    I didn't see the second game but VVDV threw a dart underarm and got called on it apparently? But Part said it happened early in the match so shouldn't have affected him.

    Gotta feel for Smith, kept fighting, I’m sure he’ll win a big one soon.

    Entertaining game that, thought Smith was going to melt after Anderson had a 5 leg lead but he kept fighting to the end

    How cringy is that VdB walk on dance especially to an empty hall :(

    If Smith has Durrant’s mental strength and clutch dart ability he’d never be beaten :)

    Fair play Van Der Berg, he has the slower deliberate throw to have a potentially good career in PDC

    I think Dimitri could beat Anderson, wouldn't have fancied Durrant at all.

    Has Taylor been on at all? Thought he was meant to be part of the Sky team

    Mardle conspicuous by his absence too.

    Neither of the above are complaints btw

    Mardle's mother is very ill that's why he's not there

    Feeling this will be a very lopsided final, hope not.

    Hope VdB wins it. Used to love Anderson but in recent years he’s turned into a moaney windbag

    That 170 from VdB was pure class

    VDB going to win. Anderson miles off the pace no 180s in 20 legs

    Did I back him though? Of course not!

    Delighted for Dimitri, be interesting to see where he goes from here

    Dvdb was very solid all week and deserved the win.

    Anderson was very poor tonight and not at his best during the tournament.

    Great to have darts back on tv. Roll on the next one.

    Disappointing final but I enjoyed the week.

    Great production and I thought the crowd noises were very well timed and added to the perception of it being before a live audience

    dimitri is incredibly fortunate that he will go down in history as a matchplay champion when in reality it wasn't really the matchplay. Glorified floor event .
