ScouseFox Posted 15 November 2012 Posted 15 November 2012 This could be special. Power vs MvG. Just started. No idea who'll win.
ScouseFox Posted 15 November 2012 Posted 15 November 2012 Mighty Mike is playing out of his skin here. So is Taylor, mind. High, high quality. Both averaging over 105 and rarely missing doubles. MvG 6-4 up at the break, even The Power can't cope with his scoring!
Number 6 Posted 15 November 2012 Posted 15 November 2012 What a match thus far! Glad I bet on MvG at the start!
ScouseFox Posted 15 November 2012 Posted 15 November 2012 Cracking 130 checkout from MvG. Two breaks up now. Holds here and goes 8-4 up! Taylor looks beaten.
ScouseFox Posted 15 November 2012 Posted 15 November 2012 The kid's got unreal talent. He just took Taylor to pieces. And Taylor played very well himself.
ScouseFox Posted 16 November 2012 Posted 16 November 2012 More unbelievable darts so far tonight. Wes Newton came back from the dead with a 164 to go 9-9 and throwing but lost 10-9! Crackin' stuff.
I am Rod Hull Posted 16 November 2012 Posted 16 November 2012 More unbelievable darts so far tonight. Wes Newton came back from the dead with a 164 to go 9-9 and throwing but lost 10-9! Crackin' stuff. Cracking game. Had a few bob on Kist when he was 2-1 down @5/2
kingfox Posted 16 November 2012 Posted 16 November 2012 Was gonna do an accumulator, with wins for Part, Kist, Anderson and Barney, luckily I didn't now. But knew Anderson v Hamilton was probably the one, which most likely could of gone anyway.
ScouseFox Posted 16 November 2012 Posted 16 November 2012 Barney was on top form today. Playing like that he could be a contender in this. MvG clearly the favourite going into the quarters but I wouldn't like to call it. Gonna be some great stuff over the weekend.
BoneDog Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Not seen Barney play this well for ages. I nearly backed Hamilton with invisible cash on t'internet an hour ago. Lucky escape.
kingfox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Think if you asked any Darts fans watching today, despite two Englishman in the Semis, fans would simply say they want a Barney v MVG final. We have one of the two in the final already, and the way Van Gerwen is playing he should wipe the floor with Winstanley, even though I really like Winstanley he is just not good enough. Would be nice to see Barney win the tournament, but will have to go with MVG absolute joy to watch.
ScouseFox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Mental standard. MvG nearly got a 9 darter, Barney's had 2 ton plus finishes in 5 legs and breaks to go 3-2 up at the break. Barney looks well up for it.
BoneDog Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Shit hot darts. The first session was amazing.
ScouseFox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Mighty Mike hits his 4th 170 finish in the last 24 hours! Right back in it.
ScouseFox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Then again! Barney takes out 95 like a king, breaks back. Then goes and gets a 110 and is 14-11 up. Huge stuff. BARNEY ARMY
BoneDog Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Great darts from Barney in the final. He kept it up all the way. Happy for Barney. It was pretty emotional at the end there. Gorra lorra love for that man! His semi and final performances were excellent. Lost my betting stack on this match though so am feeling a bit like this : Flippin Dev. Gerwen didn't play as well as he has throughout the tournament - about 8 times he started a leg with under 60 - but Barney was on top form. Hopefully Barney keeps up this form for the world championship and into next year.
kingfox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Cracking final just what we wanted. Really good to see Barney playing well again, MVG gave it his all but he will be back, shoe in for the latter rounds of the World Championships. World Championships should be a cracker, the likes of Lewis, Whitlock and Jenkins should play much better than they did at the Grand Slam, the likes of Pipe and Chisnall who we didn't see this week will be dangerous. Cannot wait.
stix Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 According to sky sports, Hankey suffered a mini stroke during his demolition by MvG the other week. Out of action for the forseeable future.
cambridgefox Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 I thought he was having a stroke at one point. He was,thought of becoming a doctor?
kingfox Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 According to sky sports, Hankey suffered a mini stroke during his demolition by MvG the other week. Out of action for the forseeable future. Very interesting that, no World Championships for him then. 4-5 seeds need to be announced, while another nine qualifiers need to be decided. Looking at the rankings and money, it seems some good names won't qualify this year, like Jelle Klaasen, Mark Dudbridge and Roland Scholten.
cambridgefox Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 According to sky sports, Hankey suffered a mini stroke during his demolition by MvG the other week. Out of action for the forseeable future. good luck to him,I like him,certainly a character .
BoneDog Posted 20 November 2012 Posted 20 November 2012 Hope Hankey's back to darts soon. Man I feel bad for laughing at the action that night. Really didn't think there was owt wrong with him, I thought it was just frustration or nerves getting to him.
