Surly they can’t pick RVB for the premier League after that performance
Darts
- Thread starter StuCol
- Start date
No wouldn't think so was woeful start to finish.
Also down to world number 26, at this rate he won’t even make next years world championship
I've always found something about RvB a bit unlikeable so I was quite happy to see him dumped out last night.
I thought Labanauskas played very well under the circumstances i.e. no one in the Ally Pally was supporting him. Still, they'll be dancing on the streets of Vilnius!
2 big shocks so far with Wright and now RvB going out (although I don't think the second one was anywhere near as big as the first) but I still think the rest of the real big guns will get to the business end of the tournament.

It's actually quite a sad read.
Surprise of the 1st round so far, Asada coming down from 2-0 down to beat Ratajski
Whitlock out now as well, who wants the final premier league place
No Wade behind too. Get Kim back in.
I like Chizzy but he will need to beat Kim and likely Gurney to have a chance to be selected I believe, even maybe De Zwaan as a wildcard but that can do more bad then good for a younger player.
Why is Wade being such a knob all of a sudden
I don't really care for Chizzy tbh. He's a good player on his day, but he's a bottler and his interviews are painful, given his IQ is in single figures.
Nearly as high as Adrian Lewis
Wade didn't even thank the opponent. What a twat.
"My son is 10 weeks old an he texted me, he's very advanced, and he said dad don't lose" Wade says with a Trump-like smirk like he was being hilarious.
And said I wanted to hurt my opponent. What was that all about, Asada just played the board and did nothing to deserve what Wade did
That was one of the weirdest post-match interviews I have ever seen a Darts player do.
Repeating about his 10 week old son and that he was doing it for his country? Borderline xenophobic that...

What a smart son Wade has! Texting at 10 weeks?!?!
At least in his day he was in some of the best ever televised matches. I'm sure him v Gary Anderson in the final and him v Taylor in some late stage match both smashed records for most 180s etc...
wtf, missed the post match interview.I don't want to be too harsh because I know Wade has struggled with mental health issues but regardless, what a strange man he is. That interview was an absolute train wreck.
I could understand a bit more if he'd just played Price or Gurney i.e. players that take delight in getting under your skin but Asada was just up there chucking darts, I bet Wade hardly knows and has rarely even played the guy.
To come out and make comments like that afterwards, well I hope Barry Hearn has a quiet word in his ear. I'm not talking bans or anything like that but he needs telling he shouldn't be doing that.

Wade is disliked by a huge amount of the tour players. Even allowing for his condition he has always been known as super arrogant.
That explains it, but certainly doesn’t excuse it
Nobody can see to hold their throw tonight, breaks galore

Easy - King can't hit a double for love nor money
Yea, don't care for him at all. In the pre-match video he talked about having grown up and not having much of a temper anymore. Mate, you're 35 and you're a dad. You're not a 24 year old just starting to getting the grasp of adulthood.
Yea, that's what I meant when I said he gave a Trump-like smirk. He really thought he was being funny saying that.
The darts fans misunderstand the Viking clap.
Can’t remember a championship where so many players have been pulled back from 2-0 up, Ian White fecked up big time, how many darts did he miss in a row at tops, yet when he had 56 left went 16 and obviously missed both darts at tops, braindead darts
Mvg and Anderson must be loving the way it's going. Probably hoping for an easy game against Lewis now at the business end.
Price has had the best of it, Wright, Cullen & White all out, can’t see anyone in his Quarter causing him many problems
Gerwyn Price has a habit of this, getting a lead in a match than somehow throwing it away. I don't think he handles the breaks inbetween games very well.
Aspinall has been brilliant since the final break.

Notice sky had to mute the crowd
" 2 nil and you fecked it up "
" 2 nil and you fecked it up "
Or not then 2-0 and you fecked it up
Means that one of
Aspinall, K Anderson, Peterson, West, Alcinas , Van De Pas, Dolan or King Will be in the SF

Very impressive Van Den Bergh.
Poor Alan Norris, fair play to him for being able to play. His wife only has weeks to live, cancer is evilThese doubles
Or not then
Means that one of
Aspinall, K Anderson, Peterson, West, Alcinas , Van De Pas, Dolan or King Will be in the SF
I've missed the last three days being out on the lash.This match feels long. Chizzy v Kim should be good.
This match is incredible
Defo an upgrade on the last one!
