Taylor has a tough game v Hamilton tonight. Dont let the ludicrous odds the bookies put up fool you, this could be very very difficult! If Taylor doesnt up his game considerably (needs an avg of 100+ IMO) then he will get beat.

Thanks for reply. Agree, Taylor isn"t unbeatable. Last match his hand flutter a bit. But without risk no profit.;)
Good luck if you bet on darts tonight.;)

Van Gerwen struggling with his foot though, but yeah he looks good too.

Lewis v Van Gerwen match is simply incredible  8)

Set 9, currently 4-4 and 2-2, both players averaging 100+, 26 x 180"s between them and neither deserves to lose

Adrian Lewis always deserves to lose. Douchebag quotient in that half of the draw would"ve been too high otherwise.

Lewis took defeat very graciously. Not a big fan but he went up in my estimation there.

Not very patriotic, bug would love to see an all Dutch final

Great match, I"m glad Lewis lost cant stand him!! Limp hand shake!

As for all Dutch final it would be good but I think Taylor wants to win the Sid Waddell trophy.

Unlucky Wayne by the way!! ;D

What a match the MVG vs Wade match was!

Almost a back-to-back 180. That has to rank amogst the hardest things to achieve in any sport. Would have been incred!

Too many crashes at the APAT Wakeboarding Championships methinks  :D Of course Matt meant back-to-back 9 darters. What an incredible tourney it"s been, that"s for sure. Can"t wait for an epic Final between Taylor & Van Gerwen  8) Not sure what the aggro with Phil & Barney was at the end last night......anyone know?
Title: Re: Darts
Post by: adilong1 on December 31, 2012, 15:32:28 PM
Phil said he hurt his hand, poor lad!  ;D

He will get hammered by the Van if he plays like that

Phil Taylor"s just an unpleasant person. Probably covers it.

Come on MvG!

haha, I posted the same mistake on fb too but thankfully managed to edit it out before anyone replied. Didn"t realise I"d made the same mistake here too :) (I did indeed mean back-to-back 9-darters :D)

Aye, Phil Taylor was an idiot after last night"s game. He"s since apologised (probably after being advised to) saying that Barney hurt his hand in the handshake.

It"s a sad state of affairs when most of the UK are probably going to be supporting the non-British player tomorrow!...

Here"s a link to the bust up:

I didn"t think Ladbrokes were APATs sponsor for the 2009 UK Championship but this picture of Steve Redfern winning it must mean they were??

lol vg :D

What"s the prediction for tonight"s final? I"m going to go with MVG 7-6 Taylor with a sudden death leg in the final set :)
Title: Re: Darts
Post by: adilong1 on January 01, 2013, 14:01:17 PM
Want Taylor to win, think it will be his last. But I just think MvG is just in form of his life.

Can Taylor get in his head?

Oooh it"s a tough choice, I"m going for Taylor 7-5

Title: Re: Darts
Post by: Matt D on January 01, 2013, 14:17:07 PM
I think Taylor might have the crowd against him tonight, which could irk him somewhat.

Though, can MVG hit the doubles? He struggled with them massively in the QFs (though admittedly was a lot better in the SF).

I think MVG @ Evens is the bet :)
Title: Re: Darts
Post by: dwh103 on January 01, 2013, 15:39:54 PM
I reckon Taylor will win reasonably comfortably, say 7-4. Based purely on experience.
Title: Re: Darts
Post by: nosey-p on January 01, 2013, 20:17:57 PM
I"m on Taylor -1.5 @ 13/8

What a performance  8) Even when he was down 4-2 and Van Gerwen was on fire Taylor just refuses to buckle.

Agreed, I think he"s an absolute tit, but deserves a SPOTY gong before he"s done.

+1 (to the absolute tit bit).

Hope everyone who lumped on MVG stuck some on PT when he went out as far as 4/1. Would have guaranteed a profit whatever the result. I unfortunately, didn"t. Doh.
