Hello ya old tart ya, how's tricks?

[nikkiboy]

Murnan should be nowhere near this tournament, devalues the whole thing imo.

[daveboygreen]

Murnan should be nowhere near this tournament, devalues the whole thing imo.

He won his spot via the qualifiers so deserves his place

[gm180]

Is Anderson the only player to have played in every one, now there's no Taylor?

Barney and Wade as well.

I see what you say but no, GRAND SLAM infers winners and he's at best a best placed loser.

Hardly Murnan's fault that the chance was there to qualify for this and did, You could say the same about some other players over the years in this but fact remains that the qualifying criteria is set and players do have the chance to qualify via the qualifiers and BDO.

Like I say I understand your point but him and the likes of gilding make a mockery of the whole thing.
Winners and winners only imo would make this the competition it should be.

Ratajski really is a solid thrower isn't he...

[Ginge]

Barney is an absolute disgrace. I think I may have said that before...

Had to nip to another room to get a few things ready for tomorrow..came back to see the end of the Barney match and t had finished !...blimey that was quick...if Barney has a poor Worlds can he really justify a wild card for the PL by Sky now and to be honest will the event lose anything by him not being there..I don't think it would now..

Barney won’t be there this year, there is no chance unless he has a great worlds

Said in another thread but an early exit and i can see him retiring and following Taylor round doing exhibitions

[Zapp Brannigan]

So all 8 seeds went through

2 out of 8 bdo players went through

1 out of 8 qualifiers went though

5 of the other 8 went through

My money is still on Wade to win this, Ratijski looks dangerous and could do some damage
