Premier League Round 11 Full Ladder

Peeping Toms 16 vs Imports 4 Match Stats

Toms and Imports are two teams fighting it out in a very tight bottom half of the table and it was the home team who muscled their way to victory to the tune of 16 games to 4.

Sam was top Tom with 6 wins from 6 with four 140s and a 101 peg but Kingy right up there with 5 wins including all 4 singles.  Ross also won 5 times (2 doubles, 3 singles) and hit three 140s.

Nev and Rich won one of their doubles together and a singles each as well, with the latter hitting 3 140s.  Jamie, with a 140 and a 180 to his name,  picked up the other circle with a singles win.

We’re On 12 vs Dragoffs 8Match Stats

First versus fourth, and this result seems to cement both teams into their respective spots on the ladder with only a few weeks to go.
Dragoffs got off to a good start and pushed out to a 6-4 lead at the halfway stage before WO hit the afterburners and won the next six games of singles.  Dragoffs kept the tie alive by getting it back 10-8 with the doubles to come before WO ended the comeback by winning both of them.
In the last few weeks a few teams have come close to defeating We’re On but it says a lot about that attitude and ability that none have succeeded.
Gabe and Max both won 4 times with Max hitting a 100 peg and two 140s.  For WO Horse was best with 5 wins, a 140, a 180 and a 106 peg while Matty won 4 times on the night.  Three wins each for Pas (2 140s) and Aaron who filled all the boxes with 3 140s, a 180, a 100 peg and a 17 darter.

Motley Mustangs 10 vs Raptors 10 Match Stats

You really couldn’t make it up but Raptors, for the fourth time this season, played out a 10-all draw against the Motleys.  And once again they would be heading home feeling as if this was a point lost rather than a point gained given they were 10-8 up with the doubles to come.  But that’s darts and I can’t help feeling that these trials are building a stronger team for next season.

Lots of quality on show in this one with 20 140s, 2 180s, 3 ton plus finishes and 3 low games recorded during the match.  In terms of wins it was Corey (2 140s) with 5 leading the way but excellent stuff from three-time winner Dinga who hit 2 140s, a 180 and a brilliant 14 darter.  Mentions also to Blades who hit a 17 darter and 124 peg on the bullseye, and Daz with a 118 peg.

For the Motleys a cracking night from Stephen with 4 wins, 5 140s, a 180 and a 108 peg.  Willy picked up 3 wins with 2 140s and some real power scoring from Mick with 6 140s and an 18 darter.

Scorpions 9 vs Strays 11 Match Stats

The Premier League tie of the round was played out at Chermside between the Scorpions and Strays who occupied the second and third spots on the ladder.  The first installment ended in a draw earlier in the season and this one was even all night once Strays 2-0 doubles advantage was erased early on in the singles.  It went from 5-all at the halfway stage to 9-all with the doubles to come and every outcome was very much a possibility.  As it happened Strays were able to pick up both of them and claim the two league points which leapfrogs them into second on the ladder.

Big contributions to the victory from Frosty who won 5 times and hit 5 140s and a 180 with 4 wins each for Dave (4 140s and a 17 darter) and Ciaran (a 140, a 180 and an 18 darter).

For the Scorps Scotty(3 140s) won 3 and Pat and BA twice.  Pat hit a 140 and a 14 darter but BA (4 140s) threw some sensational darts with legs of a 15 darter and two 17’s during his 4 singles games.

A GRADE Round 11 Full Ladder

Gremlins 9 vs Nek Minit 12 Match Stats

Once again, enjoyable nights of darts, with a close result, in the end. Nek Minit jumped out of the blocks with 3 wins in the doubles. This proved to be the difference as the singles were shared.

For Nek Minit the standout performance goes to Shaun with 4 wins and 5 high scores. A great game of darts between he and Terry in the second round.  Mark and Daz chimed in with 5 ton+s a piece. Hilton had 3 wins also and 4 tons.

For the Gremlins, after a very sluggish start, got into the match and contested the remainder of the games competitively. Great night for Steve with 3 singles wins to love. Joe almost matched him with 2 of the same and a 3rd leg unlucky. Not to mention a great 121 peg out. Jack and Peter showed promise with 5 and 4 ton+ scores for the night.

