Premier League Season 2 Round 7 Full Ladder

Raptors 6 vs Strays 14 Match Stats

The Raptors threw well tonight, hitting 2 180s and 3 ton+ finishes amongst the usual haul of 140s but they ran into a Strays side who, from 1 to 4, were throwing somewhere near their best.  On the way to this comprehensive win the visitors piled in 5 maximums, 23 140+, 2 ton plus finishes and a low game making this a high quality contest.

There were two wins each for three of the Raptors, Corey, Dinga and Blades, and not much to choose between the three of them really.  Corey hit 4 140s, a 180 and a 112 peg; Blades hit 2 140s, a 180 and an 18 darter; and Dinga had a 106 peg.  On top of that Liam hit 2 140s and a 118 checkout.

But what about those Strays?
Dave (4 wins) was in power scoring mode with 8 140s, a 180 and an 18 darter.
Jack (5 wins) hit 5 140s and as sweet a 156 checkout as you’ll see this side of Barney’s practice room.
Ciaran (4 wins) hit 4 140s, 2 180s and a 100 peg going 20-tops-tops.
Banz (5 wins) hit a league best 5 140s and 2 180s.

Scorpions 14 vs Dragoffs 6 Match Stats

Scorpions took an early lead from the doubles but Dragoffs kept them within touching distance for much of this game.  In fact it was only the two doubles which separated them with the score at 7-5 to the Scorps.  It was at this point that the home team lit the afterburners and claimed the last 6 games of singles and the two league points.

A lovely performance by Heals who won 6 from 6 with a 124 peg and a 15 darter with great support from BA (5 wins, 3 140s and a 17 darter) as well as Glen (4 wins and a 140).  Brian also chipped in with two wins, a 114 peg and low games of 17 and 18 darts.

A solid showing from Richard who picked up 3 wins and hit 4 140s with Matty winning twice, hitting a pair of 140s in the process.  Daemon (1 140) and Max (2 140s and a 106 peg) won one apiece.

Motley Mustangs 10 vs Peeping Toms 10 Match Stats

This was one of those 10-all draws that was probably the fairest result as there was only one occasion where a team had a 2 game lead and that was wiped out in the following round of singles.

The Mustangs had contributions across the park with Willy (4 140s) leading the way with four wins.  Steve (1 140) chipped in with 3 wins with Mick (3 140s and a 171) and Glen (a 180) adding two each.

Two Toms towered above the rest with 5 wins each, Kingy and Ross.  It was a quality performance from Ross who hit 4 140s and 2 18 darter and a 16 darter with Kingy hitting 5 140s and a 17 darter.  Sam the other Tom in the winners circle thanks in part to his 2 140s and 2 180s.

Imports 5 vs Bears 15 Match Stats

The Bears are climbing up the table and Imports caught them on what looks like a pretty good night.  Horse especially dominant with 6 wins from 6 and only one doubles leg conceded all night.  On the way he hit 5 140s, 2 180s and an 180 darter.  Azza continues to find form with 5 wins while Pas (2 140s, a 180) got up 4 times  and Shaz 3 times.

For Imports Nev (1 40) won 3 times, James (1 140) twice and Shane (2 140s) once.

A GRADE Season 2 Round 3

Nek Minit 7 V Scorpions 14  Match Stats

A win for the Scorpions tonight despite playing a depleted team in Nek Minit. But to their credit, Nek Minit gave it a good go. For Nek Minit, 3 wins for Hilton (8 ton+) 2 wins for Mark (5 ton+’s) 1 each for Shaun (3 tons), and Ben (5 ton+). For the Scorpions, with some powerful scoring here, made sure of the result by the end of the second singles round. 4 wins each for John (10 ton+s, an 18 and a 17 dart game), Grant (11 ton+s). 3 wins for Joe (6 ton+). 2 wins for Matt ( 2 ton+ and a 180).

Tossers 11 V Cannons 10 Match Stats

Here we go again with a close result….wow  coming into the last singles it was all to play for. 8-7 in favour of the Tossers. Cannons fired off a warning shot winning games 1 & 2 meanwhile games 3 & 4 were halved. Fittingly the last 2 singles went the full 2-1 distance. Great darts to all. For the Tossers, 4 wins each for Tony ( 180, 7 ton+s), Ben (12 ton+s). For the Cannons, 4 wins for Alan, 3 wins for Graham (4 tons), 2 wins for Tom (ton). Great match.

Gremlins 9 V Marvels 11 Match Stats

A fairly close affair on paper however the Gremlins could not quite get it done. The Marvels jumped out to a 6-3 lead after the first round of singles and only had to hold their own in the last 2 sets, which they did. 4 wins each from Ian (8 ton+s) & Neal (9 ton+s) led the way while 3 wins for Nikki (140). For the Gremlins, Steve stole the show with a 180, and 3 wins, 2 wins for Alex (4 ton+s) while Jack smashed a 114 peg out.

Pinoy Darters 14 V Seagulls 7 Match Stats

Pinoy continue their good form this season despite some strong darts from an understrength Seagulls team of 5 players. For the Seagulls, 3 wins for Nigel (8 ton+). 2 wins each for Steve (8 ton+) and Gary with 10 ton+ scores and 2 X 180’s. Great darts Gary. For the Pinoy’s, 3 wins each for Mel (9 ton+, and 102 peg), Edgar (10 ton+) and Roger (9 ton+). 2 wins each for Bob(2 ton+), Luke (3 ton+) and Leo 1 x ton.

Javelins v BYE

 

B GRADE Season 2 Week 6 Full Ladder

Mustangs 5 v The Links 10 Match Stats

The Mustangs welcomed number one placed The Links to their home ground tonight. The Links got off to a good start being 6 v 3 up by the end of the second round and were on a roll with ton plus scores. The Mustangs got a couple of timely wins in the third round but unfortunately The Links were too good on this occasion. Shout out to Graham and Pieter with the hat trick on the night and a solid 2 ton + to back it up. Nicky had a blitzer with the hat trick as well but paired that with a classy 2 x 140’s and 4 tonnes. The Links keep their spot at the top of the table.

Jockys 11 v Wanderers 4 Match Stats

Old rivals faced off again at the G, and the Wanderers came fresh ready to give the Jockys a touch up but it was not to be. The Jockys had a cracker night – especially Newty with a 180, 5 other ton + scores ,a 19 dart game, and a hat trick – look out! Pat and Josh were also welcomed to the hat trick club and overall the Jockys walked away with a solid 15 ton plus scores on the night. The Wanderers took a couple of timely wins but the Jockys were just too good on the night.

Misfits 8 v Dragons 7 Match Stats

What a tight game this was! The Dragons got off to a solid start with a handy 2 wins in the doubles round, and continuing on to secure another 3 in the first round of singles. The Misfits, not to be outdone, were 4 wins up by the end of the second round and it was anybodies game. The Misfits took the first win in the third round, but not to be outdone, Paula kept the Dragons in the race with her win. We’d go back and forth between the Misfits and the Dragons and any one could’ve taken it but tonight it was the Misfits. Big shout out to Michael with 6 ton + and Dave with 5 ton + scores. And the hat trick went to Matt and Dave on the night – well done!

