Sounds like to me that this will be a massive kick in the balls to either Gurney (most likely in my opinion) or Chisnall (who I think is probably in despite being on the wrong end of the de Zwaan thriller)

As for the main field, every underdog at the Worlds is out so we can kind of make our mind up. Top 6 and Aspinall are nailed on to be in. I'd say it's Chizzy, Gurney and Durrant for the last 3 spots. On merit I'd drop Gurney but he's the highest ranked of the 3 though.
It's 9 Main Players vs 9 Contenders one each week Thorn

Of course, I meant last 2 spots.
The truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to seekers after it.

I think the top 8 in the rankings now are pretty much certain, with possibly Gurney the only exception.
I think Duzza might get one of the sky picks..

Now that the PDC have changed the contenders to challengers..
Could this be their way of sneaking Barney into one of the Rotterdam nights???
I hope not, but wouldn't be surprised

The 2020 Unibet Premier League will feature nine 'Challengers' in a return to the successful format of the 2019 tournament.
Excellent. Didn't realise until I got it how much I value the variety. Chuck em all in.

There were some incredible reactions last year. Who was it on here who managed to decide to boycott all the contender games?
SolidSCB? Knows his stuff, but I don't know whether they guy knows the meaning of the word fun lol
Nah it wasn't him. It was probably some youth.

De Zwaan
Noppert
Wattimena

These three will contend the two Rotterdam places.

Duzza went deep at the Matchplay, Grand Prix, Slam and Worlds. All the Sky events. Sky will pick him as one of the 9 if they need to, yes.

Barney... don't worry. It is over :) There's always JdZ, now Dutch #2. A TV final for Norbit this year. Aileen de Graaf.

Ah yes, my early forum days. That whole boycott thing didn't last too long. The contenders wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, yet not as good as some made out.

I'm pretty certain he would have been in anyway.
But that's Wright guaranteed for the Premier League.

He'd be in as a Sky Pick.

Now Sky must choose someone else. My take for the Sky picks would be Gary and Duzza.

Rather they gave it to Chizzy than Durrant.

If they put Chizzy in as a challenger than I expect Jackpot to be in also as one of the nine challengers.....
