Even by Smith's standards this is pathetic

It's a matter of time for Smith. A matter of time until what, I'm not quite sure

Aye, I have the Worlds, Matchplay, UK Open and GP as the 4 majors.

This is correct.

The new shirt on Cross is appalling

Amazed Smith is still in this

Yes Cross.

Crossy, mate.

Good stuff in the end, been a very good afternoon session!

Emulating a Wycombe Wanderers team sure to struggle all year in the Championship

Old cross st the end, there

I was too polite to say anything but I did wonder if senna has discovered the 2 for £7 offer on tubs of Roses and had an incident.

Would prefer Cross to win this now. With most top players being either lackluster or insufferable, an in-form Bobby would be a welcome sight.

Cross is a weird cunt, good to watch when his scoring power is there though but Hope wade beats him.

Old school thinking. The PDC ( not me) have around 10 premier events of which the masters is one of them. It doesn’t matter what Randall or Thorn says, the fact is the winner of the Masters will be deemed a Premier event winner.

I didn’t watch the Smith v Cross match, but let me guess one player shook his head a lot and wondered why he wasn’t averaging 120 ?

Peter Wright (100.23) 10-5 (99.39) Daryl Gurney

Gerwyn Price (100.94) 10 -9 (103.37) Nathan Aspinall

Glen Durrant (102.46) 9-10 (99.14) James Wade

Michael Smith (98.10) 8-10 (98.67) Rob Cross

Some disappointing results, but it ended up being a very entertaining session. Long odds on the winner coming from that first semi tho
