Not watched much, what actually happened ?
Webster poured the water all over his case at the start of the game and I think it wound him up then in the interview post game he suggested Webster had done it on purpose

All a bunch of nothing really

Research aside, I thought that giggling nervously and agreeing with every single thing that Mardle said is not good comms.

Just because she is much better than Trina does not make her any good.

It's a resounding "no" from me.

Agree with you in the main as she got better during the day.
Not as bad as the interviewer who congratulated on his 12 100+ finishes during his 5-2 win over Warren.

She was ok . Scope for improvement when you factor in nerves etc. Soccer and RL have tried shoehorning in female pundits on tv and some real stinkers in prime spots that wouldn't be anywhere near in less PC times. Discrimination and equality often only work for those who shout the loudest.

The camerawork/spotting for the Smith 9 darter was dreadful - didn’t even show the shot at double or where the dart landed afterwards and the commentators didn’t even know what was going on either. Even if Smith has gone the conventional t17 d18 it would still have been missed!

not sure why you would go T17 D18 when on a 141 after hitting T20 with your first dart as you would bust if you hit it.
Surely the spotter must know that Smith goes T17 D15 when on 81!!

Oh dear

Dolan, on the verge of quitting the game cause he’s pish, dishes out a 5-1 beating of the BDO #2. Not pub players your playing now. Flyers can use his frequent flyer miles and book that return flight to Holland.

The BDO embarrassment continues........
Des Jacklin: ‘People say the BDO can’t compete with the PDC, but that is the biggest load of crap in the world’

God rest Alf Garnett and Prince Phil.

I used to love cycling but unfortunately I know a man who doesn’t like cyclists. :roadrage:

Get the scoreboard up Paddy...

In all seriousness, this could finally be the rod that breaks the camels back with this event.

May I, by the way, show real credit to Laura Turner in the last couple of days. Putting others to the shame. Doesn't forgive her actions at the Masters however...

It’s a bit painful to watch, the 2 ladies are putting up a better fight than the men, interesting to see how Ashton does next!
