    Sky Sports 5 to begin with, probably switch to Sky Sports 1 for the final.

    Peter Wright v MvG final, if the draw allows it.

    It doesn't, the knockout draw for this event is always a bit of a nonsense as it keeps players on a pre-determined side whether they finish 1st or 2nd in group.

    So the semi-finals will definitely be
    1 player from Group A/B v 1 player from Group C/D.
    1 player from Group E/F v 1 player from Group G/H.

    It's like 4 mini tournaments with one winner of each progressing to semi final.

    Love the Grand Slam.

    Awesome day of sport today.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 641 ✭✭✭raiders11


    That Evetts teenager looks a decent enough prospect


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,210 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Danny Noppert with the fancy earring studs. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,982 ✭✭✭Degag


    Adams and MVG now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,629 ✭✭✭ThebitterLemon


    Durrant played very well, could have nicked it

    Don't understand how popular mvg is. Comes accross very badly in interviews.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,864 ✭✭✭statto25


    Lewis beating himself here. Mitchell slowing everything down in between throws. He isn't in camera shot after his throw and Adrian has 2 darts thrown.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,620 ✭✭✭crasy dash


    God Price and Waite's are as bad as each other today..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,045 ✭✭✭✭gramar


    Good game between Nopper and RvB. Excellent finishing.

    Hope ye lumped on this as I have lads. Chris Dobey will be the next 'new' player to win a big TV event.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,996 ✭✭✭✭_Kaiser_


    Looks like Phil is heading home unless something massively unexpected happens here...

    He's already through to the last 16.

    That's what I get missing the start/last few nights ... nevermind :p

    Still, very poor performance!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,210 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Webster lost the run of himself after thrashing Taylor, leaving his darts in the board!

    Great comeback from Brendan Dolan before the break to level the game at 5-5 from 5-1 down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    That was a great match. Fair play to Dolan.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 150 ✭✭Head Wreck


    Did Dolan beat Price?

    Yep 10-9

    Would love to see Jeff Smith knock the Power out tonight.

    Delighted for Dolan. Price did'know what hit him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,544 ✭✭✭h7nlrp2v0g5u48

    Taylor playing well 5-2 up. Smith looks like he will be heading back to the garage he owns In Canada. Smith just took out a nice 152 to make it 7-3 at the break.

    Yeah I can't see Taylor losing from here.

    Wright won 10-3, winning eight straight legs from 3-2 down.

    Barney v Durrant could be a good game later, Durrant is well capable of beating him.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 150 ✭✭Head Wreck


    Dobey looks so calm for someone so inexperienced.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    some of the BDO guys are shooting 180s for fun in this tournament but when they BDO events are on the standard is terrible ???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,629 ✭✭✭ThebitterLemon


    Just about to post that Dobeys head has gone and then Hughes snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Some of Dobeys attempts at the bull were woeful

    Never seen so many darts at doubles/bull being so far away, suppose, was a big step for any of the 2 to get to next round

    Bigger trebles on Unicorn boards. BDO use Winmau.

    Van de Pas throws a dart like he's about to nut someone!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,045 ✭✭✭✭gramar


    Wade limped over the line there in the last leg :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,045 ✭✭✭✭gramar


    Nopper played well against Barney the other day and produced it again tonight giving Anderson a run
    for his money. Looks a very solid player.

    I wonder what were the odds were on the 10-9 win for Gary well played by Danny though pushed Gary all the way.

    Hope barney v Durrant is just as close should be a good one hope Glen does enough to win.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,629 ✭✭✭ThebitterLemon


    Durrant throwing very well, rock solid so far

    TbL


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,269 ✭✭✭alan partridge aha


    Gone a bit of Anderson lately, gone grumpy if things not going his way.

    Also didn't have much positive to say about Nopper, seemed a bit mean spirited!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,629 ✭✭✭ThebitterLemon


    Very impressed with Durrant pegging it back to 5/5, could have easily dropped the head and gotten steamrolled

    Ya my thoughts exactly, I got the feeling that he felt this guy is way beneath him. Gaz is a great player but his attitude towards others leaves a lot to be desired.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,269 ✭✭✭alan partridge aha


    I'd like Duzza to make it through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,620 ✭✭✭crasy dash

    Definitely has the talent to take Barney out if he keeps it up and puts a bit of doubt in rvb head he can do.it.

    Who is The History maker playing next ?