Premier League Season 2 Round 6 Full Ladder

Scorpions 12 vs Bears 8 Match Stats

The final scoreline perhaps not reflecting that Scorpions got ahead early in this one and held a 4 game margin for much of the game before closing things out at 11-5.

A strong effort from Pas in defeat with 4 wins while Horse (5 140s and a 17 darter) and Azza (2 140s) both won twice.

Pat best on show for Scorpions with 5 wins, 5 140s and an 18 darter with 4 victories apiece for BA (4 140s and a 106 peg) and Glen (4 140s).  Brian also had a 16 darter along the way.

Raptors 9 vs Peeping Toms 11 Match Stats

A trademark Raptors thriller for the Wantima derby with hardly anything to separate the teams all night.  In fact the scores were locked level from the start until, at 6-all, PT grabbed the wins on both boards to open a 2 game lead.  They held on to 10-8 with the doubles to come but Raptors made them earn the winner by keeping the result alive.  Ross and Rick were able to deliver the points but it took a deciding leg to do it.

A quality outing for Ross with a perfect 6 wins, 6 140s, a 180 and an 18 darter with strong support as ever from Kingy who won 4 times with 2 140s and a 17 darter.  Rick won 3 times on his return to BNSDC.

All Raptors contributing with 3 wins each from Dinga, Blades (3 140+ scores) and Wayne (2 140s) and 2 from Brendan (2 140s).

Motley Mustangs 9 vs Dragoffs 11 Match Stats

This one started of close until Dragoffs blew it open by winning six straight to move to an 8-2 lead.  Mustangs could only close the gap to 4 games before the visitors wrapped it up 11-7 before MM consoled themselves with the last two doubles of the day.

A good night for Steve who won five from 5 with three 140s, with Willy (1 140) winning 3 times.  Other Mustangs of note were Mick who won 2 singles and Glen who fired in a 180.

Dragoffs getting home on the back of a good team performance.  Standout again was Max (3 140s, a 177) with 4 wins with three wins each for Richard (140, 180) and Matt (2 140s and a 119 peg).

Strays 16 vs Imports 4 Match Stats

Strays too strong for Imports at Chermside.

For the visitors Shane picked up two wins and Jamie and Jamil one each.

A good night all round for Strays with perfect showings of 6 from 6 for Jack (4 140s and 2 16 darters) and Ciaran (140, 180) and 5 wins for Banz (4 140s, a 180).  Kylie picked up 3 wins on her return to Strays colours.

A GRADE Season 2 Round 2

Scorpions 5 v Pinoy 16 Match Stats

Well it looks like the early bye for the Pinoys was a good thing. They came out firing tonight. A big night for Roger with 4 wins, a 180, a 17 dart leg and 12 big scores. Mel (9 ton+), 4 wins and a 17 dart leg. 4 wins for Leo with 6 big scores. Edgar fired in a 180, 3 wins and 7 ton+s. Top darts.

The Scorpions with 2 wins to Darryl (7 ton+s) and 1 each to Grant (8 tons), Cam (1 ton) and Shaun (3 biggies) wasn’t enough to survive the juggernaut of the Pinoy tonite. A rare night and better to come from the season 1 premiers.

Seagulls 14 v Gremlins 7 Match Stats

Round 2 at the Brook, with the Seagulls running out winners over the Gremlins. On paper, they were twice as good on the night. It was all decided by the time the final round of singles was played. Christian had a good night with 4 wins, a 180, a 16 dart leg and 8 other big scores. Nigel was also on song with 4 wins and 16 ton+ scores. Gary contributed 3 wins and 6x ton+s.

For the Gremlins, all their singles wins came as 2-1 victories, so the score line would have been bad, if not for those close wins. 2 wins for Garry on the night while the team shot 25 ton+ scores overall. Not good enough to threaten but glimpses of form.

Marvels 10 v Tossers 11 Match Stats

Another close encounter for the Tossers, but coming out on top tonight. The result rested on the final singles, with the Tossers having to halve the spoils to win. For the victors, 4 wins for Ben (6 ton+), 3 wins each for Mark (4 ton+s), Tony (8 big ones). Pat bashed in 7 ton+s and had 1 win. A good overall team performance.

For the Marvels, it would prove to be the loss 2-1 in the dreaded doubles that cost the win. 3 wins for Ben (3 tons), 2 each for Nikki (ton), Ian (5 ton+), Neal (7 ton+ scores) and Don (2 tons).  Good team effort as well.

Cannons 5 v Javelins 16 Match Stats

Looks like the Jav’s were all business here, over the line by the start of the third singles. But relentlessly, they powered on to win another 5.  For the Jav’s, Tony took 4 wins with 2 big scores, Max also with 4 wins (7 ton+s). 3 wins each for Peter, (5 ton+s), Luch (3 tons) and Bryan (8 ton+). Strong performance.

The Cannons hit 24 ton+ scores as a team, but couldn’t combine these with wins. 8 ton+s from Jason, 7 from Mike and 5 from Tom. 2 wins for Neil (3 ton+s). A hard night, but against a tough team on the night. Hang in there.     

Nek Minit v BYE

Lucky win by Nek’s. LOL.

B GRADE Season 2 Week 5 Full Ladder

Misfits 6 v Wanderers 9 Match Stats

The Wanderers got off to a solid start with two doubles win and continued strongly with another 4 wins in the first round of singles. The Misfits, eager to continue their strong form displayed throughout this season made sure to snatch a doubles win and 2 strong wins in the second round. However the Wanderers would come home with it, completing the third round with another three wins to take the score 9 o 6. Great scoring performances from Mark and Leo with 3 ton plus scores each, and Matt with a solid ton and 134. Snow showed kept his sharp form on point with 3 ton plus scorers also.

Mustangs 5 v Jockys 10 Match Stats

What a ton fest this game was! While the score looks a little one sided this game was definitely fought fiercely by the Mustangs. The Mustangs scored a solid 14 ton plus scores on the night, while the Jockeys scored a respectful 16 ton plus to answer back. The Jockeys took an early lead that the Mustangs just couldn’t quite catch back but both teams had convincing 2 leg straight wins, it was just the Jockys who brought home the bacon on this occasion. The win helped the Jockys solidfy their second place in the B Grade.

Dragons 5 v The Links 10 Match Stats

The Links had a ripper match tonight against the Dragons. Sealing a 10 v 5 win to keep them firmly in place at the top of the B Grade with a very capable Jockys breathing down their neck only 2 points behind. The Dragons had some timely wins with their fierce leader Gav doubles win with partner Alena, and following up strongly with a win in 2 in the singles leg, and a neat 3 ton plus scores to match. Dave, Gila and Elena followed up with wins of their own to get the Dragons 5 games for the night. The Links were just too strong this time, with both Nicky and Yash taking a hat trick and 4 tone plus scores to go with it, and the rest of the team coming home strong to help seal the victory and their spot at the top.

