DomDom Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Anderson's doubling CAN be good, but he doesn't play well over a tournament like some do. His inconsistancy goes from match to match. Look at his match against MaGowan. He was superb and constantly opened with doubles and 160 scores and finished the matches well too. His doubles ARE better. They'll get better and better, so I'm not THAT sure about dismissing him yet. He does seem to have a lack of nerve in big occaisions though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowden til i die Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 He is still not even remotely close to the player he was when he beat Taylor in the best final of all time a couple of years back.Fortunate to get past Tabern in the first round and Newton will give him a game tonight. For me he will get to the semi's at best and looks something of a spent force. Lacks the mentality and the toys go out the pram when he playing poorly. Hes a player i really like and have done since he was on the BDO. He is tremendous in some legs but falls away completely in others, looks uninterested and throws darts without any effort. Bags of ability but huge mental problems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True who else would square up to adrian lewis ! Tonight should be good.I think king will beat andy hamilton.Barney v newton could go all the way.I hope painter beats priestley.And the crowd will be right behind jacko barry for the final match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Finally get to enjoy a full night of darts for the first time this week - hopefully it doesn't disappoint. Priestley vs Painter should be belting, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Hamilton takes the first set 3-1 and is looking very good at the moment. Merv is in for a long night... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) Merv seems really unsure of himself tonight - it doesn't help that Hamilton is getting back to his form of a couple of years ago. Hamilton on the verge of a comfortable 3-0 win here... ...which is exactly what happens. Hamilton won't have a more comfortable night at the oche this year.

The Naitch Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) Lovely 141 checkout from Wes Newton to take the lead in the 2nd set against Barney. He follows that up in the next leg with a stunning 12 darter to break the throw. Brilliant stuff. Newton takes the set 3-0 and is back level with Barney. This could turn into a cracker if Newton keeps this form up. Edited October 8, 2009 by The Naitch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Shocking order from the crowd in that third set decider. You half expect it at the PL but not at the Grand Prix. Newton is playing pretty well but that could be a major blow for him to come back now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it was really poor form from the crowd - hoping that Newton wins just to get it right up them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Ahh, frustrating final leg for Newton - took a while to get going, but when he did Barney was already on his way to victory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Wow, what a bloody fantastic 125 (bull, 25, bull) finish from Priestley - how did he get it in there?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 On another note is anyone going to the Jocky Wilson cup ? Not got tickets yet myself but I'm presuming they are not sold out? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I was gonna go to the Jocky Wilson Cup, but with money tight and Sky announcing they're showing it, I won't bother. I loved that 125. It was a true "WHAT THE f**k ?!?!" moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I predict that the crowd will spontaeneously combust at some point during that match. As long as the morons from last night's crowd aren't there though, it should be a good night of darts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
