Great darts by Whitlock , The treble 18 double 18 double 16 was superb darts .

The BDO's Worlds Championships is about to start. Is Colin Murray the new face of darts on the Beeb or is it just due to Stubbs' health problems?

Hopefully, this tournament can be as good as last years. Fitton, O'Shea or Waites for me. Any one of them to win it and I'll be happy.



Back to the PDC Worlds, Taylor and Whitlock were awesome last night. Didn't think Lewis played that badly, Taylor just took control at the key points in the game.

Stubbs is at ESPN now so they have to get someone else to do it.

Webster v Whitlock or Taylor v Barney in the final for me!

God this BDO darts is terrible when does the proper darts start

They've all been close matches, there were some shockers at the start of the PDC Worlds too. van der Wiel impressed in what was a fairly average match, some good finishing and scoring, his main problem was the amount of bounce outs he had. He'll need to sort that out, because Walton was poor, against better opposition, he'll be knocked out.

The Silverback-Kong battle was a great match, with some very impressive scoring. O'Shea, despite pretty average finishing got some decent scoring and played well. If he can improve his finishing he'll have a very good chance of winning the tournament.

I wouldnt know I only watched 5 minutes of it and had to turn it off for fear of been comatose

Whitlock to win ?

Watched the Shepherd v Part game the other day and it was truly dreadful when they both got down to dbl 1

Aye.

Sometimes, it's better to see games with 80 odd averages, which are very close and go all the way than seeing someone completely tear apart their opponent and win to nil. Last year's Lakeside final was one of the best darts matches I've seen, the tournament was also very good, hopefully this one can be just as good.

I hope tonights games live up to all the hype, last nights were dissapointing in the fact that they were both blow outs I hope both games go all the way tonight.

I would love to see Whitlock get through to the final and hopefully give Taylor a good game, I say Taylor because I cant see him even being tested TBH

Whitlock has a very good chance of doing Barney tonight. His scoring and finishing is superb. The amount of 180s he gets is unbelievable.

Do you think Simon Whitlock will be getting a Premier League Wildcard?...

I do but I dont really know whos in the frame for it to be honest!!

what an end

What a comeback from Whitlock. When Barneveld went 4-2 up I thought that it was over, but he should nerves of steel get back into the match. Barnevelds finishing let him down at the end though.

pfftt

he (Whitlock) was just an average BDO player

Barney has serious mental issues. He looked like topping himself every time he missed a double and in the end it cost him the match. Great performance by the Wizard though.

Taylor is absolutely destroying Webster ATM.

3-0
3-1
3-1
3-2

He's outscoring him by around 15/16 in the averages too.

The guy is simply a freak

Definately picked the right game to watch. So glad the Whitlock/Barney game was a close one.

Couldn't be d with the Taylor/Webster match because I knew what the eventual outcome would be.

I lost interest after Taylor went 3-0 up. That and Waddells constant fawning over him.

Taylor and Waddell are the main reasons why the Lakeside darts is a much more enjoyable event. It is just ruined by Taylor winning it all the time and Waddell cracking one off over every dart he throws IMO.

Add to that the "bovver boys" who are just there to shout abuse and sing along to "Chase the Sun" and it is worsened further.

Having said that, I will watch the final but I doubt it will be much of a competition. Come on the Aussie!

Taylor is my homeboy.