A GRADE Season 1 Finals Week 2

Seagulls 11 v Nek Minit 8

Another great semi here at the Brook. Stung by their defeat last week, Seagulls were out to prove a point and book a Grand Final spot against the Scorpions. Nek Minit was on a high from their nail-biter win last week against a gallant Pinoy. With a 2-1 lead from the doubles, Seagulls fired up by winning 4-2 in the first singles. This seemed to sting the Nek Minit team somewhat and couldn’t match the Gulls in the second singles going down 4-2 again. This would leave only one game standing between Seagulls and a Grand final berth. Nek Minit with a never say die effort, took 3 of the first 4 singles. This was almost a repeat of their previous semi and perhaps saw a glimmer of a chance. Unfortunately for Nek Minit, the Seagulls rallied to polish off the night with a couple of games to spare. A worthy final with both teams performing well. Commiserations to Nek Minit and we will see you in season 2 no doubt. Congrats to the Gulls and now, it would seem, it’s time for revenge on the Scorpions perhaps in the grand finale. Best of luck and may the best team win.

Premier League Season 2 Round 3 Full Ladder

Even though it’s very early, this season seems to be shaping into one where teams that have missed out on finals spots in the past are throwing their names into the mix this time around.

Bears 10 vs Motley Mustangs 10 Match Stats

Without a doubt the Motleys best ever result against this strong Bears outfit at the Brook and one that they had to fight for every step of the way.  Bears got away to great start and cruised to a 5-1 lead but Mustangs immediately got back on level terms at 5 apiece.  From there Bears were able to open up a couple of two game cushions but, again Mustangs kept closing them down.  At 9-all with the doubles to come it would seem that a draw is the fairest result and on this occasion that’s what we got.

Two Bears chalked up 5 wins each: Horse (5 140s, a 180) and Azza who it an 18 darter and a very sweet 158 peg, the highest of season two at this moment, while Shaz added another 17 darter to her collection.

Mustangs had vital contributions from all 5 but none more than Willy with 4 circles and a 154 peg with Stephen picking up 3 wins and Glen hitting 2 maximums.

Dragoffs 14 vs Imports 6 Match Stats

Dragoffs started well and were able to maintain a good cushion all the way to the finishing line thanks to a strong team effort.  Five wins each for Richard and Max, who hit 3 140s and a 17 darter, with 4 each for Gabe and Norths newcomer Daemon.

A solid contribution from Daral with 3 singles wins from 4 with Nev winning twice with a 17 darter and a 103 peg in there as well.

Scorpions 11 vs Raptors 9 Match Stats

A high-quality match that really had everything: the closest of finishes, power scoring, big checkouts and lots of low games.

After sharing the opening doubles Raptors pushed out to a 2 game lead which they held until the halfway stage at which point Scorpions tied things up.  From 6-all onwards every pair of singles games was split one each leaving it on the nine-all knife edge with the reverse double to come.  Scotty and The Machine secured at least a point in a deciding leg shootout before handing it over to Heals and BA.  This one also went all the way before the home team put away the final double and ensure both league points were theirs.

There’s so much to like about this ever-improving Raptors side whose league position doesn’t completely reflect their play.  Corey, excellent as ever with 4 singles wins, 6 140s, a 180 and low games of 15 and 18 darts with excellent support from Blades who won 3 times hitting 2 140s, a 110 peg, a 17 darter and three maximums.

The wins were spread evenly for Scorpions with four each for Brian (2 140s, a 180), Scotty (3 140s) and Heals (2 140s, a 180, 15 darter and pegs of 113 and 102).

Peeping Toms 9 vs Strays 11 Match Stats

A worthy encounter between the top two teams on the early season ladder with Strays able to keep their noses in front after taking the opening doubles.  There was never much in this one and Toms could have grabbed a share of the points in the last game of doubles.  It was not to be as Greg and Frosty laid down the mother of all markers with an opening 15 dart leg of 601.  Frosty started with a 180 then it went 134, 140, 87 and 60 in 3 darts.   To their credit Toms fought back to take it to a decider but couldn’t quite get over the line.

Greg was the Strays rock in this one with 6 from 6, 4 140s and 3 180s with three wins each for Frosty (5 140s, 1 180) and Ciaran (3 140s).

Ross again throwing some high quality darts with 4 wins, 4 140s and 4 low games (1 x 15, 3 x 18) and four wins also for Kingy (3 140s, 1 180s).  Sam continues to show he can be a match for anyone by closing out one of his games of singles with pegs of 120 and 106.

B GRADE Season 2 Week 2 Full Ladder

Wanderers 6 v The Links 9  Match Stats

Old rivals faced off tonight – the wooden spooners vs the team who were equal chance for taking the win in Season 2. The Wanderers settled in at their sparkly new home ground and came ready with their game faces, and the Links came prepared to continue their solid winning streak from last season. The Wanderers had a good start, 2 doubles wins went in the bag thanks to star duos Lance and Dave, and ladies night for Carol and Elyse. Yash and Harsh took their game to the 3rd leg against Snow and Christian though and came away with the win. The second round kicked off and the Wanderers made sure to steal a couple of quick wins to keep the Links on their toes. But the Links came back with a vengeance in the second round, with Pieter, Rupen, Harsh and Yash taking some timely wins. The end of the second round saw both teams at 4 v 4. The third round opened and Pieter took a quick win against Tim, but Dave answered back with a win against Rupen. The scores were level. Game 3 and 4 went a game to both sides too, thanks to Harsh taking his game, and Lance with his. The scores then stood at 6 v 6. With a keenly foccussed performance, Ben and Yash took the last 2 games of the round to seal the win for the Links. It’s the closest the Wanderers have come to taking a win off the Links, testament to both teams for keeping their focus over the break.

Jockys 9 v Misfits 6  Match Stats

Well hello to the Misfits! New to B Grade but well on the right track with 2 wins in a row! Looks like B Grade has some fierce competition joining the ranks. The Misfits played the sharp shooting Jockys, who have consistently held top of the ladder positions in the B Grade. There was a smattering of ton plus scores tonight – both teams probably drilled the triples out of the board. New boards required at the G RSL thanks guys 😉 Misfits had a total of 21 ton plus scores on the night, the Jockys also had a great night with 13 amongst theirs. Notable performances go to Matt (2 wins, 6 ton plus scores), Dan (2 wins, 8 ton plus scores, 130 peg) and Chris (2 wins, 2 ton plus scores). On the Jockys side great performances had by Newty (2 wins, 5 ton plus scores) and new Jocky Matt (2 wins, 2 tons). The Misfits tooks the first 2 games in the doubles round, but the Jockys answered took a double and a quick couple of wins in the 2nd round to keep them in the game. The Misfits were firing on all cylinders in the 2nd round, taking 4 wins and leaving the scores at 6 v 3 at the end of the first singles round. The Misfits took the first 3 wins in the third round, which sealed their win for the night but the Jockys finished the night taking the last 3 wins of the round with a respectable result of 9 v 6 to the Misfits. Looks like the Misfits mean business! Both the Misfits and The Links sit on equal points at the top of the table, could we have a new fight off this season for the top 2?

