Premier League Round 14 Full Ladder

We’re On 13 vs Stray Darters 7 Match Stats

Neither team really at their best but the champs took their opportunities better and ran out comfortable winners in the end.

Aaron (6 140s and a 180) took 6 from 6 and hit a 105 peg while Justin won 4 and hit two 180s.  Dave (3 140s) and Ciaran (17 darter) were top Strays with three wins apiece but Drew threw well going to the decider in each of his singles and hitting a 180 and a 17 darter.

Scorpions 10 Vs Dragoffs 10 Match Stats

The Scorpions involved in another cracker, this time during the all Chermside clash with the Dragoffs.  Eleven of the twenty games went to a deciding leg so a draw was probably the fairest result.

Rod in top form with 4 wins, 2 140s and a 171 with Alex winning three and hitting 2 140s and a 180.

For the Scorps it was all about the return of Scotty who could do no wrong picking up a perfect 6 wins and hitting two 140s.  Pat also going well with 4 wins, 4 140s and a 180 and a mention also to Bob for his 3 140s, 2 180s and 112 peg.

Red Scorpions 6 Vs Peeping Toms 14 Match Stats

A must win game for the Toms and they delivered with a solid 14-6 win over a constantly improving Red Scorpions side.

Sam leading the line honours this week with 6 from 6 and 2 140s and Ross not far behind with 5 wins and 5 140s.

For Reds Glen once again showed a flash of brilliance with a 158 peg and a 15 darter.   Willy leading the side well as always with three singles wins from 3, while Steve hit a very tidy 112

Raptors 9 Vs Aha Gotcha 11 Match Stats

The three Raptors gave it a huge go in the Wantima local derby and were only held at bay by a massive performance by someone making their Aha Gotcha debut… But first, those Raptors

Corey: 3 singles wins, 5 140s and a 180
Dinga: 3 singles wins, 3 140s and a 180
Liam: 3 singles wins, and 3 140s

The only singles games they lost were against a truly elite level performance by The Mean Machine: two doubles wins….four singles wins…two 180s….four 140s…high pegs of 120 & 140 and low games of 15, 17, 18 & 18 darts.  It’s not often we see a triple-double of 2+ maximums, 2+ high pegs and 2+ low games but this was one of those rare occasions.

Imports vs Bye

A bye for Imports.

A GRADE Round 15 Full Ladder

Gremlins 0 Vs Javelins 11 Match Stats

Forfeit for Javelins

Dragons 6 Vs Pinoy Darters 15 Match Stats

It’s a testament to the strength of this season’s A Grade that a team as strong as Pinoy Darters is outside the top 4 with 3 weeks to go.  It’s going to be an exciting run in to the finals!

Connor won three times for Dragons and hit 4 tons with mark winning twice and hitting a team high five tons plus a 140.  Super finishing from Cathy taking out 68 on the bullseye.

Two Pinoys went four from four.  We’re used to seeing Mel (8 tons, 3 140s and a 14 darter) go undefeated but it’s great to see Leo getting back to his best as well.  Roger again irrepressible with 3 singles wins and 13 tons and Edgar also winning three times and hitting 10 tons, one of which was a 129 checkout.

Nek Minit 11 Vs Devils 10 Match Stats

This crazy encounter saw the lead change multiple times and could not have been closer going into the final round of singles: Devils were 8-7 up and 10-8 down before getting it back to 10-all only to lose it in the final game of the night.

The wins were spread around pretty evenly with three time winners being Shaun (6 tons and a 102 peg) and Daz (2 tons) for NM and Steve (6 tons and a 122 peg) and Gary (a mammoth 14 tons) for Devils.

Nemesis 11 Vs Wildcats 10  Match Stats

The Cats continue to do everything but win as they take another heartbreaking loss, this time at the hands of the Nemeses, 11 games to 10.  After taking the doubles 2-1 each round of singles ebbed and flowed but ended 3-all.  In the end Nemesis got over the line 11 games to 8 before the Cats picked up the last two circles.

Dave once again leading from the front with four wins and ton plus scores of 120 and 140 with Mark also undefeated from 4 games hitting a fixture-best 4 tons as well.