Pinoy Darters 17 vs Wildcats 4 Match Stats

An overpowering win for the Pinot tonight and they certainly showed that they can maintain the pressure and consistency, over a round.

Roger motored on as he does with 4wins from 4, an 18 darter and 12 ton+ scores. Edgar was in pursuit with 4 wins also, a 180 and 6 other big scores. The depth of the team was evident with 3wins and 11 ton+s from Mel, 3 wins for Dom and 4 tons, and Leo  with 2 wins and 7 big scores as well.

For the girls it was a punishing experience, on paper at least. Accolades were shared across the team, which shows a fairly balanced team, but outgunned on the night by a relentless opponent.

2 wins for Vicki on the night and 2x 100+ scores, 1 win each for Kylie and Sharon. 6 other games went the distance, so it could have been a closer result. Ton+s also for Nick-5, Sharon-5 and Kylie 6.

Dragons 4 v Seagulls 17 Match Stats

A solid winning performance by the Gulls tonight but had to fight with 7 games going to 3 legs for the Dragons. A solid start with 3 doubles wins to kick off the night for the Seagulls.
Stat galore for the Seagulls – 4 wins each for Rudi & Gary, 3 wins for Christian, Drew & Nigel. Christian had a 180, a 16 dart leg, 5 ton+s and a 96 peg out. Rudi with 9x ton+ scores and a 93 peg. 12 tons+ for Drew, 8 for Gary & Nigel. Solid darts all around by this team.

The Dragons were hit hard early and never recovered. A couple of wins for Gavin and unlucky with 2 x 2-1 losses. 8 ton+ scores for Ben while Mark and Cathy had 4 each. 3 big scores for Chaddo as well. A tough night for the Dragons while being competitive at times tonight.

Nemesis 4 vs Scorpions 17 Match Stats

Yet another solid night of darts from the B’s, hammering home their consistency in the early rounds. 8-1 up after 9 games set the scene for a convincing win.
4 wins by Grant, Tristian & John was impressive while Joe won 3.  9 ton+ scores for Joe and an 18 dart leg stood out while Tristan and Grant had 8 big scores each. A solid team effort here and certainly Grand Final contenders it would seem.

Shell shocked would be a fair impression for Nemesis after 2 rounds but contested with 4 games going the distance on the night. Neil with 6 ton+ scores, Ben, Brendan & Don with 4 each showed some fight. Outplayed by a better team but not disgraced. Soldier on guys.

Javelins 9 vs Tossers 12 Match Stats

A depleted team from the Jav’s couldn’t quite get the job done tonight. By no means a convincing win by the Tossers, it would appear on paper. It is a shame when teams cannot field a full team but sometimes situations are unavoidable.

For the Tossers Patrick and Rob had 4 wins each, while Daniel had 3. A 180, 17 dart leg and 8 other high scores by Patrick was a standout tonight closely followed by Rob with 7 ton+ scores. 4 big scores from Daniel added to a team effort.

The Javelins are running a bit hot and cold at the moment it would seem. An uphill battle with only 5 players on the night. 3 wins for Bryan and 4 big scores, while Peter chimed in with 4 ton+ scores and 2 wins. A good effort under the circumstances by a competitive team.

B GRADE Round 11 Full Ladder

Links 8 vs Mitchelton Mustangs 7 Match Stats

It was a tight game out at the Links for these two teams, and could’ve swung either way until the last round. The Links started out with a good lead, having won 5 v 4 at the end of the second round but it’d come down to the last game in the last round to decide who’d take the win for the night. Great night by the Mustangs, all team members contributing to the wins on the night. Steady performance as always by The Links, scoring 18 ton plus scores as a team.

