Thing is most of that stuff is in Europe too, so as long as you've got MVG turning up to pretty much everything which he does it matters less.

I would guess most of them aren't happy about the world tour particularly. Pretty draining, but pretty sure they get well paid for it, and as always money will talk.

money does talk, agreed. Phil is doing everything he can to challenge but he's just world #2 now. simple as that

Taylor always averages high like that in defeat though. He didn't actually play very well, and was thoroughly outclassed on stage despite the averages saying otherwise. Probably worst of all is he seemed resigned to the fact he had lost very early.

and arguably world #3 over a shorter format

Anderson is still #2. Hasn't Anderson won 2 world titles since Taylor even won a TV title. Hard to argue otherwise if that's true. Anderson is more up and down than Taylor.

that was one of my luckiest bets, taylor thrashed him in averages , legs and 180s, the only thing won was highest checkout which he won with 130(in a match of that length with players of that class 130 uniquely to suffice)but it did and i i actually laid 1.7 mag i that market, i feel a bit blessed

Taylor is still #2 in the world in my eyes.

Taylor tends to average high because he doesn't tend to throw in gunk legs sitting on 300 when the other guy is finishing, he will throw a lot of solid 100s etc. But there's more to darts than just a high average, it's when you play the big legs.

see you in the tennis thread

By:
also losers of matches averages falsely high as they have less darts at double and more darts at the treble 20

By:
19 180s i think

You ain't going to beat anyone is that long format if your opponent throws 67% on the checkouts. Like Phil said it was a bullying, one of the best MVG showings of many.

Absolutely bizarre behaviour from Taylor again tonight.
Looks very likely he has mental issues and probably attention disorders. Its always been lurking in his character but got aired big time tonight. From the moment he knew he couldn't win at about 11 _ 5 his whole persona changed and his focus was on keeping the attention on himself no matter how much of a fool he had to make of himself. When kids have ADD they can't accept their siblings getting attention in front of them so will try all sorts to switch the attention to themselves ranging from the annoying to bold to downright dangerous if they have to. It was telling how he calmed down during his interview apart from trying to rally support to bully mvg even confessing to wanting to teach someone to do it if he couldn't. In his mind mvg should not be getting more attention than him and had to be taken down anyway by anyone. Also telling how he didn't want to give up the interview when they went back to Michael even sticking his head in front of the camera. Most of Taylors antics during the match were behind mvg,s back like the copying of his celebration the faces to the crowd about him and whipping up the crowd on his throw. I think mvg will be disappointed in Taylor when he watches it back and Taylor should be ashamed as should mardle and Harrington who are only too quick to pull up some rookie yet kept stun through all that tonight. |

Was out last night but just caught up with taylors antics. Im starting to think the guy isnt a full shilling.

Absolute fruitcake. When he doesnt get his way looks to be confrontational. MVG brilliant how he handled the idiotic behaviour. May be the greatest player of all time but a poor human being to say the least.
