Great game that. Rock rocked!

If he done 12/12 that would have been the greatest performance ever. That’s better than the 124 avg

Going to have to watch this later I'm at work bloody Three are useless since the merger with Vodafone

Lush performance.

Tell you what I'd full Kevin Keegan love it to see him laughing and joking about whilst giving MVG a good merking. Almost hope he beats Anderson just to get the opportunity :cry:

Hood to win the whole tournament he's got the crowd now (won't be likely but would love to see it).

Santy had his chances but fluffed it.

Clayton moves to world no.4 and Bunter is crying into his postal order, means no automatic pick for the Premier League.

After his performance last year in the PL, someone else needs to get a go.

Totally agree I can't believe the backlash that Bunting has had since he's publically outed himself as the people's champion (myself included always think of him as a bottler).

The guy is a total whopper and his social media team need a slap bigging him up to being something he isn't. It will be an absolute travesty if Van Veen and Rock aren't in there - have to give Rock some props because he handled the defeat to Hood admirably.

I completely agree. He did have the crowd and the fans if you will on SM. The sheer amount of videos with his walk on saying the aura etc he had to play on that but he’s not capitalised on it really and it’s gone bad. Really bad, now his kid is getting abuse on SM.

A lot of people said that Asp only got the PL because of his walk on so it does play a massive part if you can get the crowd singing and creating that buzz.

Quite a few times IIT a few of us mentioned poor crowds tonight.

As much as I'd love to see Rock get it, I think he will just miss out. Just hasn't quite done enough, although I'd happily see him in. Clayton and Van Veen must be in the PL for sure.

Football and darts on madness

Rock needs to shine in these tournaments to rise his stock not hitting the Quarters is poor from a player of his standard.

With a player hitting 10 out of 10 doubles,there’s not much you can do about that.

Even the two Lukes might have succumbed to that level of darts.

Manby making a game of it to be fair

Scary thing about Hood is that he couldn’t give a monkeys and it was so refreshing to seeing someone really enjoying themselves on the stage - a stark contrast to the idiots of Menzies and and Evans.

Kelt · 30 Dec 2025 at 20:05

Van Veen cruising now.

bingham67 · 30 Dec 2025 at 20:11

Easy for Van Veen in the end