* Scoresheet not yet received from the Mustangs, results to be confirmed

Wanderers 6 vs Jockys 9 Match Stats 

 

Old rivals faced off at West Mitchie for the last time this season. While the Jockeys walked away with the win, the Wanderers scored their best game against the Jockey’s yet this year. Jockeys unfortunately didn’t have a full strength team but in the spirit of the game Wanderer Christian volunteered to give them a hand for the night, and what a cracker he had, beating his teammates in 2 in both rounds of singles. Even though the Wanderers picked up some extra points, in the end the Jockey’s had the night won at 9 v 6. Solid performance from the Jockeys with 11 ton plus scores overall, and 8 from the Wanderers lifting as the season goes on.

Premier League Round 10 Full Ladder

Raptors 10 Vs Scorpions 10 Match Stats

A great result for Raptors on the face of it but really, this was a case of what could have been and the visitors would have been going home the happier of the teams.  The Scorps won the first game of doubles but it was pretty much one-way traffic after that with Raptors holding a 6-2 lead after the first 8 games.  The visitors were able to close the gap slightly at 8-6 but it looked as if they were going to run out of games, especially when Daral and Corey won their singles games to go 4 up with 4 to play.

In fact three of the last four games, one singles and both of the doubles, went to a deciding leg and it was Scorpions who won the lot to grab the two league points which keeps them in second spot on the ladder.

All five Scorps contributed but three stand out with Brian best of the lot with 4 wins from 5 and 4 140s.  Three wins each for Glen (a 140 and a 174 ) and Heals (1 140) with Scotty hitting a maximum and an 18 darter.

Corey consistent as always with 4 singles wins and 8 140s but Daral really stepping up with 3 wins and two maximums.  Two wins each for Blades (3 140s) and Dinga, who hit a 180.

Imports 8 vs Dragoffs 12 Match Stats

Imports ran Dragoffs close but in the end it was Max and Gabe who made the difference in this match.  Gabe won 6 from 6 and sacrificed any chance of 140s by focussing on 19s with great effect.  Max won 5 from 6 and hit 3 140s, a 162 and a 120 peg.  Blags rounded out the visitors win count with a pair of singles victories and 2 140s.

King Richard ruled the Imports with 4 wins and 3 140s with nothing to separate each for the other three players as they all (James, Matt & Shane) won twice and hit one 140.

Motley Mustangs 6 vs We’re On 14 Match Stats

A solid win for the league leaders in the Mitchie FC derby who got out to a 7-1 lead with the first 6 games of singles all going to a deciding leg with WO taking 5 of them.  This was too much of a hole for the Motleys to escape from despite performing much better in the rest of the match.

Stephen seems to be playing himself back into form after not throwing much over the Christmas break and he chalked up a doubles and two singles wins on the night, with a 17 darter as well.  Willy also picked up two wins (a doubles and a singles) with one win each for Glen (3 140s) and Mick, who showed flashes of what he can do with 3 140s, 2 180s and a 15 darter.

Despite being outnumbered by five Mustangs it was We’re On’s Horse who galloped off with 6 wins, 3 140s, a 180 and an 18 darter.  Five wins for Marshy who hit “only” 4 140s and 102 peg.  Pas won 4 with 4 140s and Matt twice with 3 140s.

Strays 13 vs Peeping Toms 7 Match Stats

Chermside saw Strays finish with a solid 13-7 win over a constantly improving Toms side.

Ross is always a handful and so it proved again tonight with 4 wins, 3 140s, a 180, a 115 peg and two 18 darters.  The Premier League seems to be pushing Sam on and he again showed it with 3 wins, 3 140s and a 180.  Kingy the other the winner with one circle, 5 140s and a 130 checkout.

A big night for Dave who swept all before him with 6 wins, 3 140s, low games of 18 & 17 darts (twice) and high pegs of 100 and 110.   Four wins each for Frosty (3 140s and a 180) and Banz who hit 6 140s and a 13 darter.  A bit of an off night for Ciaran who still picked up two wins, 3 140s and an 18 darter.

A GRADE Round 10 Full Ladder

Tossers 6 vs Seagulls 15 Match Stats

Well another barnstorming display by the Gull’s tonight. 8 up after the first singles told the story. Way too strong for their opposition.

For the Seagulls – Gary and Nigel had a night out!! Gary with 13 ton+ scores including a 180, along with 2 X 18 dart legs…great darts. Nigel had 12 big scores and an outstanding 109 peg out. Christian chimed in as usual with 7 ton+ scores. Overall an awesome team on a mission it would seem?