Mustangs 10 v Dragons 5  Match Stats

Welcome back to season 2 Mustangs! The Mustangs turned up tonight certainly not looking to muck around. Although they were down a player, they made the most of it and fought hard to take the win tonight. The Mustangs started strong, with 2 solid wins in the doubles round, but the Dragons made sure they weren’t too comfortable and girl power double Cathie and Paula scored the first win for the Dragons on the night. Jen kept the vibe going for the Dragons with a solid win first up in the second round, but the Mustangs fired back, taking 4 wins – thanks to Graham with a classy 100 peg, and wins by Richo, Peter S, and Peter K. The Mustangs only needed 2 more wins though to take the night. Gavin and Gila held them off at the pass with a quick win in the 3rd round, but the Mustangs were too strong and took another 4 games that round. Solid performance from both teams, with notable performances from Richo (3 wins) and Peter S (3 wins). Well done to both teams!

A GRADE Season 1 Finals Week 1

Scorpions B 11 vs Seagulls 5

The Scorpions jumped out of the blocks with a 3-0 result in the doubles. They then followed up in the first round of singles with 4 wins. This would prove to be just too far back for the Seagulls, despite battling hard in the second round of singles, sharing the honours 3-3. With only one win required in the final 6 games, the Scorpions wound it up in game 1 to advance straight to the Grand Final. Well done to the Scorpions and all the best in the Grand Final. A second chance for the Seagulls next week, and with a win, could set the scene for a titanic Grand Final. Best of luck to the Gulls.

Pinoy Darters 10 vs Nek Minit 11

What a terrific semi-final by these two teams. An ebb and flow event from the get go. A 5-4 lead to Nek’s after the first singles, certainly set the scene for a real nail biter of a second round. Pinoys consolidated with a 4-2 second round to set up the dynamic crescendo to the final. With a slim lead of 8-7, Pinoy were only 3 games from the win…. But the Nek Minit team dug deep and smashed in 4 wins to 2, securing the last set and the final in the very last game of the night. Well done to Nek Minit and good luck in the second final next week. Unfortunately for the Pinoy, it’s off to season 2. Great seasons performances by both teams.

Premier League Season 2 Round 1 Full Ladder

Bears 13 vs Raptors 7 Match Stats

This one started out close early but with the game poised at 3-all Bears won 9 of the last 12 games of singles for what ended up a fairly comfortable victory.  Bears got this one done with a solid team performance with 5 wins for guest star Glen (2 140s), 4 each for Pas and Azza (3 140s) and 3 for Shaz.

For Raptors Brendan hit a 180 but this night was really all about one player, someone who seems to raise his own high bar week after week, Raptors skipper Corey.  This was one of the best nights we’ve seen by any player in a BNSDC comp and this from someone who started in the lower grades and has been working his way up the ladder since.  And now, those numbers: nine 140s, three 180s, a 114 peg and 4 low games (3 x 17, 1 x 18).  Crazy darts from a player who just keeps getting better.

Imports 4 vs Scorpions 16 Match Stats

Champion teams bounce back from defeat so it should be no surprise that Scorpions had a big night at the Brook Hotel against Imports.  Leading the way was Brian with 6 from 6, 2 140+ visits, a 180, a 100 peg and a 17 darter.  Five time winners were Scotty who powered in 7 140s and low games of 17 and 18 darts and Heals, who didn’t drop a leg of singles all night.  Heals also had a 16 darter, a 180, two scoring visits of 140 and two sparkling 140+ pegs of 147 and 149 – great darts!

For Imports Shane (2 140s) picked up two singles wins from 3, Nev (3 140s, 17 darter) 1 singles win with doubles pairing Jamie and Daral adding the remaining circle for the team.

Dragoffs 10 vs Peeping Toms 10 Match Stats

The Toms second game of the season once again put them up against a team that played in the finals and so 3 points from 4 has to be seen as a good start for a side looking to improve on their 5th place spot.  This was one of those results were a draw was probably fair overall although the Toms did open a two game lead by taking the second round of singles 3-1.  Dragoffs squared it up by doing likewise in the last round of singles to make it 9-all with the doubles to come.  These were shared also with both going to a decider so any result really could have happened.

Contributions across the board for Dragoffs with four wins for Matt (2 140s, a 180 and a 119 peg) , three each for Tony (two “good as a maximum” scores of 171 and 174) and Richard (3 140s) with two wins for Gabe who hit the games highest checkout of 128.

Toms had big contributions from Kingy (5 wins, 3 140s), Ross (4 wins, a 140 and a 16 darter) and Sam (3 wins, 1 140).

Motley Mustangs 2 vs Strays 18 Match Stats

A rare one-sided one at Gaythorn with Strays running out 18-2 winners on the back of six-from-six showings from Frosty (6 140s, a 180), Ciaran (a 140, a 180, a 130 peg and 2 18 darters) and Greg (4 140s and a 115 peg).

Glen and Bruce both picked up singles wins for MM.

B GRADE Season 2 Week 1 Full Ladder

Wanderers 7 v Jockys 8  Match Stats

Old rivals faced off to kick start season 2 for the B Grade at the new home ground Gaythorne RSL, and a classic close game it was! The Jockys welcomed back Josh, and brought on new talent Matt, welcome to Season 2!

The Wanderers started off strong, leading the night 5 v 4 by the end of the second round. Captain Snow and Lance took some solid wins straight up and Christian and Dave followed through with some crucial wins continuing through the round. Jockys took 2 of the doubles games straight up, and continued their planned domination with solid wins from Clive and Newty in the second round. Opening up in the third round Lance took a timely win, but the Jockys would storm home taking the next 4 singles games which ultimately won them the night. Great performances from Newty and Lance who took wins in all 3 games on the night. Clive and Dave also took a solid 2 wins on the night.

With a bit of a shuffle in B Grade and some hot new talent, it’s definitely going to make for an interesting season!

Unfortunately this was a forfeit from the Mustangs tonight.

Misfits 9 v Dragons 6  Match Stats

Welcome to B Grade Misfits and the Dragons! This game looked like a ton fest – look out B Grade.

Misfits got off to a cracking start, with a solid 2 doubles wins in the first round. They continued to lead strong into the second round, where Mark, Matt, Mike and Joey took wins right off the bat. The Dragons answered back with a timely doubles win from Gavin and Gila, and 2 solid singles wins from Jen and Dean to keep the Dragons in the game. The Misfits fired back with 2 quick wins going into the 3rd round from Mark and Chris, and only needed 1 more to seal the deal! The Dragons weren’t going to let the newbies run away with it though. They quickly responded with 2 more wins from Jen and Dean but the Misfits had won the night. Gavin took the last game of the night for the Dragons, and brought the overall score to 9 v 6 to the Misfits for their first night. Great performances from Mark (3 wins, 1 x 140, 3 T), Mike (5 ton plus scores), Dean (2 wins, 2 ton plus scores and a one hundred and eigggghhhhtttyy), Jen (2 wins, 3 ton plus scores). Gila had a cracking 94 peg – GO GILA!

