Loved watching wade in 2006-12. Great seeing him play this well again. Didn't think he had it in him anymore.

Me neither. Seems to be playing better with better scoring. Wonder what he’s changed in his game?

Mardle is usually wrong but he is right about wade going back to his normal throw. When he was in bad form his arm was way too high.

Becoming a father has seemed to help as well.

Interesting stats from over the road:

Hughes does have the 4th highest opponent average . 95.0.
Willie O'Connor has the highest opposing averages 95.5.

But, Hughes also is only winning 35% of legs against the darts. Putting him 75th in that stat.
O'Connor is at only 26%, 124th.
Worst is George Killington, who's only won 10% against throw.

So, maybe Hughes isn't taking chances against the throw, so like Durrant he ends up losing with a high average


As of now, he's doing a Nicho, well on course to qualify for the Euros, but not in the Players. Stats would suggest he'll probably get some results sooner rather than later, but he could do with pulling his finger out against throw

There's 0 chance he doesn't qualify for the Players Championship Finals with the way he's playing.

Indeed, though he'd prefer a good seeding there, and if he does pull his finger out there's a chance he could gatecrash the Grand Prix

MVG & Mensur skip 13 only. John Michael & John Goldie miss both, extending Goldie's run to 9 PCs without participation. Hasn't competed in a single event since the UK Open.
2020 World Grand Prix Lucky Dip winner!
2x 2019 Q-School Lucky Dip winner!

Both as valuable as the Lakeside piss pot!
