He damn sure wouldn’t be throwing in 106 from 6 darts on his throw for a deciding set, excellent player Clayton just went wrong from a strong position yesterday.
MVG has lost 3 sets all tournament.
The worst semi-final beating since Tipp v Limerick in 2009.
Realistically you are looking at something like the 2019 encounter of 7-3 to MVG
Times the final tomorrow??
8ish id say
Mad how he’s still only 33. If he wins tomorrow which looks a incredibly likely you’d wonder will he still have the built up fire in him to go on a proper run again like he did a few years ago. Gary is finished, Wright looks like he’s declining and he’s getting old. Price has a to make a comeback. Smith can be very hot and cold when it comes to the serious darts. Humphries is where Smith was a few years ago in the nearly there stage. Although the average standard is getting better and better there’s a chance for Van Gerwen to hoover up all round him again.
He’ll bate Smith 7-0 or 7-1. Unless he can take out 5 or 6 plus ton finishes it wont be close. Cant be with MVG winning so many 11 and 12 dart legs. Smith will have been in his hotel room sweating beads watching that.
There’s something very unlikable about Bullyboy but I’d say he’ll make a better game of it than 2019.
Steady on. Van Gerwen is like the Tipperary hurlers. He doesn’t win the big one back to back.
Michael Smith is like the Waterford Hurlers. i.e. never wins the big one.
Ah here! There’s no need for that in the early days of the New Year……
7-5 to MVG i reckon
Best of luck to FOTF @mvg tonight
This is like the 5 hour build up BBC used to give up to the Cup final
