Obviously with his issues Wade finds the mental part of the game tough, knuckling down when it's not happening for him is often an issue.

Crikey Anderson allowed into the Taylor/Barney interview room!!

More brickbats for Bristow

I like the way that Anderson has contradicted virtually all of Rod Harrington's assertions in this interview.

Would love to see jelle do the business tomorrow but I just don't think hes reliable enough on doubles and only really scores highly in bursts.

Anderson just pummels the treble 20 for fun and has gotten so ruthless on doubles.

The reason Wade will never win a major right there just gives up far too easily and more often then not gets destroyed by the Lewis, Ando's and MVG's of the world
Are you talking about 8 time major winner James Wade ? The 3rd most successful ( in terms of majors won ) PDC player of all time ?

I think i want Klassen to win,, there is something about his darts that has flair, some of his cover shots and 180's were stunning darts, the only thing that frustrates me is the really scruffy legs he has, in one throw he hit the middle of the 20 , nowhere near the treble, went for treble 19 and missed, then for some reason went for treble 17 and missed it by a long way, and then in another leg hits an 11 darter with absolute ease.

On form his darts are a joy to watch, his darts style is odd to watch he seems a liittle bit square on but i guess it works for him, if he can cut out the very low scores, he could be the next world champ i think.

i suppose i'm a casusul darts fan so i dont really know huge amounts about the sport apart from i enjoy watching, and Klaasen has stood out for me for some reason

Id hardly write him off yet he's still got plenty years left in him at the top. Reached a major final as recently as July (arguably second biggest event in darts)

Hel always be knocking on door at latter stages it only needs a draw to open up or for him to rediscover some of his form of old

I always wonder why Mardle says he has only 7 every time? is one not quite worthy of a major or something?

Even John McDonald calls out 8.

Isn't the questionable one that Championship League internet-only tournament from a few years back?

Presume it's the behind doors players championship that he's omitting, incorrectly imo

Cagey second set after a cracking opener. Barney won't go away though could be another thriller in store!

Smith v Ando is the dream final it's a bit like Tayor v Lewis all those years ago

Id much rather Lewis far more consistent and likely to turn up than Smith. That said im a big Smith fan

yeah resilient stuff borne out of experience. 2-3 now and throwing first in the sixth there's every chance it'll go 3-3

Last week at the darts has been unreal with the close games and barney's pulled it back from the brink so it seems

I think Smith has thrown this match away.

He was 3-0 up and coasting and has just eased up too much.