Big performances from Vikki, Ness and Shaz on the night.  Vikki (3 tons) won 4 from 4, Ness (3 tons) won all three of her singles and Shaz (1 ton) won two singles from three.

Scorpions B Bye

A bye for B’s

B GRADE Round Finals Week 1 Full Ladder

Jockys Vs Mitchelton Mustangs

First placed Jockeys faced off against the Mustangs this week for their chance to hold their number 1 spot through this season. Mustangs took the lead early with both Graham and Richard taking the win in their doubles and singles matches respectively. While Gary and Clive took the Jockeys only doubles win, the rest of the lads brought it home strong in the singles rounds taking the win of the night with 8 to 5. Special mention to Gary from the Jockeys taking both his doubles, and both single matches on the night, as well as Richard from the Mustangs.

Tossers Vs ALGC

Second place Tossers versus third place ALGC on the ladder was always going to be a tough match.

Tossers took the early lead winning 2 of their doubles, with Father and Son team Rupen and Yash taking the only doubles match for ALGC. First round of singles was hard fought, with both the Tossers and ALGC evenly winning 3 matches in that round. The fight went down to the very last games in the second round of singles, with Daniel securing the win that would have the Tossers reach 8 wins versus 5, and the overall win for the night.

Great performance on the night from Kiana who took not only her doubles win, but also her 2 matches of the singles, helping the Tossers to secure their victory.

Premier League Round 13 Full Ladder

Stray Darters 18 vs Aha Gotcha 2 Match Stats

Every win is crucial at this stage in the season and the Strays picked up another one with a dominant performance against Aha Gotcha at Chermside.

Gabe picked up the two singles wins and hit two 140s while Sean fired in a maximum.

Three Strays went the night undefeated with 5 wins from 5. Dave (4 140s, a 180 and low games of 18 & 14 darts), Jack (3 140s, a 180 and an 18 darter) and Ciaran.

Scorpions 10 Vs We’re On 10 Match Stats

This was the Premier League top of the table clash and the two best teams in the comp so far gave everything in a bid to get the two points.

It was one-all after the doubles and then three all after the first round of singles. Three all became five all before Scorpions won five out of the next six games to open up a 10-6 lead with four to play. John and Justin kept the tie alive and then, with both doubles games going to a deciding leg, We’re On completed the comeback to grab a share of the spoils.

It was largely a tale of two Scorpions with Pat (4 140s and a 180) winning five times and Bobby (3 140s and a 17 darter) four times. Glen hit the other of his team’s 180s.

WO’s MO is consistency and this was on display again tonight with each player winning 3 or 4 times. Leading the way was Aaron with 4 wins, 5 140s, 3 180s and a 17 darter. Three time winners were Pas who hit 5 140s, 3 180s and an 18 darter, Horse with 4 140s, and Justin who threw 3 140s.

Peeping Toms 7 Vs Dragoffs 13 Match Stats

The Peepers had the pleasure of playing host to a Dragoffs side featuring Pat Orreal and he certainly threw some high quality darts.  On the night he won all of his games, both doubles and singles, without dropping a leg and fired in 7 140s, a 180, low games of 14, 15 & 16 darts as well as two ton plus finishes of 101 and 114.  Brilliant stuff.  Next on the honours board was Rowey who bagged two singles wins to go with his doubles wins in partnership with Pat.  Rod  won three times and hit 4 140s, a 16 darter and a 110 checkout.

Ross (4 140s, 116 peg) and Sam (17 darter) put a real fight with 4 and 3 wins respectively.

Raptors 12 vs Imports 8 Match Stats

Massive effort from Raptors, who played this match with only three players and got up 12 games to 8.

For the visitors Nev and Shane both won twice.  It’s worth mentioning all three Raptors.  Top of the list was Corey with 6 wins 3 140s and a 17 darter with Dinga not far behind on 5 wins with two 140s and a 180.  Finally Wayne won 3 crucial games and hit 3 140s.

This win, coupled with Peeping Toms defeat put Raptors level on 10 points, 2 points behind 4th place Dragoffs with 5 weeks to go.  If my maths is correct both We’re On and Scorpions have made the finals but the other two places are up for grabs.

Red Scorpions vs Bye 

A bye for Reds this week.

