as much as i prefer the PDC...this statement is true. Shepard averaged high 80's on his way to the final!

Er, they were asking if Adams could regularly sustain a 100+ average. It would seem he can't at this time.

I'd venture there's very, very few players who can. Taylor, obviously; probably Barney, but after that I don't see any of them doing it over the course of a long tournament.

James Wade ?

Erm, no. There was no mention of whether it meant tournament play or just one game. I just blew Maca's "myth" out of the window.

As Lord Percy said anyway, there are not a lot of people who can regularly sustain 100+ average over the course of a tournament; Taylor definately, Barney possibly. However, there are a few that could do it over the course of a match.

as long as he aint playing Taylor

Didnt wade avarage over 100 against Taylor in the world matchplay final?

Darts Database is your friend www.teessidesoftware.no-ip.com/D ... Stats.aspx I chose the dates from 15/01/1990 - 15/01/2009 and out of all darts players on averages that have been recorded, Phil Taylor is the only player to be over 100 on average. His win percentage at 91.51% is also truly unbelievable.

he did, but he also fell away badly after it was 9-9.

Not really Wades fault though, it was not like he was missing chances, just Taylor raised his game even more and finished the job. That final dart to win that match is seriously the best dart i have ever seen thrown

truth lies somewhere in between, Wade certainly was not playing like he was for the first 18 legs.

Pah i've thrown better bulls than that!

Darts is split into two isnt it? Like Smackdown & RAW? Did they have an auction for the players and everything?

Oh and the Lakeside final was truly awesomeness!

Yes there split. Basically all the big names in the game at the time when they split around 13 years ago (Phil Taylor, Eric Bristow, Dennis Priestly etc etc) and all complained to the BDO represetatives that there was not enough money in darts due to a lack of sponsership. They offered to help them find the sponsership to boost prize funds etc and make darts worthwhile. The BDO represetative point black refused therefore the big names helped create a new brand of darts (with the help of barry hearn) which is know as the PDC (obviously the SKY version of darts). Thats why you find that the bigger names in the BDO move over to the PDC purely because there is far more money involved. Terry Jenkis only turned pro around 2003 because before hand there was not enough money involved to make it worthwhile. Darts has really taken off over the last 5-6 years and its ALL down to the PDC in my honest opinion. Though you do get some good matches with the BDO in the world championships

Normal service is resumed

Phil Taylor won both tournaments staged in Gibralter this weekend

[url=http://www.planetdarts.tv/page/NewsdeskDetail/0,,10180~1523232,00.htmlSaturday report[/url and a competetive 9 dart finish for Mark Walsh

[url=http://www.planetdarts.tv/page/NewsdeskDetail/0,,10180~1524430,00.htmlSunday[/url

For those interested about Anastasia, she got tubbed 6-0 on Saturday by Mark Dudbridge, won a qualifier on Sunday before losing 6-3 to Mark Walsh

The semi losers got £1,500 - that would hardly cover their expenses?

Sponsors.

More like WWE and WCW fella. Go to the Oracle of Wikipedia for the great split of darts.

The Lakeside final is inferior to the stuff at the Ally Pally.

Apart from this year when the BDO final absolutely ed all over the PDC one.

The standard of darts didn't, probably what he was getting at.

*Shakes head in disbelief*

Funny, that's exactly what I do at your posts.

Why? It was far more entertaining from a neutrals perspective.

Draw for the first round of the Players Championship Finals next weekend, a cool £200,000 to be split amongst the players.

Van Voort v Mason
Llyod v Caven
Baxter v Eccles
T Jenks v Jones
King v McBrearty
Osbourne v A Smith
Priestley v Maish
Painter v Roy
Tabern v Lewis
Hamilton v Manley
Wade v Beaton
Thorton v Dudbridge
Taylor v Van Gerwen
Barney v A Jenkins
Ovens v Part
Walsh v Mardle

Every game to be shown on ITV4 i believe.

My predictions.

Hopefully they won't build up the Taylor v Van Gerwen match as much as Sky did, because we all know what the final result was.

Couple of good matches there though.