The Tossers were blown away early in the night winning only 1 game from 11 at one point. A tough ask tonight against the calibre of their opposition team. Daniel provided a highlight with a 170 and 5 other big scores. Patrick fought hard for 2 wins and 7 ton+ scores. Tracy tried hard with 2 tons, a doubles win and 2 singles that went the distance. Good effort team.

Gremlins 10 vs Javelins 11 Match Stats

Yet another close tussle between these two teams. Javelins slipping home in the very last singles match to clinch the win. Well done Jav’s.

The Gremlins did it the hard way by only winning 6 out of the first 15 games. This left the ominous task of winning 5 out of 6 in the final singles sets; eventually falling one short 4-2. A brave effort produced by the relatively unseasoned set of new players in the Gremlins outfit.

For the Javelins – 3 wins each to Peter, Hugh and Max. Overall 32 ton+ scores on the night with a high score of 156 by Luch for the Jav’s….nice darts.

For the Gremlins; 3 wins for Garry, and 2 out of 2 for Terry. Once again, the chances were there, with 7 games going to 3 legs. Would have made all the difference right there Gremlins!!

Dragons 4 v Pinoy Darters 17 Match Stats

A very convincing win here by the Pinoy’s, who are definitely a force to be reckoned with towards the business end of the season.

For the Pinot’s – 3 wins each for Roger, Bob, Edgar and Mel. An 18 dart leg by Mel, along with 8 ton+’s was certainly a standout while 8 big scores for Roger and 6 for Edgar were also of note. 39 ton+’s on the night by the team.

The Dragons were hammered early by a much stronger team however good games by Ben and Cathy helped to ease the pain somewhat. 3 big scores for Gavin and David shows some promise. 12 ton+s by the team with all contributing. Well done.

Scorpions 15 vs Wildcats 6 Match Stats

Once again the Scorpions jumped out of the blocks early and had it all sown up by the third round of singles leading 11-4. A very consistent and cohesive team, as their results reflect this week in and week out.

For the B’s – 4 wins each for Grant, Mick and Tristian followed up by 3 wins for John. A big peg out for Grant of 115 and another good one from Tristian of 99…good darts guys. 39 ton+ scores for the team with 11 for Tristian, 8 each for Grant and Mick and a respectable 7 for John.

The Wildcats didn’t get a chance to settle after the blistering pace early on. 22 ton+ scores as a team.  2 wins for Jen and Kylie (7 ton+s) – showed some fight and supported by Shaz whacking in 6 big scores. Nicky filled in and was unlucky in a couple of singles but hit home 5 tons as well. Keep fighting Girls.

Nemesis 11 vs Nek Minit 10 Match Stats

The second close encounter of the round – this one, going Nemesis’s way. Once again it came down to the final singles matches to decide the night.

For Nemesis, the final singles were led off by Neil and Ian who put the match to bed, winning both games. 3 wins for Brendan, Neil and Ian ensured the match would be theirs. 8 ton+ scores for Ian and two high pegs of 100 and 72 was a standout while 5 big scores from Don and 4 from Neil, were also on song.

Nek Minit must have been shell shocked after last week’s great win to find themselves on the losing side tonight. Despite the great efforts of Ben, Daz and Mark they could not quite reel in the deficit. Winning the ton count for the night over Nemesis was not enough to get the wins they needed. 9 big ones from Daz, 6 from Shaun and 5 from Mark. As in the Gremlin V Javelins match, those 5 games that went 2-1 well would have made the difference on the night.

B GRADE Round 10 Full Ladder

Cannons 9 v Jockeys 6 Match Stats

Tonight would see the 2nd and 3rd ranked teams face off in the B Grade. The game was tightly fought through the 3 rounds, and both teams were in the fight to the end. The Cannons had some strong performances against a not full strength Jockeys, Jason and Mike had 3 wins, not to mention a solid 8 ton and over scores. Alan may have only played in the singles games but he had a strong impact with 2 tonnes and 2 140’s. The Jockeys brought their sharp shooters and played their usual best. Newty had a great night with 3 wins and 8 ton and over scores (7 tonnes and a 140). Strong effort by the Jockeys but they must’ve been feeling the pinch of being one done. The win to the Cannons though does mean that they are equal points with The Links for the top of the ladder. This ones going to be a race to the end!

