That means nothing, Landon Gardiner was the 2nd Kiwi choice and he has also now fucked them off. Assume things have changed slightly down there with the Ommneycom variant.
Anyway, if it isnt Fallon, and she pulls out at a later date, its not good form.

Anyway, just to confirm who the dropouts from the original list were:
- Roman Obukhov (Russia)
- Jeremy Fagg (Australia)
- Landon Gardiner (New Zealand)
Still not sure who Vicky Pruim has replaced in the ladies draw, assume it must be the Kiwi.
Is it not Sherrock?
It would make more sense if the Kiwi has bailed given how that country is currently operating (assuming she lives in NZ too, obvs).
Would be a bit off if it isnt Fallon and she bails after the draw tbh, been given ample opportunity to do it beforehand.
It would only be a problem if she's already decided not to play in it, but she's hoping that wins at the PDC World Championship will allow her to say that she needs a break before Q School.
We also still don't yet have any announcement from the PDC about how they'll handle the clash between the end of the WDF World Championship and Q School.

Fallon won't pull out after the draw, surely? If she withdraws, and let's face it, she will, she should do in in good time.
i would like her to withdraw in plenty of time, not just seeing how she does at ally pally (if does ok then withdraw) thats not on, shes the face of the pdc now so she should have the grace to do the decent thing for clarity, not leave the decision hanging like a bad smell

I'm expecting the PDC to announce a place in Stage 2 for the players in the final, at least. (Possibly quietly).
That would give them a couple of days off before Q School Stage 2.
The PDC hasn't officially announced the Q School structure, but the PDPA has dates 9th to 15th 2022, implying 2 stages, and if there are the same 3 days of stage 1, and 4 days of stage 2, then it would be 7 consecutive days for anybody having to go through both stages.

Yeah, my sister in law has had to come back to uk from NZ due to family illness and they can’t organise the managed hotel stay on there return until February as it is all fully booked. Means they will more than likely stay in the uk till then, when in February NZ are set to drop the hotel stays. So can imagine anyone coming over just for the championships will think twice.