A GRADE Round 14 Full Ladder

Pinoy Darters 8 vs Scorpions B 13 Match Stats

Two strong teams locked horns at Chermside but the Bs were just a bit too good for the men from the Philippines.

Bs Darryl (7 tons, 2 140s) and Hilly (6 tons) won 4 from 4 and the rest of the team added useful wins.  I’ll single out Grant for a mention for his 2 wins and 11 tons.

Mel once again shone with 4 wins and 10 tons with Roger (8 tons, 2 140s) and Bob (2 tons, a 140) winning twice.

Devils 10 Vs Gremlins 11 Match Stats

A classic encounter at The Brook which was in the balance until the final double was pinned.  Devils were 9-6 down going into the final singles but 4 wins but them on the brink of a memorable comeback victory.  Gremlins Richard (9 tons, 2 140s) and Matt (9 tons) had other ideas winning the last two games of singles.  Both men finished the night unbeaten with four wins from 4.

Ash (who hit a 180, a 140 and a 133) and Steve were in great form for the hosts and each won all four of their games.  Steve especially impressive by picking up the trifecta with a 180, 17 dart game and 118 peg which is a great effort in only four games.  Gary also hit a 99 peg during his two singles victories.

Javelins 13 Vs Nemesis 8 Match Stats

A solid win for the Javs who got ahead in the doubles and never really looked back.  Unbeaten with three from three were Peter (3 tons, a 140) and Bryan (3 tons) with Tony winning all of his singles on the back of some power scoring on the 19’s including one maximum of 171.

Mark continues to shine for Nemesis with 4 wins from 4 and 8 tons including a 140.  Dave (2 tons and a 156) and Ben (3 tons) both won twice.

Wildcats 8 vs Dragons 13 Match Stats

Wildcats were undone by a good team performance from the Dragons who had three players who won all three of their singles games.  They were Cathy (1 ton), Gav (4 tons and 2 140s) and Benny (2 tons) who was the only unbeaten Dragon as he also won his doubles game with Paula.

Tomcat Ivesy hit 12 tons and won all four of his games with Shaz (6 tons and a 160) and Nikki (2 tons) both winning twice.

Nek Minit Bye

A bye for NM

B GRADE Round 14 Full Ladder

ALGC2 5 vs Mitchelton Mustangs 10 Match Stats

The Mustangs cantered into the finals with a comfortable win over the five Links.  (I regret using the “missing Links” joke last week now but what can you do…?)

Dirk (1 ton) picked up two wins and everyone else one with Pieter hitting three tons.  For MM Lindsey (1 ton) won three from three with a troop of others winning twice.  Richard hit 4 tons and a 140 in his two wins and Graham 4 tons in his.

Jockys 9 vs ALGC 6 Match Stats

Jockys sealed the minor premiership with a comeback win against the five of ALGC having been 5-4 down with the last round of singles to play.  Four Jocks won twice with Ian (3 tons, a 140) and Derek (1 ton) getting a mention for picking up their circles with two singles victories each.

Yash the standout for ALGC with three wins and 4 tons with Nicky reliable as ever with two wins, 5 tons and 2 140s.  Despite this loss ALGC finish on third place in the league and qualify for the finals.

Cannons 9 Vs Wanderers 6  Match Stats

Agony at Chermside for the Cannons who finished on the same number of league points as both Mustangs and ALGC but ended up in 5th place on the ladder on leg difference.

Gary (4 tons) won three times and Jason, who raised the roof with a 130 peg, won twice.  Dave (2 tons) and Snow (1 ton) both won twice for the Wanderers.

Tossers Bye

A week of for Tossers, who finished the regular season in second place.

Premier League Round 12 Full Ladder

Scorpions 16 vs Raptors 4 Match Stats

Raptors were unable to take a second consecutive top 3 scalp against the Scorpions.

Corey hit three 140s and Dinga one 140 each winning two of their singles games.  All four Scorpions went well with Pat the pick thanks to 6 wins and 3 140s.  Five wins each for Brian (5 140s, 112 checkout and a 16darter) and BA (4 140s and a 16 darter) and four for Glen (4 140s and an 18darter).