Looking forward to seeing what these two teams bring to B Grade this year – the standard has lifted yet again!

B GRADE Season 1 Grand Final

Cannons v The Links

Tonight was the night of nights! The Links fought victoriously to face off the Cannons again in the Grand Final, just slightly missing taking the free ride to the Grand Final on their first match up. But these 2 teams have been both first and second place interchangeably on the B Grade ladder the entire season so it was anyone’s game tonight. The Cannons fronted with their steady 7 – Jason, Tom, Gary, Mike, Graham, Scotty and Neil and fought The Links with their sharp players Yash, Nicky, Pieter, Rupen, Ben and Antoinette.

The doubles round started first, and strong pairing Nicky and Yash managed to fend off Jason and Gary in the third leg. Similarly Mike and Graham had to take their doubles game to the third leg to take the win of Pieter and Rupen. Tom and Scotty didn’t leave anything to chance though, they sealed their doubles win in 2 and Cannons held the lead going into the first round of Singles. Mike, Gary, Jason and Neil took wins in their singles game for the Cannons, and Nicky and Rupen kept The Links in the game with their 2 wins. End of the second round would see Cannons 6 v 3 The Links.

Yash and Nicky came out firiing in the 3rd round, sure to keep The Links in the game and stop the Cannons from taking an early win. They sealed the win on their 2 games against sharp shooters Tom and Jason. If the Cannons took the next 2 wins though, the night was theirs. Gary and Rupen fronted for their battle, 2 consistently strong players throughout the season, and the Cannons took the win 8 games to 5. The Cannons needed just one more! Graham took on Pieter, both great players in their own right with a penchant for sealing the double just when they need it, but on this occasion Graham was too strong – and the Cannons stepped away with the win!

Great fight by The Links though, who held top spot on the leader board for many weeks in the B Grade season, and who consistently score high pegs, ton plus scores and all around great people to play against. The winners of the minor premiership and the B Grade Final would go to the Cannons – well done lads on a fantastic season and putting together a strong and versatile team – you were just too good this season!!

Premier League Season 2 Round 1 Full Ladder

Peeping Toms 14 vs Scorpions 6 Match Stats

When the Toms added BNSDC Men’s Top 8 regular Kingy to their lineup it was clear they were a team with the potential to start moving up the table.  It’s only week one of the new season but his result against one of the comps best team puts them into the serious contender category.

First mention has to go to Ross who put in a truly great and unstoppable performance to open the new season.  He’s definitely shown the ability to throw greats darts since joining the comp in the lower grades but tonight he put it all together with 6 wins, 6 140s and high pegs of 121 &120 and three low games.  Impressive enough were the 18 and 16 darters but it was the years best leg of 12 darts that really stands out.  Also undefeated was Kingy with two 140s, a 180 and a 16 darter to his name with great support coming from Sam B (3 wins, a 140 and checkouts of 102 and 130) and Sam B (2 wins, 2 140s and a 180).

For Scorpions Brian picked up 3 wins and hit 4 140s and a 180 with two wins for Scotty and his usual haul of 6 140s.  Pat added to the overall high quality of the night with a 17 darter.

Strays 14 vs Bears 6 Match Stats

The BNSDC scheduling computer likes a laugh and it proved it first up by throwing the reigning champs against last season’s minor premiers, now playing as Bears.  Strays got off to a dream start and raced to a 6 nil lead before getting to 8-2 up at the halfway stage and 14-6 by the end.  Most of the damage was done by Frosty (6 wins, 7 140s and a 180) and Greg (5 wins and 7 140s).  Both men threw beautifully all night and finished their contribution with an 18 dart leg of 601 doubles (95, 140, 140, 96, 50, 80 peg).  Ciaran also chipped in 3 wins with a 140 and a 180.

For Bears Horse picked up 4 wins hitting a 17 darter and 4 140s, Pas won twice and hit a 110 and Shaz once with a 17 darter in there.

Raptors 8 vs Dragoffs 12 Match Stats

Both these teams have been busy in the transfer market during the off season with 4 of the 8 players making their team debuts in this game.  Raptors welcomed back Wayne and have Brendan moving up to PL while Dragoffs showed off new signings Richard and Matt.

Dragoffs started brightest and stormed to a 6-2 lead and looked very comfortable at 10-4 up.  Anyone who saw Raptors last year knows they play to the last dart and when they swept the last round of singles to close to within two with the doubles to come it looked as if a trademark Raptors draw was on the cards.  But Dragoffs were having none of it and closed out the win.  In the end the doubles were the difference as the singles were shared 8 each but the visitors won all 4 doubles.

This was a classic team performance by the winners with not a lot to choose between any of the players.  Richard won 5, Matt (5 140s) & Max (a 140 & a 180) won 4 each and Gabe (2 140s) 3 times.  Corey once again proved unbeatable in singles with 7 140s and a maximum to his name and a solid PL debut for Brendan who notched 2 singles wins.

Imports 7 vs Motley Mustangs 13 Match Stats

The Motleys opened up with a solid win against Imports on the back of Mick (5 wins), Willy (4 wins, 4 140s, a 180) and Glen (4 wins).  Despite the final scoreline this could not have been tighter for the majority of the night with both teams in lockstep from the first dart up until 6-all.  At this point Mustangs raced to the line by picking up the five of the last six games of singles to take the two league points.

Imports both Shane (4 140s) and Jamie (1 140) won 3 times with Nev winning twice.

A GRADE Season 1 Round 18 Full Ladder

Tossers 7 vs Nek Minit 14 Match Stats

Nek Minit, after a slow start in the doubles (0 from 3), kicked into gear to win the singles 14-4. Top games tonight included 3 wins by Mark (4xton+s and a 140), Hilton (5 ton+ scores). 2 wins each for Shaun (4 tons and 3×140’s), Ben (9 tons) and Daz (5x ton+s and a 140). For the Tossers, 3 wins for Daniel (7 tons and a 140), 2 wins each for Patrick (11 tons and 2×140), Rob (9 ton+ scores). A great effort by the Tossers in their first season of A grade. Good luck to Nek Minit in the finals.

Nemesis 4 vs Pinoy Darters 17 Match Stats

A big win here for the Pinoys, cementing them a spot in the finals. 4 wins each for Roger (12x ton+s, a 107 peg and a 180) great darts…,Edgar (4 ton+s and a 140), Luke (4 tons) and Dom (10 ton+ scores). 3 wins for Bob (a 125) just missed the big 4 wins while Caleb banged in 3 ton+ scores. For Nemesis, a tough night at the board. 2 wins for Neal (4x ton+’s) while Don (3xtons) and Wes (140) each had a win. Ian (4 big scores and a 140) and Ben (4 ton+s) were gallant. Good luck in the finals to the Pinoy Darters.

