Matchplay quarters

First things first, let's all hope Cameron's alright. It seems from what the PDC posted is that he's OK, so that's good to hear. We've had some great stuff, punts went fantastically, so let's look at the quarters.

van Duijvenbode/Anderson - 33/31/33/32
Littler/Rock - NA/91/86/89
Smith/Price - 52/28/28/36
van Veen/Wade - 32/62/71/55

Oh my god what an absolute shitshow those projections are. The only one that is remotely consistent is the Dirk game, and it's kind of concerning with that "after 12 legs I get bored" interview thing. Unless he was just taking the piss, which is possible. Then again, we're getting to an extended game, and while we've seen Anderson is still capable of handling it, it's not a given. Littler won't have a short data set until the final, but he's projected to absolutely kick the shit out of Rock, which is fine as he should kick the shit out of everyone, but this level of favouritism is kind of wow. The Price one is kind of a repeat, his short data is limited but not great, while the van Veen one is also a bit of a repeat, in that his latter form has not been pretty, but taking out Nijman as he did is certainly promising. That'll do us until the semis.
