@dazi180turtle Doubting one of the goats not to win the matchplay or the worlds. Peculiar.

Kevin Doets will be ranked above Michael van Gerwen in less than 12 months. And if Nijman doesn’t start having TV ability soon a World Cup spot in two years is genuinely achievable. Next year no because of Noppert. Wattimena doesn’t seem to break into the Top 16 consistently.

@Oche180 This may be rlly stupid and trust me I’ve been watching and in and around this game for yrs but how does littler and the top guys not being there hurt his ranking surely he’d have more of a chance of rising up?

Mensur Suljovic has unleashed a scathing rant after player withdrawals and has urged the PDC to 'come up with something' - via Darts News Suljovic said: Players Championship - I don't like this format. "Because of the Premier League, the best players don't come. A new winner every time - unfortunately, this is ruining our rankings. We need a shorter calendar, but the PDC isn't doing anything about it. "Our rankings are suffering because of this. They [top players] have to be there. They absolutely have to be. "The European Tour is one of the most important tournaments - and the major ones. Now nobody's coming. What's the point of all this? What's the point? "Players Championships - okay, someone can always withdraw. But not the European Tour. Luke Littler isn't coming to any tournament. That's just not right. "Our ranking is suffering because of this. We play in England and they don't come to the Players Championships - how is that possible? I can win it… that can't happen! It can't happen. "In my time, in 2017 and 2018, the top 16 always won. Now things are extreme. As a result, our rankings fluctuate - sometimes this player is on top, sometimes that one. I don’t accept that, honestly. "The PDC needs to come up with something." These quotes are translated from his German interview with @nicnacmedia. #Darts

@theedgar501 Gruellich dobey final just feels inevitable

Last minute prep for today’s pro tours Let’s get some vibes going Who wins and who’s one to keep an eye on today

@joshpearson180 Looking like on of the bov boys

Bro did indeed, hard to imagine I know 😂

@MatadorDarts It is until you go through low point and feel like you want to do anything but darts

Is darts one of the most addicting sports? I'm knackered, played darts all weekend. And all I want to do is get on the practice board and try and improve and work on my game 🤣

@itsocheagain Andy baetens gotta be the most overrated player by European fans out there continues to produce absolutely nothing

@WeeklyDartscast @MSSdarts Dave Parletti what a throwback proper player back in the day

Now that Q-School is done, we've had a go again at predicting 128 names we expect to see appear in the MODUS Super Series between now and the end of 2026. Will all of these names make an appearance at the cathedral of darts before the year is out? 😁

@dazi180turtle Buddy England makes up quite a fair bit of the uk players 😂😂 there’s only 4 countries v idek how many available in Europe but anyway it’s besides my point the quality is far better from uk players then eu it’s so clear to see

@JoeB412 And neither do English for all of UK, you can count the entire totals, or use the proxies I gave and account for total entries of English and Dutch at Q-School.

Coulson and Aldridge already proving again that they should’ve gotten a card

@dazi180turtle I’m sorry I didn’t realise Dutch players account for all of Europe

@JoeB412 There’s 200 Englishmen and 30 Dutch…

@dazi180turtle Mate there’s a lot of eu players there.

@JoeB412 At an event held in the UK….

@JJIdsardi No Tyler Thorpe is crazy

The eight players I am looking forward to the most this year: 🇦🇺 Adam Leek 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Charlie Manby 🇮🇪 Shane McGuirk 🇸🇮 Benjamin Pratnemer 🇪🇸 Cristo Reyes 🇳🇱 Jimmy van Schie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Tom Sykes 🇳🇱 Jeffrey de Zwaan

@JJIdsardi Tyler Thorpe gets a card.

⭐️ Here it is: my 29 names for 2026 Q-School. I have more than likely jinxed half of them now. Good luck to all players in the coming week.

@zekiv6 @180Thelaw He’s 1 stage away from last 16 in the champs mate I don’t think he thinks he can win it but it’s more about providing for your family

@JoeB412 @180Thelaw He's had the easiest draws , never does a thing year on year other than clinging onto his tour place. Which if he's earning well then good on him . But he'll never be a top 32 player .

Incredibly annoying result that Jonny Tata seems like a really fun player whereas Ryan Meikle might be the most nothing darts player ever

@vandamvincent00 @zekiv6 @180Thelaw Again I mean that’s simply not true regardless but if you acc get annoyed watching at home somebody throwing a bit slow your not acc a fan 😂 you wouldnt acc care at all

@JoeB412 @zekiv6 @180Thelaw Only reason he wins games is cause he plays even slower then Toylo haha , wast of a tourcard he is

@zekiv6 @180Thelaw Clearly not a waste of a place if he’s getting further than your favs this yr in the champs the BIGGEST tournament of the year. Just because he throws somewhat “slower” then others doesnt mean he’s not good enough to be there

@JoeB412 @180Thelaw Just had a look at it was 85 average , absolutely waste of a place on the tour year on year

@zekiv6 @180Thelaw Averaged above 85 in this game bud

@180Thelaw Boring as fuck R Meikle , never seen him average above 85 , yet the fuckwits in the crowd have got their wish and have to endure watching him in the last 32 😴

@Jaack what are you doing at royal Albert hall

@MatadorDarts @SportsArena51 @LoxleyDarts Consistentcy is the thing that least describes my darting ability so I completely get it havent even olayed more than two events this yr which is a shame but my whole throw broke down wanna get back into it but then I feel I’ve missed so much in my development

@JoeB412 @SportsArena51 @LoxleyDarts Cheers mate, getting there just got to keep it going consistently which has always been my issue

Summer league singles tonight - lost in round 1 against a Suffolk A player in JJ Wright. Missed 2 match darts, kept up with some heavy scoring both hitting 140s and 180s in the decider. Quick turnaround for another tournament Sunday 🎯 @SportsArena51 @LoxleyDarts