Mitchelton Mustangs 9 v Wanderers 6 Match Stats 

This night could have easily gone either way! What a game! Mustangs took the win 9 v 6 but majority of the singles matches went to 3 legs, so no side was going down easily. The Mustangs took some early wins which helped secure them the match overall. Captain Snow Royal had a good night on the darts, 3 ton and over scores and 2 wins, just missing out on the third. Tim took a convincing game in 2 and scored a 131 to top it. Strong performances from Matt, with a solid 2 wins, ton and 121. And steady leadership from the Captain Richo with himself also taking 2 wins and scoring a ton for good measure. The two points went to the Mustangs, which seas the Wanderers with a solid wooden spoon performance for the season, but great night had by all.

Premier League Round 9 Full Ladder

Raptors 9 Vs We’re On 11 Match Stats

Corey continues to show his class at BNSDC’s top level with another 6 from 6 performance, this time against the league leaders, throwing an 18 darter and 6 140s along the way.  Blades also chipped in with 4 wins and 2 140s.  Consistency has always been WO’s calling card and it was the same story this week with little to choose between the four of them:
Horse: 4 wins and a 140
Pas: 3 wins, 1 140, an 18 darter and a 104 peg
Aaron M: 3 wins, 3 140s, 2 18s and an 18 darter
Aaron W: 3 wins, 2 140s, a 119 peg

Peeping Toms 11 vs Dragoffs 9 Match Stats

The Toms pulled off the upset of the season with a nail-biting win by the narrowest of margins.  Dragoffs eased out to a 2-0 lead after the doubles and things looked ominous when they extended that to 5-1 early on.  The Toms kept hauling themselves back into the match until they finally took the lead by moving from 7-all to 9-7 up.  This two game lead proved top be decisive but it took the penultimate game of doubles to get them to 11 and secure the two league points.

This win, plus defeats of the other three sides in the bottom half sees the Toms go from 8th to 5th on the ladder, five points off the 4th finals berth.

Sam had his best performance of the season chalking up 5 wins, including all 4 of his singles, and hitting 3 140s and a 17 darter.  Ross, as always, in the thick of it with 4 wins (1 doubles, 3 singles) with 2 140s and an 18 darter.

A big effort in defeat from Rod who won 5 times (2 doubles, 3 singles) with Blags (3 140s) next best with 3 wins.  Max won twice and hit 2 140s, a 180 and a 130 peg.

Scorpions 16 vs Imports 4 Match Stats

A full strength Scorpions side, which this was, is a fearsome proposition and so it proved for Imports who went down 16 games to 4 at Chermside.

Nev pick of the Imports with 2 wins, doubles with James and a singles with 3 140s.  Singles wins also for Shane and Richard.

You can probably tell from the scoreline that all the Scorps had a big night…  Notable mentions go to BA, who played only in the singles and won all 4 with a 140 and a maximum; Scotty who won 5 from 5; and Brian who threw 4 140s and an 18 darters in his three victories.

Strays 13 vs Motley Mustang 7 Match Stats

Banz was away this week so the Strays were helped out by Ciaran’s mate Greg who contributed straight away with a doubles win.  From there it was the regulars who ensured the team kept up the pressure at the top of the table.  A fully-rested Dave showed what he can do with 6 wins from 6, 4 140s, a 100 peg and an 18 darter with 5 wins from Frosty who powered in 2 140s, a 180 and low games of 18 and 17 darts.  Ciaran rounded out the night with 4 wins, 4 140s and a 180.

All the Motleys contributed but it was not quite enough to come away with the points.  Glen (1 140), Willy (3 140s) and Stephen all won twice with Mick (2 140s) and Bruce (1 140) picking up a win each.

