For feck's sake. Heard about the heart attack, but really hoped she would get through it.

RIP Carrie Fisher.

THANK YOU!

And Carrie Fisher...what a shame. Richard Adams (guy who did Watership Down) just went as well.

Apparently Carrie Fisher had all her scenes for Episode 8 all done and will "have a major role in Episode 8" as for Episode 9, that I'd imagine will be a CGI job..

Reyes was fantastic yesterday but MVG is such a cool customer. The fans completely turned on him and he still keeps him at arms length. Really fun match.

Might be a bit morbid and crappy to say (as if it's a game of death top trumps) but given that so many huge celebs have passed this year the wrestling community haven't had it as bad as usual. It's an unfortunate part of the business.

There were only a handful of deaths. Chyna, Balls Mahoney and Axel Rotten were the only ones that died before their time.

Late on this but hope you had a good Christmas. 2016 is nearly over which is also cause for celebration.

Hope everyone here has a good Christmas and will have a good new year. It's been a tough year and even though I'm not a regular poster I'm always here and being a PW boards member has grounded me and helped me along so thanks everyone

JP Liz V1

Whoops :pac:

Really don't get all this 2016 was a terrible year talk! Ireland were savage in the European Championships, us here on PW Boards had a great time with Styles, Nakamura and the CWC. Made lots of cool new friends too. I've had a great year personally. Also, I'm after being whisked away to Brusells for my bday today it's been real 2016 , onto the next chapter.

Happy Birthday and enjoy Brussels.

ERG89

Standard at the darts is so much higher than even 5 years ago. Barneveld blown out of the water with 109 average & around 70% on his finishing.
Van Gerwen vs Anderson could be something else if both deliver.

ERG89

Going to miss the darts now, the standard nearly more than the games is the real memory of this tournament. Gary Anderson threw some darts but after the third set it was impossible to keep up especially against throw. Last night and tonight it was a shock if they threw a 60, performance has moved on so far from the Peter Manley & Wayne Mardle days not so long ago.

Loughc

Great tournament again this year. The standard is unreal. MVG had some serious form in 2016.

Lithium93_

Shame about the drunken idiot going up on stage.

diusmr8a504cvk

Only saw four legs in total but Van Gerwen was stellar tonight. Anderson's finishing really let him down.

Lithium93_

Anderson did fight back towards the end, but it was a case of "Too little, too late". Then again no shame in loosing to Van Gerwen, who if I heard Wayne Mardle say correctly is a million pounds ahead of Anderson in the Darts Order Of Merit.

PTH2009

Great win for MVG and he's only 27 so plenty more years left for him

Think we may have seen the end of the glory days for the older players such Barney, Phil Taylor etc. Anderson will be challenge again so will the likes of Adrian Lewis, Peter Wright, James Wade, Klassen. That Cadby guy could be very good in a few years and a few younger guys will enter the scene

Masters up next the end of January before the premier league kicks off and comes to Dublin on the 6th April (went in 2014 and 2016 and it was a very good night). Went twice to the Gran Prix in the citywest but prefer the Premier League
