It's the closing day of the World Cup of Darts with all but one seeded nation through to the quarter-finals in Frankfurt.
The only unseeded nation left in Canada face number 4 seeds Northern Ireland in the opening fixture of the afternoon session. John Part managed to revive the spirit of 2003 by delivering a brutal 161 checkout and then a 76 finish to eliminate Wales. Ken MacNeil has also impressed in the tournament, and what with Brendan Dolan's performances recently being utter shit, there's definitely potential for another seed to be eliminated.
The winner of the opening fixture will play the winner of the second fixture in the semifinals with England (read: Stoke) playing "Austria". While Phil Taylor was unconvincing against Liu Yuanjun and Adrian Lewis was professional against the ABSOLUTE MADMAN of Wenge Xie, Mensur Suljovic and Rowby-John Rodriguez far outclassed them in their 2-0 defeat of Singapore, but you just know this will be the day when Taylel actually plays for once and ruins everything yet again.
In the bottom half of the draw, two nations who have had vastly different tournaments collide as Scotland take on Belgium. The Huybrechts have only dropped a total of three legs all tournament, while Gary Anderson and Robert Thornton have had to fight back from 3-1 down against New Zealand in the first round before Gando had to take out 160 just to beat Cor Dekker in the singles. Will the Belgian team spirit or the Scottish resilience prevail?
Closing the afternoon are the Netherlands and Australia. While Michael van Gerwen and Raymond van Barneveld haven't really been pushed in this tournament, Kyle Anderson nearly embarrassed his country by forgetting how to finish in his singles match against Per Laursen, meaning Simon Whitlock had to rescue his partner YET AGAIN. You would think not having Paul Nicholson in the side would improve them, but it appears not to be the case.

Why do I even bother watching sometimes.
From TDF once again:
>mensur wouldnt miss if he imagined those doubles were a Croatian villagers head and his dart was his AK47
On the plus side, Poois in this tournament is anything but consistent or good, but still i dont see Rowby beating him unless his high scoring game comes out.
C'mon Rowby
>>68132254
Rowby has beaten Fatpot before, back at the 2014 Grand Slam.
However the Fat Man smacked RJR 6-1 in their last meeting, which was in a UK Open qualifier.
>>68132289
He's impressed me in a few TV comps, he has a decent scoring game in him and never looks phased which i like - but ive seen him go missing as well, which Snackpot if he keeps this up will punish.
>>68132341
Last few months Rodriguez has been abysmal.
He looks to have got his confidence back with this tournament.
rowdy roddy is far too attractive and it makes me uneasy
>ladyboy
Fucking hell.
R I P R J R
OH SNAP THAT LEWIS 117
England lose their first leg after 15 successive without reply in the singles.
stokewinslol
Great performance from Fatpot though. More like that in the ranking events and he might actually win something outside of the Worlds.
>England vs Northern Ireland
eww
>>68132574
>most likely Taylor v Dolan
Who wants to watch that?
>>68132602
Who wants to watch either England or Norn Iron in the first place?
>he was a world champion there, rodriguez
That's fucking cruel, Phil.
>>68132373
I dont remember when i last saw him playing decent, pretty sure he was looking reasonable in a TV tournmament around the time of Worlds, cant remember which, or even if im thinking of his match against against Chizzy (which he lost 3-0). There are more than a few younger lads (Gurney, Van de Pas, Max Hopp, Reyes, Snackpot 2, Jamie Lewis) out there who seem to have latter stages of a tournament potentially in them. I just wonder how many of these will still be in here in 5 years time. Hopefully all of them and more, as for the most part theyre more enjoyable to watch than the old school, tried and tested jobber's (your Painter's and Hamilton's etc.).
>>68132764
>pretty sure he was looking reasonable in a TV tournmament around the time of Worlds, cant remember which, or even if im thinking of his match against against Chizzy (which he lost 3-0).
Yeah, it must have been that match. Didn't deserve to lose 3-0 in it.
>as for the most part theyre more enjoyable to watch than the old school, tried and tested jobber's (your Painter's and Hamilton's etc.).
Definitely. They're also not as scared of the big names as that lot are.
>waffleboy
Hi all, just arrived home, what did I miss?
>>68132995
Part being good but his partner having a breakdown means that Norn Iron goes on, and Stoke was in rape mode as usual.
>>68132995
Part beat Dolan and then MacNeil had a mental breakdown to lose his singles and then collapsed in the doubles to give the match to Northern Ireland
Taylor and Lewis easily beat Suljovic and Rodriguez.
>>68132602
What makes it even worse is that Dolan is an honorary member of the pocket club