A GRADE Round 9 Full Ladder

Nek Minit 16 v Tossers 5 Match Stats

A great team effort by Nek Minit right across the board. With a big 6-0 win the second round of singles they sealed the night. 3 single wins 2-0 to Mark and Hilton, and supported throughout the team with 10 wins between them.

Despite their best efforts, the Tossers were outplayed here tonight by a stronger team effort. Great efforts by Patrick & Daniel 9 T+s, and Rob chipping in with 7 ton +s.

Pinoy Darters 13 v Nemesis 8 Match Stats

All the damage done early on by the Pinoy’s to lock it up after the second round of singles. 4 wins for Roger and only 7 ton+s tonight?? Great peg from Edgar of 114. A tough team to play as their consistency across the team is great – 32 t+’s & 9, 2-0 wins.

Tough night for Nemesis against a form team. Ian and Neal were the standouts with 3 wins and 9 ton+s each. A 116 peg for Neal as well. A fair scoreline against those guys.

Dragons 6 v Scorpions “B” 15 Match Stats

For one of the form teams of the grade, Scorpions B: 4 wins each for John, Tristan and Grant. 115 peg for Grant, great score of 174 for Shawn and a 19 dart leg and a 180 for John. Great darts right there.

A courageous effort by the Dragons:

Connor played very well for the Dragons winning 3 and a 2-1 loss in the fourth. 2 x 140’s and 10 other ton+s. A high score of 130 for David & a 121 for Ben.

A tough night for the Dragons but no disgrace going down to the B’s in top form at the moment.

Seagulls 15 v Javelins 6 Match Stats

Flying high at the moment, the Gulls, with another solid all round team effort. 4 wins for Gary and 11 ton +s while Nigel threw a 16 darter and 11 ton +s for 4 wins as well. Rudi, not to be outdone, smashed a 180 and had 3 wins.

Javelins didn’t seem to be able to get into it tonight but were not disgraced – Another top effort from Peter with 5 ton +s and 2 x 2-0 singles wins. No doubt this team will bounce back.

Wildcats 9 v Gremlins 12 Match Stats

What a great night was had by all …. the match was finally over about 2240hrs.

Unfortunately the Wildcats were a player short so rule 45c was put into play by agreeance of both captains.

A real close match, which started out well for the Gremlins winning all 3 doubles. Kylie did well on her own in the third doubles.

The first round of singles favoured the Gremlins 5-1. The second round was a great comeback by the girls to win all 6. So it was virtually down to the last singles to decide the night with Gremlins hanging on to win 12 games to 9.

Some great darts thrown which included:

For the Wildcats: 100 checkout for Kylie and a 16 dart game. An 18 darter by Shaz and 3 singles wins. 22 tones and over, for the team.

For the Gremlins: A 98 peg by Steve was nice to watch. 7 ton +s for Joe. 20 tons and up by the team. Was a great effort by the Gremlins with all contributing equally.

A long night but 14 games went the full distance 3-2.

B GRADE Round 9 Full Ladder

The Links 4 v Cannons 11 Match Stats

Well ladies and gentlemen, this was the game to see. The top 2 teams in B grade faced off for what was a much closer fight then the scores reflect. The Links still reign supreme as top of the ladder, but with the Cannons win this week, they are only 2 points away from leveling the playing field. Not to mention, the 2nd and 3rd are hotly contested themselves, so this is going to down to the wire. The Cannons showed up full strength, reserves, and some gunpowder- they were well and truly ready to roll. All was fairly even heading into the second round, and The Links made sure that the majority of wins did not go down in 2. And to be fair, the night was undecided until the middle of the 3rd round, but it was hotly contested all the way and The Links could easily have stormed back and taken the games in 2nd and 3rd rounds. But it wasn’t to be. The Links had some strong performances, Nicky – 6 T+ scores incl 180 & 2 wins, Bev with a stellar 9 T+ scores, Rupen and Yash with a pair of tonnes each. On the Cannons side, Mike had a great night, 7 T+ scores & 3 wins, Graham with a classy 2 T+s and 2 wins, Jason with a steady 3 tons and 2 wins. These teams will face each other off one more time before the final, what will the result be next time?

