Phil 'The Power' Taylor

[EdWeatherall]

I know it's Darts, but am surprised there's not a thread on this

He threw two nine-darters last night to beat James Wade to win the PL of darts



Incredible

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Taylor is GOD.

 

[Arruda]

I love that hysterical "double twelve!!!" in the end of the video. I immediately recognized the voice from a similar video from some years ago.

 

[Boothy]

Thats top darts

 

[Barbara Charles]

You took my thunder, Ed, this afternoon. Taylor is an unbelievable competitor. He has been at the top for over 15 years and yet his drive and ambition never seem to flag. Amazing guy.

 

[McGrathsipan]

Taylor is GOD.

Then God is FAT

Wouldnae have had God down as a fatso

GOD works in mysterious ways.

Incredible. He's veering ever closer to darting perfection

Fair play to Wade you have to say, Taylor only won that final 10-8!

I absolutely loathe that commentator. I know there are two, but you know which one I am talking about.

Not a huge fan of darts but great respect for Taylor, what a player.

 

[Stobzilla]

almost did a third in that match as well. missed the 8th dart I think.

Unreal.

 

[Widnes]

does nobody else get a bit annoyed that instead of talking about the trophies he has won he always decides to talk about the prize money instead??? if a football player did that he would be slagged off for it.

 

[UnitedBoy]

he shoulda had 4!

I promise you I'll never* start a weekend thread


*I say never, but i may actually at some point

Im a bit gutted because I was offered a last minute ticket yesterday but decided to stay in and watch bloody England!!

Has a double 9 darter been done in 1 match before?

He is a proper legend

No. But then I don't agree he does that either

First time ever

 

[Stretch]

Fecking insane darts that is. Wow.

 

[brewlio]

It makes you wonder what heights he hits when on form in his own practice room. He's probably hit back to back 9 darters, or even 5 or 6 over a few hours. But similarly, I bet The Rocket has notched up back to back 147s in practice.

"I don't believe my goggling bins".

 

[Decotron]

Wade deserves a hell of alot of credit for his performance. Considering his form over the last year that was easily the best he's ever played. Taylor is a legend though.