Javelins 11 vs Seagulls 10 Match Stats

A late surge at the end of the season by the Jav’s with another close win over the final contenders, Seagulls. For the Javelins, 4 wins for Bryan (5 tons), 2 wins each for Hugh (4 big scores), Keith (3xton+’s) and Max (2x ton+ scores) saw them sneak home tonight. For the Gulls, 3 wins each for Steve (3 ton+s and 2x 140), Rudi (3 ton+’s) and Nigel (3 tons and 2×140). 2 wins for Christian (3 tons and 2 x 140) while Anthony was unlucky with 6xton+ scores on the night. All the best for season 2 Jav’s. Good luck in the finals to the Seagulls.

Gremlins 17 vs Wildcats 4 Match Stats

Gremlins finished off the season with a big win tonight. 3 wins each for Garry (4 ton+s), Alex (3 ton+s), Steve (4 tons & a 140) and Terry (2xton+scores). Jack (6 ton+s & a 140) and Ian (4 tons and a 140) played well while Mark (2 wins and a ton+) and Joe with 2 wins added to the final score. For the Wildcats, Lance was unlucky not to win 4 but played well for 3 wins and 4 ton+s and a 140 to boot. Nik hit 3 ton+s and a 140 and Gila chimed in with a win and 1 ton+. Sad to see you go girls but I am sure we will see you all around in season 2 somewhere. Good luck to the Gremlins in season 2.

Scorpions “B” 18 vs Dragons 3  Match Stats

With the biggest win of the season, the Scorpions charge into the finals as Minor Premiers. Great team darts all season. 4 wins each for Grant (8x ton+s & a 140), Tristian ( 2x ton and a 140), Joe (7 ton+s and 2×140) and Darryl (5 big scores). 3 wins for Mick (5xton+s) and 2 wins for Cam (103,140). For the Dragons it was a tough night by the looks of the score sheet. A win each for Ben (5x ton+s), Mark (2x ton+s) and Gavin (3x ton+ scores). Ash (4x ton+) Cathy (2xton+), Connor (4x ton+ and a 140) and Paula (ton) all contributed. No doubt the Dragon players will be around in season 2. Good luck in the Finals to the Scorpions B team.

Premier League Round 17 Full Ladder

Imports 8 vs Peeping Toms 12 Match Stats

Both sides paying for pride and it was Imports who started brightest and eased to a 4-2 lead early on before the Toms went up a gear taking each of the last three rounds of singles 3-1.  The doubles were shared and the two points saw the Toms catch Raptors on the ladder and actually finish ahead of them on legs difference.

All Imports chipped in with Nev and Shane winning 3 each and Andy and James two each.  Shane banged in a nice 110 peg as well.

Ross finished the year with another haul of 6 from 6 including two 18 darters and Sam won 5 times and hit a 180.

Raptors 7 vs Dragoffs 13 Match Stats

Another plucky short-handed effort from the Raptors but in the end going down 13-7 to finals bound Dragoffs.

Corey reliable as ever with 4 wins and 5 140s with Liam winning 3 times.  Alex and Rod both picked up 5 wins from Dragoffs.

Scorpions 12 vs Stray Darters 8 Match Stats

A dress rehearsal for the finals saw the Strays pull away and open up 7-4 lead only for the Scorps to hit top form and swept the next round of singles.  In this run of four games to nil the Scorpions hit 8 140s and a 180 in nine legs of 501.  The result was still in the balance with the doubles to come but Brian and Pat closed the door with a 17 dart leg of doubles to get their team over the line.  This was a good quality encounter with 34 140’s, 5 180s, 5 low games and one ton-plus peg.

Glen the pick for Scorpions with 5 wins, 3 140s, a 180 and a 17 darter, with Brian adding a quadrella of 3 140s, a 180, a 106 peg and 3 low games (15, 16 and 17 darters).  BA also won 3 times and hit 2 140s and a 180.

For Strays Dave won 4 and hit 4 140s, with Frosty (4 140s) and Banz (2 140s and a 180) adding two wins each.  Ciaran added a 16 darter to the honour roll.

Red Scorpions 11 vs Aha Gotcha 0 Match Stats

A forfeit win for the Reds.

We’re On 

A bye for the We’re On.

A GRADE Preliminary Finals

(1) Scorpions “B” vs (4) Pinoy Darters

The dangerous 4th place qualifiers looked on paper like a potential banana skin for the B’s.  This was still the case when the Pinoys were poised at 3-2 down despite being swept in the doubles.  From there the minor premiers demonstrated why they finished on top of the ladder with a ruthless performance that saw them take 8 of the last 9 games to secure a place in the grand final with a victory by 11 games to 4.

Hilly, Tristan and Darryl unbeaten in three with Grant hitting a 16 darter.  Mel won his two singles and hit an 18 darter with circles also for Roger and Bob.

(2) Javelins Vs (3) Nek Minit

The two previous meetings between these two teams had been close with Javs winning 12-9 at the start of November after Nek Minit had taken the previous match 11-10 back in July.  Despite the closeness of the earlier meetings the Javs were too strong on the night this time.  An early 2-1 was stretched to 4-1 and the home team never looked back from there.

NM stopped the bleeding in the second round of singles by sharing the six games but they really needed to make inroads into the Javs’ three-game cushion.  With the score at 9-6 Bryan and Hugh won their games and put the Javelins into the final by a margin of 11 games to 6.

The wins were spread around for NM with Mar (4 tons) and Blain (4 tons) winning once together in the doubles and once each individually in the singles.  Top Javelin was Bryan with 4 tons and 4 wins from 4 with Pete winning both his singles and Hugh winning in the doubles and two from three in the singles.

President’s Shield: First Leg

Mustangs Vs Tossers

A new format for The President’s Shield with the two finalists playing home and away.  The first leg was at Mitchelton and things were tight with two of the three doubles games going to a decider.  Happily for the visitors they were able to convert their chances and went out to a healthy 3-0 lead.  Three-nil soon became five-nil and from here on in the Mustangs gave as good as they got, sharing the last ten games of singles five each.

In the end the home team’s slow start cost them but the format of the final means there’s still everything to play for in the second leg.  Great twin-win efforts from skipper Graham with 6 tons, two of which were over 130 and Chris who hit two tons of his own.  Daniel taking the honours for the visitors with 3 wins and 2 tons but mentions to the rest of the team who were all two-time winners: Rob (7 tons), Pat (3 tons and a 140), Kiana (1 ton) and Tracy.

Premier League Round 16 Full Ladder

The finals spots are decided with a week to go with Minor Premiers and reigning champs We’re On taking on Dragoffs and second place Scorpions hosting Stray Darters.

We’re On 16 vs Raptors 4 Match Stats

The Raptors finals hopes were ended by a ruthless We’re On side who seem to be gearing up for the finals after a couple of weeks that were quiet by their standards.