Jockeys 12 v Mitchelton Mustangs 3 Match Stats 

Well haven’t the Jockeys kept up their strong form with a solid win over the Mustangs 12 v 3. They came strong out the gate taking all 3 doubles games in the first round, and followed it up with 4/6 wins in the first singles round. The Mustangs took their first win middle of the second round thanks to Lindsey, and Nik followed it up to keep the Mustangs in the game, but alas it was all over in game 1, round 3. The Jockeys would take all singles games in the third round bar one! Good on you Nik, can’t let them have them all can we? Fantastic effort by all team members of the Jockeys – every member took a game win. Ultra classy performance as always by Newty and Ben, both with 8 T plus scores, 3 wins.  The Mustangs brought their sharp shooters for the night – Lindsey with a solid 7 T plus scores. The Jockey’s were too strong this time, but let’s see if the Mustangs can bounce back!

Premier League Round 8 Full Ladder

Scorpions 15 vs Peeping Toms 5 Match Stats

The five Scorpions piled up the wins and put themselves in second place on the ladder after We’re On ended Strays unbeaten run.

Glen won all 5 of his games with Brian (4 140s) and Scott (2 140s and a 107 peg) winning 4 times.  Bob had the best leg of the match with an 18 darter.

Three of the Toms picked up two wins on the night: Ross (2 140s) and Sam (1 140 and a 180) both won a doubles and a singles while Justin (3 140s) won two of his singles.

Dragoffs 11 vs Raptors 9 Match Stats

A cracker at Chermside which could really have ended in any of the three possible results.  With the match poised at 4-all Dragoffs pushed out to a 9-5 lead but it’s worth noting that the home side won 4 of those games in the deciding leg.  Even when they were on the brink the Raptors kept fighting, hauling themselves into contention at 10-8 down with the doubles to come.  Sadly the comeback fell short as Carlos (3 wins, 1 140) and Gabe (3 wins, 4 140s) stayed strong to grab the two league points that keeps them securely in 4th on the ladder.

The two remaining Dragoffs worthy of a mention with Blags winning 3 but Max best of the bunch with 4 wins and a massive seven 140s!

Once again Corey untouchable with 6 wins from 6, 3 140s, 2 180s and a 16 darter and Blades showing real Premier League class with 4 wins.  Nothing wrong with Dinga’s scoring as he fired in 3 140s and 2 180s.

We’re On 11 Vs Strays 9 Match Stats

We’re On ended Strays unbeaten start to the season with an 11-9 win at Mitchy FC.  As was the case earlier in the season the reigning minor premiers went out to a useful lead but this time they were able to close it out for the win that keeps them top of the table.

Aaron M threw good darts all night with 5 wins, 4 140s, a 180 and an 18 darter plus back to back 17 darters.  Horse fired in 8 140s and a 15 darter and Pas a 140 and a 15 darter with both men winning three times.

For Strays Frosty and Ciaran (7 140s, 16 darter) both won 4 times.  Dave, coming straight from the airport after a day working down in Melbourne, hit 3 140s, a 180 and low games of 18 and 17 darts before running out of steam.

Motley Mustangs 12 vs Imports 8 Match Stats

This result keeps things super tight in the lower half of the table with the bottom 4 teams separated by only a point.  With 6 weeks to go any one of them could make a push for finals contention but they will probably need to make a move soon.

Putting future events aside, this was a great win for the Motleys thanks in no small part to the efforts of Mick who won 5 from 5 and banged in 2 140s.  Willy also played a huge role with 4 wins from 5 and 2 140s.

Nev won 4 from 5 with 1 140 and Shane three times with 2 140s and the best finish of the night, a very tidy 122.

A GRADE Round 7 Full Ladder

Scorpions 18 vs Tossers 3 Match Stats

A big win for the B’s at home. John Ives showed his class with 3 wins, a 156, 18 darts and 16 dart games and 5 other ton up scores. Good darts for a Pom!!! All players seemed to strut their stuff on the night with Mr Hill winning 4 games, Shaun with a 160 and 3 wins, Grant determined as ever with 4 wins and 9 big scores, Tristan on song with 4 wins and 7 biggies and Joe helping out with 2 wins and 6 tons. An all-round sound team performance and will be hard to topple.

