Why do so many people dislike Jelle Klassen?

What has he ever done wrong?

Same with Hitler mate he was just misunderstood

[SuperSwede]

I have no problem with Adams and I would still have Scott Waites above him so quite a few polls to go in my eyes before he becomes relevant.

Poll will run until this evening

[Captain Hobo]

Voted for Barney. Think his overall career was slightly more impressive than Gando.

[Captain Hobo]

Well we could look at their BDO careers. Barney has done far better. Anderson never won the worlds or the masters.

And?

Anderson has won more PDC World titles, a Matchplay title, is ahead 23-19 in head to head meetings with Headshaker, and is 3rd all-time in terms of most wins on the Pro Tour. Anderson has also won the PL twice, whereas Headshaker only won it once.

Headshaker might have been better from 2001-2010, but Anderson has been better ever since and has had more success at the highest level. Thriving in the PDC in the 2010s is far more impressive than thriving in the BDO in the late 90s and mid-2000s.

Yet you think the PL is virtually meaningless when Duzza wins it.

Barney also won 2 UK Opens, A Grand Slam and a Desert Classic. It's certainly much closer than you make it out to be.

And in your opening sentence you put Senna on his arse for the K.O (BOOM)
I guess the PL is only relevant when it suits eh Senna?

I don't think the PL is meaningless in general. I just don't rate Duzza's PL title because he was lucky and the standard in the playoffs was dire.

He won the league stage = He got more points than anybody else, he was the best player. The league table doesn’t lie.
As for the play offs being dire? I’ll grant you there have been better play offs, but he rose above everyone else and won.
His name is on the trophy, that’s all that matters to him.

Doesn't mean that I have to rate him as a player though, does it?

No it doesn’t, but I noticed in your top 20 list of all time you had Duzza in it, which did surprise me tbh.

Only one answer to that.