The Raptors doubles pairing of Liam and Corey won both of their games with Corey picking up a singles win as well.  Corey hit two 140s and a 180 with the skipper hitting a maximum as well.   Matty picked up the other circle for the visitors.

As always it’s impossible not to mention each of the players from the table-topping We’re On side.  Aaron (four 140s) and Justin (two 140s) both won all four of their singles and one game of doubles.  Four time winners were Pas, who hit three 140s and had finishes of 132 & 125, and Horse who completed a rare double trifecta with four 140s, two 180s, two 15 darters and two ton-plus checkouts of 126 and 141.  Exceptional stuff!

Dragoffs vs Aha Gotcha Match Stats

This forfeit win, plus Raptors defeat at the hands of We’re On, means Dragoffs secure fourth spot on the ladder with a week to play.

Red Scorpions 13 vs Imports 7 Match Stats

The doubles matches were the main difference in this one with the Reds taking them 4-0 with the singles being just 9-7 in their favour.

I think it’s worth mentioning all four Reds as this was a good solid team performance.  Three wins and a 140 for Glen and four wins and a 140 for Michael kept the scoreboard ticking over and powering them over the line were five time winners Willy (3 140s) and Steve (3 140s and a 17 darter).

Standing tall for Imports with three wins each were Shane and Nev, who added one more to his 180 tally.

Peeping Toms 7 vs Scorpions 13 Match Stats

The Scorpions got off to a 6-0 lead but things could have been so different as the first four games of singles all went to a deciding leg.  Had the Toms been able to convert some or all of these chances then an upset might have been on the cards.  The fact that the Toms are making these chances and pushing the top teams hard shows how much this team has improved over the course of 2017.

Brian AKA The Machine was purring along with 5 wins, 3 140s, a 180 and low games of 17 & 18 darts with strong support from Glen who won 4 times and had a 17 darter, with Pat firing in a 102 peg.

Stray Darters

A bye for the Strays.

A GRADE Round 16 Full Ladder

A grade finals will start next week with Scorpions B taking on Pinoy Darters and Javelins hosting Nek Minit,

Javelins 15 Vs Wildcats 6 Match Stats

The Cats were right in this at 5-4 down after the doubles and first round of singles but the Javs hit top gear and took the last two rounds 5-1 to register the win.  The two points guaranteed them second place on the ladder and a tie against third place Nek Minit in the finals.

Two wins each for Vikki (a ton and a 140) and Kelly (1 ton) with singles wins also for Shaz (6 tons including a 110 checkout) and Gila (1 ton).  Nikki obviously had her scoring boots on with 7 tons including a 140.  Peter (6 tons and a 140) and Max (3 tons) both won four times with Gavin (2 tons) and Hugh (1 ton) both winning three.

Devils 0 Vs Pinoy Darters 11 Match Stats

A forfeit win for Pinoy Darters who will take on the B’s in the first week of the finals.

Gremlins 14 vs Nek Minit 7 Match Stats

Nek Minit took an early lead but that was as good as it got for them as Gremlins won 13 of the 18 singles games.  This would be a bitter-sweet victory for the home team as despite the loss NM progress to the finals while they miss out by a couple of wins.

Blain in excellent form with three wins and 5 tons and two wins each for Shaun (4 tons) and Ngawai (1 ton) while Mark hit a 180.

Massive unbeaten performances from Richard, who hit 8 tons, 2 140s and a 180 , and Matt with 8 tons, a 140 and a 180.

Nemesis 6 Vs Scorpions 15 Match Stats

The Bs end season 2 as Minor Premiers with a 15-1 record after a thumping win over Nemesis at The Brook.

All five of the Nemesis wins game in the singles with Mark (3 tons, 2 140s) and Ben (2 tons, 2 140s) picking up two and one each for Daral (a ton, a 140 and a 180) and Banga (3 tons).

Undefeated were both Hilly (4 wins, 5 tons, 3 140s) and Grant (3 wins and 7 straight tons).  The B’s scored heavily all night with 50 ton plus scores for the night.  Wayne must be wondering how he only hit one 140 as he racked up scores of 2 x 123, 2 x 125 and 1 x 135!

Dragons Bye

A bye for Dragons

Premier League Round 15 Full Ladder

Dragoffs 10 vs Stray Darters 10 Match Stats

Dragoffs set a new league record with their third draw in succession against the Strays.  Dragoffs took a 3-0 lead and then were traded until the start of the final round of singles.  Strays won the first 3 games to sneak ahead 9-8 before normal Dragoffs service was resumed and the matched ended 10 each.

Three Strays led the way with 3 wins each, Jack (a 140, a 100 peg and 18 darter), Dave (4 140s and an 18 darter) and Ciaran (2 140s)  with Banz hitting a 16 darter.  For Dragoffs Alex won 5 times and hit 6 140s, a 180 and a 105 peg.  Also helping the cause were Rod with four wins and Blags with three.

This result meant that Strays secured third place as they are four points ahead of fourth place Dragoffs with two games to go.

We’re On 12 vs Peeping Toms 8 Match Stats

The Toms had chances in this one by all accounts but We’re On once again proved too strong, sealing the Minor Premiership in the process.  I say it every week but it’s true every week: WO taking the victory on the back of a strong all-round team performance.  Four wins each from Horse (5 140s) and Pas (1 140) with three each from Aaron (2 140s) and Kingy (1 140).

Ross once again showing he can mix it with the best with 6 wins out of 6 with 4 140s and a 130 peg.  His record against the top teams is really outstanding and his second undefeated showing against the reigning champs this season highlighted how hard he is to beat.  Other Tom of note was Sam who won three times and hit a 180.

Raptors 11 vs Red Scorpions 0 Match Stats

Forfeit win for the Raptors

Aha Gotcha 0 vs Imports 11 Match Stats

Forfeit win for Imports

Scorpions

A bye for the Scorps, who are guaranteed second place on the ladder after this week’s results.

A GRADE Round 16 Full Ladder

Javelins 11 Vs Dragons 10 Match Stats

Two teams with different motivations at this stage of the season with the Javs looking to keep momentum going for finals and Dragons hoping to improve their finishing position.  In the end it was the home team that took the spoils but it’s credit to Dragons that they pushed them every inch of the way.

The odd game of doubles was all that separated the two teams with Dragons leading 8-7 with 6 to play.  This became 9-all and 10-all before Luch (two 140s) grabbed his third win of the night to get them over the line.  A captain’s performance from Peter with 4 wins, 10 ton plus scores, a 105 peg and a 14 darter.

Three wins apiece for Dragons Connor (6 tons and a 140) and Benny (a 140) with Craig banging in 8 tons, two of which were 140s, in his two wins.

Scorpions B 13 vs Devils 8 Match Stats

A high scoring and high quality slugfest at West Mitchy with the Devils storming to a 7-4 lead only for the B’s to grab 6 of the last 7 games and the win.  The Devils desperately needed the two league points to stay with the Pinoys but it was not to be.

