An exhibition by Deta there. Incredible on the doubles.
Dennis Harbour perfect on his doubles takes the first set with a clean sweep.
His slow pace has definitely unsettled The Silencer, who’ll be disappointed with his opening visit of 9 to start the second set.
Ooh, there’s a 140 check out by The Harbour Master.
Dennis is averaging over 104. I haven’t seen him play this well since he beat Duzza 6-5 in the 2014 Scottish Open.
Another whitewash in set 2 and Jeff really needs the break to compose himself here.
Harbour very impressive alright.
He must be murder to play against with his slow pace of play.
Jeff has woken up.
A 124 check out with accompanying bull finish to break in the third. He’s throwing for the set now.
A 2-dart 68 finish seals the set.
We’ve got a game on our hands now.
It’s always funny to see a machine gunner wait his turn against a musket bearer.
2 sets apiece. Jeff is flinging some very good arrows here.
Sad to post, but it appears that Tony Green is in the early stages of senility / dementia.
Pole position now, fuckin hell, what a turnaround.
Jeff has turned this game on its head. He’s taken all 3 sets in this mini-session and now leads 3-2.
Give me a senile Tony Green over any of the Sky commentary team* any day.
*With the exception of the superb John Part.
Yes, Tony has been through the mill in recent years. He’s 76 now.
For the week that’s in it, Channel 145 (Challenge) are showing old episodes of Bullseye. Tony was an absolute colossus back then in his Bullseye days.
Despite being 3-2 down Dennis will still harbour hopes of going through here.
4-2 to Jeff.
Smithy one leg away.
The Harbourmaster escapes, for now. He’s been a master of escapology at Lakeside over the years.
The Harbourmaster is finally Silenced. He can drown his sorrows now.
A 5-2 victory for Canada’s Jeff Smith.
Tall order for our Aileen here. Trina looks hell bent on getting her tenth.
The lakeside stage getting to the 9 time champion there.
