Of course Wade is an all time great. To have won six majors in an era when the level of competition has never been more fierce is incredible. There are so many excellent players who have never come close to winning even one. Fair play to James, an amazing darts player.

Once again, it is hard to see past Taylor for any of the majors this year. He is still only at about 75%of his form, but the signs are ominous. When he hit that 180 in response to Andersons 180 in the last leg that was classic Taylor, and a sign that he is relishing the fight again. Watch out the re...

I cannot believe that a darts forum has descended into this nonsense. This is all something that i would expect in the over sensitive very pc world of football. But darts. Give me a break. Ban me if you want but a bunch of grown men going on like a bunch of big girls blouses. If darts goes down this...

I was there last night as well. My take on it was that he was so much in the comfort zone, just so relaxed and thought he would just work the crowd. Whitlock, Anderson and Barney before him got great receptions from the crowd, i think he was trying very hard to out do them.

Sounds a cracking idea if produced and presented in the right way. Some events on Bravo and other channels can be a bit dull, and have been in the past. Give it the ITV Grand Slam set up and we are sorted. Anyway. Team GB Captain: Priestley Vice Captain: Bob Anderson Players: Taylor, Wade, Anderson,...

Have to say that actually seeing the fixtures in black and white, this is easily the best line up yet, with every match looking like a corker. Hard to see how it could have been any better to be honest.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but i remember during the Lakeside just before Woods played his match, Martin Adams and some others had some really derogatory things to say about him, during one of the players about the other players thing. Wonder if any of this came from the fact that they kne...

John Part beating Taylor in the final was my standout final.

If the guy above is seriously trying to suggest that Phil Taylor, the greatest darts player ever, has anything to prove against Martin Adams, then i have lost my faith in the wisdom of darts fans. Wise up. Get real and stop trying to defend the undefendable.

Any product is difficult to promote and sell without a star player/ team etc. Say what you want about sky and the pdc but they have used Phil Taylor to promote their product brilliantly. Everything they have achieved has been based around his popularity and brilliance. Unfortunately the BDO do not h...

Anthony Fleet, Darryl Gurney, Garry Thompson, Martin Phillips, Dave Chisnall, Tony West, John Walton, Ross Smith.
8 of the biggest names in darts. Martin Adams last 8 opponents en route to winning it last year and a semi final this year. What a joke

If people are entertained by watching the elite players whack in 180s and have great checkout percentages resulting in high averages what is wrong with that. It has become common place in the pdc anyway. When it happens it is great to watch and much more entertaining than two mugs playing out a 5-4 ...

I personally do not believe that you can compare codes on the back of one tournament a year GSOD. The only way to compare where a player stands is how he competes on a week on week basis over a year or two period. Take the example of Gary Anderson who beat Taylor 7-3 in a final in Holland, and on yo...

I do not think people are indicating that averages are the be all and end all in assessing quality in a darts match or event. But i would agree that when people are reaching the quarter finals of a world championship event with an average of 78-84, it devalues the overall impact of winning it. Espec...

Would still like to see Tony O Shea cross over. He is a good player, has a good persoonalityand could be a real fans favourite. He has a good all round persona that i would like to see in the PDC.

Agree with most of the above,and dont believe that a couple of good matches from now on in can salvage this wreckage. Granted, when the BDO players play in the grand slam they up their game, and show they can mix it with the best. That is a fact. But take them out and put them back in their own envi...

Very pleased for Jenkins, looking at his performances at the worlds, he is coming back to some serious form, and can beat anyone in the world when he is on it. If anyone from the BDO want in then they should come over and earn it like Anderson and Webster.

Who could argue with that if its correct. Terry Jenkins deserves it as much as anyone else, and certainly more than some of the names bandied about on here, Nicholson, VVV to name 2.

Dekker v Norris or Thompson for a place in the semi-finals. Assuming qualifying criteria is kept the same for the Grand slam, 4 semi-finalists of this rubbish get into the Grand Slam! Time to change the criteria then, you cant let average darts in just for the sake of it. Outside of Waites and poss...

Rubbish from both players. If thats the number two seed going out like that without a fight, its pathetic really. I also agree that it is pathetic from Adams that he would not at least acknowledge Lewis. For the record his commentary is awful. Stating the obvious at every occasion.
