Martin Adams, an all-time great?

[sennafan24]

I think Adams is a cunt like everyone but I'm struggling to think of 40 better players

I dunno.

Ronnie Baxter was probably a better player than Adams. Where would you rank him?

Hmm
You could make a case for half the pdc current top 32 but most of them need to win something of any note 1st.

Would did Adams win of note?

The scania open!!

[Randall]

I dont know

Do we rank chizzy above him?
Mark webster?
Whitlock?

I loathe Whitlock, but I'd rate him the same as Spineless.

The standard of their play is comparable
His run at the worlds in 2010 was better than anything Adams achieved

I think most people connected with darts would have Adams in the top 20 but I guess because it doesn’t fit your agenda you will no doubt accuse me of trolling again

No, and I bet those players wouldn’t consider themselves above Adams in an all time ranking list.

There's a difference between greatest and best. Standard-wise you would have Chizzy and probably Whitlock too ahead of Adams. If it's about greatness, the 3 Lakeside titles, however crap they are count more than Chizzy's and Whitlock's zero (or 1?) major combined

Whitlock won a PDC TV ranking event.

That carries more weight than any of Adams' Lakeside wins imo.

[Emulsfier]

At least Chisnall and Whitlock have made major finals. Adams' best is a measly matchplay semifinal.

It's harder but not necessarily a greater achievement I'd say

Is that you Senna struggling to find out who I am on Owlstalk?

[thegentle]

Where do Beaton and Burnett rank? I mean, they both had long and undistinguished careers in the PDC (would Adams have done any better? I don't know), but their Lakeside titles were up against some very good opponents, as opposed to Wolfie who beat almost nobody on the way to 3 titles

Fair points.

[Randall]

Excellent points

[oche balboa]

Wolfie 25/1 to win the 2001 World Grand Prix, there. Level with that other "all-time great" Dave Askew.

He hadn't yet matured, presumably.

LOL
