6 Paula Jacklin (England) 229

Women's darts can't be in that bad a state can it ?

Cant argue with that.

Indeed

Majors/TV events should be double points of CAT A+

phil davies wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 2:40 pm Hopefully Tricole can get himself into the top 26. The more non British and Benelux players qualified the better.

Also hope Tony Martin qualifies as he is always honest and unlike others can take a joke on here.

So no more British or Benelux players but Tony Martin is ok? Odd.

phil davies wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 5:40 pm Also let’s hope the American qualifier this year is actually one of their better players who could do damage at Lakeside rather than the likes of Widmayer. Though a lot also depends of which yanks qualify for the PDC worlds.

So if Widmayer qualifies then he is obviously the better player?

Given the points system no he isn’t. A lot of it especially in America comes down to who is willing to travel the most. Many of the better US players don’t do much of the BDO tour and instead focus on the CDC or/and softip events.

So if they can’t be arsed to travel or play in the BDO events then tough titties, Widmayer does.

There are girls in the Crewe league better than her. Just don't play the tour or have the cash or the time to do the travel club. It's a joke.

Oche forgot to put #5 in that's why it looks tragic.

John Scott putting the miles in.

One of the good guys. Be great if he and Spud qualified.

Oh dear. 2 are in county, don't play opens. No ranking points for county, you dolt.

All Crewe darters are world beaters hadn't you heard?

But still isn’t the best player in fact in the years he has qualified he has won less events than other Americans, the points system is rubbish.

What could be an alternative?

Ok, Are they averaging more in their games then Paula Jacklin

I'm no fan of Paula Jacklin but as in terms of Ladies standard she is that bad a player. Has won 3 events back to back recently and it had Dobromyslova in the field for one of them. Time to stop this shite, Yes she should do better on TV but you could say the same for Jamie Caven, Ian White, Gary Robson etc

Look you want all the players to play PDC events then you moan when you get someone who dont like/rate qualifying for a BDO major

I certainly wouldn’t put Ian White in the same bracket as Jamie Craven and Gary Robson.
