Ritchie-Humphries final. Pretty sure that was a footballer. Cadby averaged 99 but still.

Ha, you couldn't make it up.

Bradley Brooks v Ted Evetts final in Event 12.

[Fiss Plaps]

5-0 to Super Ted, Brooks didn't even average 70: https://members.dartconnect.com/history ... 398ccc055f

Back today for the penultimate weekend of the season, finally seeing a seasonal debut for DT stalwart Martin Schindler. Cadby obviously missing this too which isn't doing his hopes any good...

Cadby is doing less developing more devolving so his lack of presence is appropriate.

[cannibal]

I will give Cadby a year to get his stuff sorted. Young guy probably hasn't been away from home much, except maybe that week or two in county lock up. Newlywed, new experiences with the travel etc...Will be a serious set back if he doesn't make ally pally tho.

Shane McGuirk finally gets over the line this year, third final, first win as he beats countryman Keane Barry 5-4

[Potter's Lake]

Only a few more chances to talk about Killer before he fades into obscurity, sniff. Checked on his match just now, started a turn on 20 and managed to end it on 16, impressive work.

He must have gone 4 for D8. What was the other guy on?

[Potter's Lake]

38 or something like that. Seems the most likely but if you're splitting 20 you should probably be playing for the Renfrewshire Ladies C team.

[Fiss Plaps]

Evetts wins DT14. The top three are Tour Card holders. Credit to Erik as usual.

"Ted Evetts wins his 5th DT event this year (in 10 attempts) and his 9th in has career (only Dimitri Van den Bergh has more). He sees off 16-year old Owen Roelofs in the final. Of course Evetts leads the table, Nentjes is still 2nd. Meikle and McGuirk on the spots for TC."

[Emulsfier]

Nentjes wins DT15, with BDO youth chap Nathan Girvan runner up.
The best of the TC chasers was Callan Rydz, who went out in the last 16. He is now £600 behind the TC spot and £1100 off the WC spot. If someone could go stop Miekle that would be great.

[Emulsfier]

Uch, the number of times the early rounds of these turn into an utter crapshoot is insufferable. Rydz loses 4-0 with a 73 avg while Miekle WINS 4-0 with a fucking 59 avg. Revolting.

[Emulsfier]

Good display from two of the Irish lads, but Evetts rules supreme. One weekend to go.

Rydz and Rafferty were awful, allowing Meikle to gain some ground. It will probably take a win and some other solid work for Teehan or Keane to make it. Everyone below them is way off the pace and will need a miracle two days.

[thegentle]

Well done Evetts, now get a fucking move and get in the top 32!

[Emulsfier]

Just noticed that the 2019 "youth" championship is down to 64 players rather than 96 of last year. Anyone know what the rules for this ridiculous comp are?
Is it top 48 on the dev tour + 16 int qualifiers? Does Jeff get seeded number 1 automatically being in the main top 32? Is it straight knockout or are they doing that kack group stage thing again?
For what is usually a very slick operation, the PDC keep making this comp even more of a joke than it is already, changing the format year on year with next to no info on what is happening.

Where did you see that? The PDC site still says it's 96 split into 3 groups: https://www.pdc.tv/news/2019/08/21/schi ... uth-places
