What?
This happened when Chris commented earlier, before the Lewis game even started, after all the whitewashes before.
I commented when I came back on the forum.
No one here is taking away anything from Munch, you wally.
In fact I'm delighted Lewis is out, deserves nothing less.

Are you referring to my learned colleague and his post about the BDO averages, or my Lakeside post earlier about the whitewashes?

Exactly - great result for Munch, for the tournament and for German darts - end of!

For god sake. We have had a good standard so far and someone commented it compared favourably with previous years and another code. So what if there was a slight troll in there. People need to remember it is that which is keeping the forum going.

there certainly has been a lot of shock results so far.

Have to say most impressive players so far are MVG(no surprise there),Cross,Barney,Guerney & Anderson probably along with couple of others.

The draw is opening up in some sections and others it looks tough.

Personally i would love to see RvB reach Q/F as i really do think he is only player on that side of draw who can stop MvG from reaching Final as i think he is one of few players with half a chance against MvG over best of 9 sets .

It will be interesting as to how fit Peter Wright is as before tournament started i would have said S/F would be between him and Gary but that may change now.

If Taylor could somehow find same mindset and form he had at WMPL earlier this summer his draw has opened up and you would expect him to meet Gary in Q/F, obviously on current form you would expect Gary to win but it might suit Taylor going into that match as the underdog and who knows he may somehow pull off a shock result assuming he gets that far

Dear me.
I haven't watched any of tonight, been in the Indian.
I merely mentioned the score lines being whitewashes, not the quality of the matches.

I am shocked by your reply sparky........there is no need for language like that....especially from a mod.

As Chizzy, Wade, Lewis... out. Taylor retirement. Who are the England players at top 10 after worlds? Who are the two players at World Cup in ½ years time? May be two new comers?

You ll get the situation that although he hasnt done much all year James Wade again is gonna be the English representee at the World Cup of darts. Strange situation

Wade has always been a funny one, with regards attitude - admitted he'd rather be tinkering with cars than practising, then there was the
situation a few years back where he admitted spending too much time on the Wii and you get the feeling he wouldn't miss darts if he were
to walk away from it.

Has anyone worked out how far Lewis will drop after the worlds?
Isn't he losing 139k?

Ah didnt see that. So 20th but could be further if players below go far next week.
That is some extreme base jumping from the 7th floor.