Grant on fire for the B’s, unbeaten on the night with 10 straight tons and three 140s.  Three wins each for Joe, who hit 8 tons and 2 140s, and Tristan who added 6 tons of his own to his team’s total of 38.  Leading the way for the visitors with three wins was Gary with another top-drawer performance.  He hit 9 tons, a 115 outshot, a 17 darter and an 18 darter.  Three other players won twice with the pick of them being Christian with 6 tons and a 17 darter.

Pinoy Darters 16 vs Wildcats 5 Match Stats

The Cats came up against a Pinoys who are hitting top form at the right time of the season.  Impressive as ever were Mel and Roger, who both won four from four.  Mel hit 15 tons of which 4 were 140s, and two 17 darters with Roger knocking in 10 tons plus a 125 peg.  Edgar also showing what he’s capable of with two singles wins from 2, two tons, three 140s, a 180 and a 16 darter.

Top Cat was Nikki with two singles wins and 6 tons while Vikki and Ness both won singles games as well.

For all the great darts that went in one of the more memorable moments was a from a dart that just missed….  Bob with this great attempt at catching the biggest fish in the pond.

Nemesis 6 Vs Nek Minit 15 Match Stats

Nek Minit keep the pressure on Javelins with a comprehensive victory over Nemesis.  Adam (4 tons and a 108 peg) and Daz (2 tons) won four from four with excellent support from Shaun who won three times, hit 11 tons including a 101 out and threw a 15 darter.

For Nemesis Daral picked up 2 wins and hit 4 tons.  Of the other one time winners a mention to Banga courtesy of his 5 tons.

Devils Bye

A bye for Devils

B GRADE President’s Shield

Tossers v Wanderers

Well playing the Seasons winners was never going to be an easy task but the Wanderers gave it their all! Tossers took the night 15-0 showing how dominant they have become over the season.

Both Lance and Dave from the Wanderers scored 140s on the night, putting up a strong fight against the Tossers, but it wasn’t enough to bring home a win for the Wanderers

Congrats to the Tossers on advancing to the next round of the Presidents Shield

Mustangs v Cannons

This game was a fight to the last dart. Cannons took the first doubles but then the Mustangs brought the first round home. Ian scored 174 in his double, contributing to the double win. The second round was anyone’s game, with both teams fighting strong and taking 3 a piece. It all came down to the very last games of the night, the 5th and 6th game of singles – no pressure guys!

Peter S and Gary had nail biter, to the third leg. But Peter S took the game and secured the Mustangs win of 8 games for the night.

Well done to the Mustangs and good luck on your next game!

Premier League Round 14 Full Ladder

Imports 2 vs We’re On 18 Match Stats

A one-sided affair as WO romped to a 13-0 lead before Shane, who hit six 140s, added the two Imports wins.  For the visitors it was 6 from 6 for Pas (five 140s and a 17 darter) and Aaron who landed seven 140s and two maximums.  Justin (three 140s and three 180s) and John (two 140s) added 5 wins each.

Red Scorpions 10 vs Dragoffs 10 Match Stats

This was a game with some real wild swings as first one side, then the other, got on a roll.  The Reds opened by winning the two doubles games before Dragoffs peeled off 8 of the next 10 singles games to charge into a commanding lead.  It was then time for the Reds to return fire which they did by winning the next five and edging to a 9-8 lead with two to play.  Dragoffs got it to 9-all, then 10-9 before Stephen,  and Michael held their nerve to bag a share of the spoils.

Stephen had a cracker with 5 wins, four 140s, a 17 darter and a 106 peg.  Three wins each for Michael and Glen.

Alex going best for the visitors with four wins, two 140s and a 15 darter.  Blags (one 140) and Rod (three 140s) also picked up three wins each.

Peeping Toms 7 vs Stray Darters 13 Match Stats

This game was effectively decided early on when the Strays nicked 4 singles games 2-1 that could really have gone either way.  This made it 6-1 to the visitors and they never looked back from that point on.

Ross the boss again for the Toms with 4 singles wins and a doubles win, six 140’s and a 17 dart leg.  Sam and Chris B both hit maximums.

Frosty (three 140s, a 114 peg and a 15 darter) and Dave (four 140s and a 180) both won 4 times for the Strays with Ciaran and Banz (two 140s and a 104 peg) picking up 3 wins each.

Nemesis 10 Vs Pinoy Darters 11 Match Stats

An epic win by the Pinoys who were a man down and 8-7 down with the final round of singles to play.  The forfeit made the score effectively 9-7 but the visitors secured the four wins they needed to get the two league points that keeps them ahead of Devils on leg difference.

Ben (3 tons) picked up the most Nemesis wins with 3, with Don and Dave (3 tons) taking two contested games of singles.

All five PD players contributed plenty to the victory but no-one did more than Roger who won all four of his games and hit 8 tons, 4 140s and a 180.  Bob (4 tons plus a score of 156) and Edgar (a 180) won three times each.  Mel won twice and hit a staggering 18 tons, 4 of which were 140s.  Rounding it off was Leo, who picked up a vital win in the last round of singles and hit 4 tons.

Scorpions B 12 vs Dragons 9 Match Stats

The scorebook suggests that the Bs grabbed a 3 game cushion and held it until the end but the reality is that Dragons actually got it back to 9-all by grabbing the first two games of the final round of singles.  The Bs middle order held its nerve and put the match away with three two nil victories.

Tristan on song with 4 wins from 4, six tons, a 140 and a 16 darter.  Grant (5 tons) and Joe (3 tons) also went unbeaten winning three times.

Unbeaten on the other side of the book was Craig (4 wins, 2 tons, 2 140s) with Benny (3 tons) and Connor (4 tons, 3 140s) winning three apiece.  Paula hit the Dragons best peg of the night with a 2 dart 78.

Nek Minit 9 vs Javelins 12 Match Stats

It’s often the case that the team that wins the doubles wins the match but the Javs turned this thinking on its head by turning a 3-0 deficit into a 5-3 lead.  The rest of the match was close but the first round of singles proved to be decisive.

Both sides spread the wins around.  For NM Shaun won 3 times and hit a 180 with some heavy scoring amongst the two-time winners.  Adam hit 5 tons and 2 140s, Blain 6 tons and Ngawai 3 tons and a 180.  Definitely worth mentioning that Mark hit a 102 peg.

A very consistent Javs showing led by Pete (7 tons, 2 140s) and Max (4 tons) who had 3 wins each.

Devils Bye

A bye for Devils

The B Grade Grand Final saw the Tosssers off to a strong start, taking all 3 doubles wins straight up.

The Jockeys fought back and took almost every game in the first round of singles to 3 legs, with both Patrick and Gary taking wins to put the Jockeys on the board. Both Rob and Daniel were firing on all cylinders tonight, taking his doubles and single win in 2 legs.

It wasn’t to be though, the Tossers brought home the night, with 5 singles wins, seeing them take the trophy for winners of B Grade Season 2 Grand Final for a total score of 8 v 2.
