a while

Ultimate Seduction · 22-03-2018 10:22pm

Still haven't managed to watch more than 10 minutes of it this year. Going by the thread, no one else watching it either..

Im watching it in between the evening racing at Chelmsford...pretty brutal fare...Snakebite is gone to the dogs just like this whole premier league.

jeff bingham · 22-03-2018 10:27pm

Watching it myself. Anderson and Whitlock was a decent match scoring wise but Whitlock didn't really threaten I thought.
Barney saying there he didn't think Wright will turn up next week. Got another hammering tonight

I reckon him seeing cross coming out of nowhere and winning everything, while he's grafting for years and can't do much, has really ruined his confidence. Could be the Gaul stones too but that last last November

They reckon he lost a good bit of weight from it and his stance is different but like you said that was November should been sorted by now.
Keeps changing darts every week too.

In fairness he's always been changing his darts and it never effected him. Sad to see anyway because I think he deserved a big tittle, at least the premier league last year. If MvG wasn't around snakebite would have dominated darts for 2 or 3, years mad

I know he won the UK open but is that even a big one any more I don't know.
