Reckon Mensur will slow Gary down, mess with his head and make it a game of doubling rather than scoring. Every match this week so far has been played at a fast pace for Gary. Mensur at 10/3 looks some value

Ohhh is that a wee dig at Peter Wright, when he says if you hit 80% on your doubles but only ave 101 that means your scoring has been rubbish?ssjsa wrote:Tungsten tales interview with Gary.

Can’t be right Paddy can it, must be the heat
Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
Really looking forward to the final, will be interesting to see if Mensur's style will get to Gary. Mensur must be horrible to play against with all the snatched darts. Just like playing against Jocky Wilson back in the day
Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
Excited for the final. It's all about how Gary can handle the Suljovic 'act'. Mensur plays dumb, and acts like he doesn't understand at times, but you'd better believe he knows how to get an advantage around the oche. Mind games.
Gary seems to really hate the Suljovic action, they're absolute chalk and cheese in terms of throw/speed/style and natural ability and i think Gary believes Mensur isn't worthy of matching him and when he does it makes Gary falter.
I've no actual evidecne of this, just how it appears to me when they have played or spoken about it.
If Gary just throws and throws close to his best he walks it. If Mensur grinds him down a level I think it could be a thriller.

Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
It must get annoying seeing a player throw with such a poor action, legs flailing mid throw, slow, irritable habits.
Miracle at times the darts land where he aims, it's not natural and against someone who makes it effortless, smooth and look sinple, I must get frustrating keep seeing the darts hit.

Great post, it's exactly what I think. I think if Gary treated this like an exhibition match(with the time in between throws) he could win it easy. As long as he dosen't start rushing up to the oche after Mensur has thrown.MrLil8 wrote:Excited for the final. It's all about how Gary can handle the Suljovic 'act'.

Mensur played less legs and been on stage an hour longer, we could be in for a long slow night here.
Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
The difference in individual leg times is quite stark too.

Great 1st session for Gary to be up 3-2 with a break, despite missing 9 darts at a double.

Good first session there. Looks like Anderson will pull away after this break.

Poor shot selection from Gary on the 90 checkout.
He normally always go the 20 route.

That's back on throw and a mini session win each. Gary will be mad that he got broke there.

Suljovic will probably win from here.
