DomDom Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I'm not sure that was a miscount there. I think Lewis has seen that Ovens was a fair bit behind and decided to just put the next dart in the same treble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davis Love III Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Brilliant tactics from The Heat. Throwing rubbish, and wincing after every dart, lulling moobs into a false sense of security, before unleashing a barrage of top form and getting the job done. Just like a slow cooker.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davis Love III Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Ovens is the spitting image of a guy who drinks in my local. I will try and get a picture next time he is in He must have a twin that sits near me at McDiarmid Park. As it happens, there's also a guy that looks like Rowan Atkinson, a woman that looks like Deirdre Barlow, and Uncle Fester from the Addams Family, on my row too. Funnily enough, it's been seven years since I was last at the opticians... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F_T_Y Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 As much as i agree that he is the world champ and should be putting down a marker,you feel lewis has a few extra gears to go up if he needed to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davis Love III Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I do love the way Ovens shuffles along the oche after each dart. There's probably some sort of Gangnam Style dance routine that could be devised from it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I'd agree with that FTY. Which is why I want him through this round. I wanna see someone really push Lewis to get that out of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 That's much better from Lewis in that set. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 A wee break of throw for Ovens, that'll give him a bit of hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meanmistermustard Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Were the crowd singing "boring boring tempo"? Certainly sounded like it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Were the crowd singing "boring boring tempo"? Certainly sounded like it. "Boring, boring tables'' most likely. The chant itself is ''boring, boring''. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davis Love III Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I've just been told that my hair is incredibly similar to The Heat's. (A glance towards the mirror has since confirmed that fact). That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 113 from Denis to save the match. He's not for giving up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Ovens pushed Lewis in those last two sets but not enough to really get back into it. Lewis vs Painter in the last 16... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I do like a bit of the showmanship and getting the crowd involved so not got much against Rand. At least he's trying. Darts hasn't become really popular and filled with money because it's a great sport. You need to give the fans something besides that. Just watch any of the games so far, the crowd are vocal but that's because they're chanting at each other not actually anything that is happening on the stage. I'm sure they'll change once we get down to the nitty gritty. Very open tournament this year though, several guys in with a chance. No one has really played well enough to make you say they're a favourite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it comes through every time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) I do like a bit of the showmanship and getting the crowd involved so not got much against Rand. At least he's trying. You can do that and not come over as an absolute tool, which Rand is. Edited December 23, 2012 by The Naitch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Was Lewis using his old Unicorn darts? Which made no difference by the looks of it. The sign of desperation I think he knows when he plays anyone decent he's out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
