2017 PDC Grand Slam of Darts, Wolverhampton 11-19 November

[Mgt]

Well, that was dissapointing. And a meaningless match coming up to booth.

[slymaster]

Wow - Great stuff for Mr. Lennon!
But damned the Iceman let this melt away.

[DavidB]

Oh dear, Price totally bottling again when the pressure is on, what a shame...

[DavidB]

Hughes must be kicking himself at his performances over the weekend, could have easily gone through top of the group.

Price will be thinking that more, should be through already...

[Zapp Brannigan]

Nice to see Dennis put the shirt back on there.

[DavidB]

And there is Mmmbop !!!

[ssjsa]

Right gunna start this debate early is it better to throw first or second in the 9 dart shootout 2nd IMO.

Darren won the bull, and put Webby in first, so he agrees with you.

[Mgt]

Right gunna start this debate early is it better to throw first or second in the 9 dart shootout 2nd IMO.

Definitely second, gives you the possibility to play it safe on your third throw if the opportunity presents itself. See Thornton-Van den Bergh last year.

[WizardofozFan]

Well that was bloody exciting, nip-and-tuck, super counting from Darren Webster at the end there - single 20, treble 1 and knew instantly he needed to switch to T19 to progress. Well done Darren, always an interesting interview!

[WizardofozFan]

Laura Woods looking absolutely stunning with her hair down, wow. She's very good too, more importantly. A successor to Clark for the afternoon sessions?

[DavidB]

Could listen to Darren Webster all day, just doesn’t stop!!!

[Bram_1900]

Durrant - Chisnall is gonna be an absolute cracker. Van Barneveld - Cross will also go over the full length of games I think.

[ChrisW]

I doubt Chizzy will be able to keep up with Duzza over the longer format.

[WizardofozFan]

Durrant-Chisnall should hopefully be one of those where we can all just sit and watch good darts by two proper professionals at a decent pace.

Barney-Cross could be fantastic too, Barney must get ahead early doors because Rob's far too solid if he gets a lead at the first break.

[WizardofozFan]

Does anyone have an updated World Championship seedings race?