Stray Darters 11 Vs Red Scorpions 9 Match Stats

A real cracker at Chermside with the Reds powering to a 9-5 lead only to see the Strays win 6 on the spin to grab the 2 league points.  There was plenty of good darts on display with three 180s, a 174, two low games and two high pegs fired in.

Reds Glen (1 140 and 2 180s) and newly crowned Premier League singles champ Stephen (4 140s) won three each.  Michael fired in a 174 in reply to Banz’s opening visit of 180 in their singles game’s deciding leg – great stuff!

Frosty, making his Strays debut, won 5 from 5, hit 18 & 16 dart legs and threw 5 140s.  Of the rest Dave (5 140s) and Banz (a 140, a 180 and a 104 peg) won three times and Ciaran (a 140 and a 102 peg) twice.

Aha Gotcha 2 Vs We’re On 18 Match Stats

There wasn’t much AG could do against a classic WO team performance.  Sean (3 140s and a 108 peg) and Gabe (a 140) picked up the home side’s two victories.

The reigning champs really set the bar when it comes to consistency.  Week in week out they put in excellent team performances and this one was no different.  Horse was unbeaten and hit the trifecta with a 180, an 18 dart leg and a 114 peg.  Only 140s separating Justin (4) and Aaron (1) with both men winning 6 times, hitting a maximum and throwing a 15 darter.  Paz won four times and threw a 17 darter.  Each player chalking up a sub-18 dart leg is not something that happens every week – great darts.

Dragoffs 14 vs Import 6 Match Stats

It’s been an uneven season for Dragoffs but it’s a testament to their quality and fighting spirit that they are pulling themselves into finals contention at the sharp end of the year.  Imports certainly got them on a good day with maximums, ton plus finishes and low games peppering the home team’s side of the scoresheet.

Best value Import was Shane with two singles wins and two doubles win in partnership with Jamie.  Nev also won twice and hit a 180.

A really good night for Carlos with five wins, five 140s, two 180s, a 111 peg and an 18 darter.  Rod (13 darter, 100 peg, two 140s and a 180) and Alex (five 140s, two 180s, an 18 darter) won 4 times.  Nothing wrong with Blags’ performance either as he hit three 140s, a 180 and an even 100 checkout.

Peeping Toms  

A bye for the Toms.

A GRADE Round 13 Full Ladder

Scorpions B 15 Vs Gremlins 6 Match Stats

Gremlins were chasing a win to keep them pushing for a finals spot but they came up against a Bs side who weren’t giving anything away.  The home team were solid from 1 to 6 with everyone grabbing at least a couple of wins.  I’ll pick out Tristan (7 tons) and Grant (6 tons) for mentions as they won their three games in the singles rounds.

A good effort from Richard with a whopping 12 tons in his two wins and Matt also won twice hitting 8 tons along the way.

Pinoy Darters 10 Vs Javelins 11 Match Stats

This game had everything; a mountain of big scores, a couple of ton plus finishes and, most impressively, legs finished in the 15 to 20 dart range.

The result was in the balance right down to the last couple of games of singles but, in the end, you could look back to the doubles round to find the foundation of the Javs victory.  The usual classy performance from two of the better throwers in A Grade Mel and Roger.  Mel (4 wins) hit 8 tons, 3 140’s, a 114 checkout and a 15 darter with Roger (3 singles wins from 3) hitting 11 tons, 2 140s, a 180 and a 17 darter.  A really good effort from The Dominator with two singles wins, three tons, two 140’s and a 20 darter.

Lots of people chipping in at vital times in this victory but none better than Peter (6 tons) and Bryan (7 tons and a 108 finish) who each went undefeated with 4 wins apiece.

Widcats 4 Vs Nek Minit 17 Match Stats

Nek Minit kept themselves in second place in the ladder with a 17-4 win over the Wildcats at The Brook.  Wildcat Shaz going well with two singles wins, 3 tons and a 140 with the other circles going to Vickii (2 tons) and Kelly (1 ton).

For the visitors Ngawai (2 tons), Adam (5 tons and a 95 peg), Shaun (4 tons) and Mark (4 tons and a 140) went unbeaten with four wins from four.

Devils 12 vs Dragons 9 Match Stats

Both teams needed the points from this one, the Dragons to push themselves into finals contention and the Devils to keep themselves in the third.  The visitors grabbed a slender one game advantage during the first round of singles which they maintained with 6 to play.  But from there the Devils sprinted to the finish by picking up the last round 5 games to 1.

