World Cup of Darts 2019

I hope they get dumped out early on either way. Don't care about MVG and either Barney or Wattimena anyway. Could be playing Scotland in the last 4.

Croatia - Robert Marijanovic & Dragutin Horvath?
in the words of Sir Paul, "Let 'em in"

What's that I hear you ask? You wanna know the Gibraltar World Cup team? No? Well too bad

[The Thorn]

Parody being an ever present is impressive even if it's only Gibraltar we're talking about. I reckon they are the two best players. Were there qualifiers for this or some other criteria?

[thegentle]

Yeah, think it was a knockout comp

[Greipel]

Didn't Parody block Lopez on twitter last year, when the latter beat Dyson at the Gibraltarian ET qualifier?

Brazil qualifier for this is today

Playing off for just one spot then I imagine?

Portela is in Germany now to cheer for Duzza, so yes.

[The Thorn]

Artur Valle won this so he's in the World Cup, well done. He beat Ze Mario Portela (Diogo's brother) 6-5.

Teams have been confirmed, Philippines have returned in place of Thailand. Would have liked to see Portugal and Lithuania too, but it'll be good to see Ilagan and Malicdem (I presume it's them?), that duo is a real dark horse of a partnership

[The Thorn]

The Italian qualifiers are today. Michele Turetta, Daniele Petri, and Michel Furlani have all lost.

Quarterfinals:

Marco Apollonio - Daniel Gogele 6-4
Andrea Micheletti - Mattia Pinelli 6-1

Danilo Vigato - Stefano Tomassetti 1-6
Giuseppe di Rocco - Alessio Medaina 4-3 live

Micheletti and Tomassetti prevail in the end, though Tomassetti survived numerous match darts against young upstart di Rocco. Both have pedigree by Italian standards, Micheletti has played a bit at Q-School and UK Open qualifiers, and Tomasetti won a BDO event in Greece the other week, so could have been worse

[The Thorn]

Here they are. Don't really recognize the names but from what I've read they could be decent.

[cannibal]

neither of those useless tossers avg over 80 for their time at q school. In fact out of the four days I believe only once did each of them avg like 83 that was their high. They won't be decent.

Pal Szekely will be part of the Hungarian team, having qualified for one of the Euro Tour events. The other place to be decided by a qualifier on April 20th

Hopefully the other will be Lakatos, as he showed his tough game at Q-School and against MvG at the Budapest (Érd) exbo.

Sure, it would be nice to see a young lad as well. I recall you were pretty disappointing last year, it can only get better
