Tough interview, depression, alcohol issues and thoughts of suicide.

Liked watching him play, and thought he’d go far, scary how badly it went wrong for him.

Had a quick Google but can’t see if he’s playing at all now?

Indeed, extremely talented but tormented by demons, unlikely we’ll see him back on tour again I’d say

Genuinely believed he'd be winning majors if he stayed on tour and committed. What a player. Won Q school on the first day then got to UK open final then vanished. Hes still young hopefully sorts himself out

Sultan of Bling · 22-03-2021 10:28pm

Watched the interview today.

Would love to see him back but I don't know if he has a strong enough mentality.

Even listening to the interview he thinks when he returns he will enjoy instant success.

If it doesn't happen straight away for him, will he lose the head again?

Love him or hate him, darts needs characters like him and Corey is certainly a character.

I wish him well.

Hope he’s his head sorted

Brilliant news. No doubt he will get his card back if he goes

Hopefully, was a great character and looked like a serious prospect.

He’s tried to comeback a few times to no avail.

I’ve tried to see some of his recent results to gauge form but nothing really to go on

TbL

boomdocker · 13-12-2022 5:38pm

That 2018 UK Open where he carved his way through the field was something else

Be interesting to see how he goes and if the old form is still there

Was that the one where they were snowed in (or did Wade win that one)?

Hopefully he’s up for it but the lad has obviously had serious issues that affected his form and previous comebacks have petered out.

Be great to see an in form Cadby back on tour

Yes, that was the one

Kingp35 · 14-12-2022 11:57am

Supposedly he's not in great form, averaging mid 80s at the moment. Made a semi-final and a quarter-final in WDF sanctioned events in Australia.

Personally I don't want him back on the tour, his darting ability does not outweigh his multiple criminal convictions for me.

US3 · 14-12-2022 4:02pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119995090#Comment_119995090

Are his convictions worse than Phil Taylor, Eric Bristow, Gerwen Price, Jelle Klassen, Ted Hankey, Chris Mason, ect ?

I know he had an arrest warrant out for him a few years ago but I could never find what he was wanted for. Not from a legit source anyway just rumors on forums

ThebitterLemon · 14-12-2022 4:55pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119996174#Comment_119996174

I’m pretty sure it was for failing to appear at a court hearing

Yes , I know thats why warrants are issued I just don't know what horrendous crime he commented that King doesn't want to see him on tour

ThebitterLemon · 14-12-2022 8:05pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119996586#Comment_119996586

Wasn’t that for driving with no license?

However I seem to recollect that he was accused of assault a number of times and if he’s got visa issues trying to get into EU/UK that could be an indication of previous convictions

TbL

US3 · 14-12-2022 10:44pm

Wouldn't surprise me if it's assault or something, just can't find anything online. Whatever he done I'd still love to see him back anyway he's class player .

Surprised he's still with Mac elkin after what he said about him last year

Kingp35 · 15-12-2022 11:05am

He has 97 criminal charges against him. He wasn't convicted of all of them but he did serve jail time for breaking into an 83 year olds house and stealing $3,000 dollars from him. He also assaulted someone in a wheelchair and stole their wallet. It's all available online on the Australian Criminal Courts register.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119996174#Comment_119996174

It's worse than some of these but definitely not worse than Taylor, Eccles and Hankey.

I suppose there's an argument to be made that they 'served their time' etc and should be allowed continue their profession but I for one definitely wouldn't be supporting them.

US3 · 15-12-2022 2:51pm

Can you send a link to it? . I've googled for hours and the only place I can find what you said is on gossip forums.

US3 · 15-12-2022 2:56pm

In 2019 his only convictions were for traffic offenses so I find it hard to believe

Jesus if that’s true he should change his nickname to

Corey “The Cad” Cadby 🥹🙈

ThebitterLemon · 15-01-2023 10:14pm

Now that he won his card back, it’ll be interesting to see how he gets on.

He seemed to be hitting decent averages in Q school

TbL

US3 · 07-02-2023 3:56pm

He's after pulling out of the first weekend of Players Championships. Not a good start. Probably visa issues still

Kingp35 · 15-02-2023 11:47am

The entries for Players Championships 3 & 4 and Euro Tour Qualifiers 3 & 4 our out and no sign of Cadby again.

ThebitterLemon · 01-03-2023 7:59pm

is Cadbys criminal record coming back to bite him, seems to be struggling to get a visa

KevIRL · 02-03-2023 8:45pm

On the eve of the UK Open I had forgotten about his run to the final of the mad storm Emma affected UK open of 2018

What a tournament that was, Mikey Mansell played with a hoody and whooly hat on

US3 · 13-03-2023 9:31pm

He's not entered the German pro tour events either. He was able to play Q School there.

confirmed Visa issues for Cadby.

wonder is his criminal record causing his application extra scrutiny

TbL

ThebitterLemon · 20-05-2023 5:38pm

What’s the story with CC haven’t seen his name at all despite winning back his card?

TbL

US3 · 21-05-2023 12:05pm

Can't get a visa, same with perez. Don't understand why he doesn't play the European events though, he played the European Q school

Sultan of Bling · 02-08-2023 8:36pm

Is he entered in any of the events being played down under over the next couple of weeks?

US3 · 02-08-2023 9:05pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120932090#Comment_120932090

Nope. Not sure if tourcard holders are allowed enter regional qualifiers anyway?

ThebitterLemon · 19-11-2023 10:49pm

I’ve googled it but can’t see any news on CC, anyone know the story, it’s bit strange

TbL

US3 · 20-11-2023 10:21am

His card is gone in January anyway, surly they won't allow him enter q school any more. He's not even playing on the Australian circuit so I doubt it's just the visa that's stopping him playing

Dillonb3 · 10-01-2024 8:52pm

Going by Matthew Edgar, Cadby had his tour card revoked for not entering any events

TheChrisD · 10-01-2024 10:41pm

https://www.pdc.tv/news/2024/01/10/31-tour-cards-available-2024-pdc-qualifying-schools

However, the 2024 PDC Order of Merit Rules now includes an amendment to Rule 3.10, which states:

The PDC may remove a Tour Card from any player who does not participate in a ProTour Event during the first 12 months of their Tour Card unless a bona-fide, independently verified medical certificate can be provided.

As such, the Tour Card won by Corey Cadby at the 2023 Qualifying School has now been removed, creating an additional place in this year's event.

US3 · 15-01-2024 11:10pm

Cadby is in prison according to Phil Barrs

Kingp35 · 16-01-2024 3:29pm

I would not be surprised. I am absolutely delighted his tour card was taken off him.

US3 · 16-01-2024 3:35pm

I see he was up in court 3 times before Christmas for assault on 3 members of a family. Think we definitely won't see him on TV again. Pity.

ThebitterLemon · 18-01-2024 10:21pm

Talented player but obviously has issues and doesn’t seem completely stable