For the visitors it was a sterling effort by Craig, who picked up 3 wins and hit 3 tons.  Connor (7 tons and a 140), Mark (6 tons) and Cathy (1 ton) each won twice.  Strength in depth was on display from the home team with Gary (6 tons, 2 140s), Christian (8 tons), Ash (6 tons), and Rudi (5 tons).

Nemesis Bye

A bye for Nemesis

B GRADE Round 13 Full Ladder

Mitchelton Mustangs 4 vs Jockys 11 Match Stats

It looks like going down to the wire in B Grade with 3 teams looking to fill the two remaining places with Jocky and Tossers scrapping over the minor premiership.

The Jockys are a quality lineup and when half the team goes undefeated you know they’re really firing.  Top Jock was Ben with a belting 132 checkout and 3 tons but Derek (three tons and a 140) and Pat (two tons and a 140) also did everything that was asked of them.

A thoroughbred performance from Graham who won both his singles, hitting seven tons and a maximum.  Also in the winners circle were Richard and Lindsey, who both hit 3 tons on the night.

ALGC 11 Vs Cannons 2 Match Stats

Six against four became five-a-side thanks to Nandi not only sportingly agreeing to have a throw for the visitors but picking up one of their circles.  Alan picked up the other win and hit 4 tons.

Three from three for Ben (4 tons), Rupen (3 tons) and Yash (1 ton) with Nicky firin in six tons, two 140’s and throw a 19 darter.

Wanderers 3 Vs Tossers 12 Match Stats

Tossers keep the pressure on at the top with a very good win against the Wanderers.  The three home team wins came from Dave (1 ton), Tim (1 ton) and Cristian (1 ton).  Four Tossers tasted nothing but sweet victory. With three wins each were Robert (4 tons), Patrick (one 140) and Daniel (1 ton), with Tracey having a one game cameo and hitting scores of 100 and 150 in the process.

ALGC2 Bye

No missing Links, they had the bye this week.

Aha Gotcha 7 Vs Peeping Toms 13 Match Stats

Things were deadlocked early on at 3-all but a clean sweep of the second round of singles was all the lead the Toms needed.  The winning margin pushed out to six when the visitors won the last two games of doubles.  Once again Ross leading from the front with 6 wins from 6 with good support from Tim who won 4 times.  For AG Gabe picked up 3 wins with Sean and Corey winning twice.

There was some excellent finishing on display as well.  Ross hitting a 156, Corey taking out 110 and Chris B doing a Keith Deller and hitting 138.

We’re On 18 vs Red Scorpions 2 Match Stats

The Reds are not the only team this season to be the nail to We’re On’s hammer despite winning the first game of doubles.  Bright spots for the visitors were wins from Stephen who hit a 17 darter, and the doubles pair of Willy and Glen.

Undefeated on the night were Aaron (3 140s and a 120 peg) and Pas (5 140s) while Justin threw a 17 darter.

Dragoffs vs Bye 

A bye for Dragoffs.

A GRADE Round 12 Full Ladder

Javelins 9 vs Scorpions B 12 Match Stats

The Bs are loving life at the top of the table and this was an important win to keep them on track for the minor premiership.  The Javs are always competitive and this was the case here as they kept things close until the second round of singles.  The Bs won it 4-2 and opened what proved to be the decisive lead.

Bryan won 3 times and hit 3 tons with Luch (4 tons and a maximum) and Peter (9 tons) winning two apiece.  Killer Bs were four time winners Grant (8 tons) and Joe (5 tons) with Hilly knocking in a 180.

Dragons 4 Vs Gremlins 17 Match Stats

It would seem that the Gremlins were dining late this week as they mauled the Dragons 17-4.  The visitors won each of the 4 rounds and were good value for the win which keeps them in the hunt for finals action.  Four from four for Matt (10 tons) and Terry (2 tons) with a mention to Richard who won three times and hit 7 straight tons and 2 140s).

Two Dragons stood firm as Jamie (6 tons) and Connor (a lovely 130 peg and 8 other tons) both won two out of three in their singles.