Poor old Tossers were put to the sword by a team on fire on the night. 23 Ton +’s by the team and highlighted by a win each to Patrick,9 big ones, Rob with 6 high scores and Daniel with 6 of the best.

Pinoy Darters 10 vs Nek Minit 11 Match Stats

Wow what a game of darts this must have been….the scorers and scribes were flat out by the looks of it. 81 tons or better from 2 evenly matched teams on the night.

For the Pinoy team Roger stood out again with 4 wins, a 180, an 18 dart leg and 15 other ton + scores. Great darts Roger. Other good games by Mel, 10 tons, Dom with 6 tons and 2 wins. A great first set of singles taking all 6 games but losing the second set by 5… oopsi….and then had to try and hold off a surge by Nek’s in the last set.

A game of two halves by Nek Minit saw a see-sawing affair in the first two singles rounds. A great fight back in the final singles just got it done. Daz had a 110 peg while Shaun pipped him with a 120 check out. Both top shots. All round a great team performance with 40 ton +s.  Mark & Danny with 8, Ben and Shaun with 7, Hilton and Daz with 5, while Ngawai was too busy keeping score it would appear!!!

Great round of darts by both teams.

Javelins 15 vs Dragons 6 Match Stats

Javelins jumped out of the blocks with 3-0 in the doubles and then 4 and 5 sets in the singles to seal the night. Peter continues to impress with 4 wins, a 180, and 7 other big scores. Tony chimed in with 3 singles wins while Luch and Brian had 2 wins each. A good solid match by the looks of it.

So it was the Paula and Connor show for the Dragons…. 6 ton +s and 2 wins for Paula while Connor smashed in 7 big scores and 3 x 2 nil singles wins. Mark had a 174 – well done, and Ben 3 big ones. Hard to overcome a solid team performance by the Jav’s though.

Gremlins 4 vs Seagulls 17  Match Stats

The gulls to strong tonight with a very sound win. 2 X 6-0 singles certainly put paid to any chance for the Gremlins. Standouts were Nigel with 11 ton+ scores and 4 wins, Christian with 8 x ton + scores and 4 wins, Gary had 3 wins and 7 biggies and Rudi chimed in with 8 ton + scores.

Gremlins were well off their best against a strong team here and did well not to lose by more. Steve had a night out with 8 tons but still couldn’t win a game…. Tough games. The newest member of the Gremlins, Garry seemed to fit in fairly well and will be an asset to the team in the future. Terry, in his only singles game of the night, had 4 tons and most importantly, defeated Anthony 2-0. Was a good night but for the result for the Gremlins.

Wildcats 9 vs Nemesis 12 Match Stats

Nemesis were down after the doubles but took 8 out of first 12 games of singles for a three game margin which they held until the end.  It was a solid team performance that got the job done from Nemesis but Ian (6 tons a 140) and Neil (3 tons) led the way with three wins apiece.  Two wins each for Ben (4 tons), Brendan (4 tons) and Alena.

For Wildcats Kylie again best of the lot with 4 wins and 4 tons with two wins for Nikki and Shaz, who hit 11 tons along the way.

The Links 8 v Jockeys 7 Match Stats 

B Grade was definitely the place to be for some firecracker matches this week! The Jockeys fronted up to The Links prepared to deprive them of the chance to extend their lead in first place. And boy was it close! The Links kept their number one place though in B Grade after this round, and still proving to be top contenders for final season! The Jockeys got off to a great start though taking the first 2 doubles games, and followed with another quick 3 wins in the second round. Newty had a killer night taking his doubles, and the following 2 singles – what a champion! And Thommo helped the Jockeys advance with 4 tonnes including a 140, and the all important 2 wins including the first game in the third round. However, after that The Links come out with a vengeance! 4 wins went to father and son Kruger, with Rupen and Ben to follow. Newty kept The Jockeys in the fight, but it would come down to the last game between Ben and Brewster. The Links were just too good on the night, taking the 2 points and retaining their premiership position. Come on B Grade? Who’s going to take the 2 points from these guys?
