He’s hardly jumping around doing a Haka is he?
He’s playing the game of his life, I’d be happy too, Pity there’s no crowd there though.

If he was doing a Haka, he'd have done it at the start, and then behaved like a gentleman.

What do we think of that then? Price threw that set away.

He couldn’t continue at the level of the previous couple of sets. It Anderson can string another couple of sets together then we’ve got a final on our hands.

It’s one thing being 100% on tops when the other guy is miles away from a finish, let’s see if he can do it when Anderson is sat on a 2 darter.

That's it. Done.

Bold call. I’ll stick me neck out and say if Anderson wins the next 2 he takes the title.

Never say never, but the odds are well against it.

That 6th set was incredible. 139 average from Price

136 I think it was. The best set ever surely? Unbelievable.

Price has been absolutely fantastic, reminds me of Cross vs Taylor a couple of years back.

MVG acts like a lunatic too at times when he celebrates. Phil Taylor could be a proper knob on the oche as well. Darts has always attracted such ‘characters’. Don’t think Price is any worse than what we’ve seen in the past. What he did a couple of years ago to Anderson wasn’t on but not sure an opponent can have many complaints about his current conduct.

Normally would be in a bar in Dublin watching this, so weird this year.

[Tony Angelino]

Game on!

Price bottling it

Price in meltdown.......?! Could this be a Mike Gregory 1992 moment?!

Glad I never backed 7-2.. would have been sick. Had a fiver at 25/1 on double 5 being the winning double so was nearly counting my money lol

Was a good shout early on to be fair!

[CeramicMX5ND2]

Job done..

[BlackLabel]

Well done Gerwyn Price.

[CeramicMX5ND2]

+1
Even though there is no crowd, players like Price fuel division... which is good for ticket sales..

[ddom]

Well deserved. But still classless.

Sorry yes. I'm going to rewind and watch again now. (Edit:- For the sheer brilliance, not to count up )

Felt far closer than it was. Price should have lost that set, and been against the darts at 6-4 up

Great match. Don't watch much darts - any links to great finals on YouTube (spoiler tags please)

Crowd noise was pretty good, but must have been a weird environment to throw in?

[Tony Angelino]

Best player in the tournament and showed real guts in every round. Deserved the win, shame Anderson couldn’t put him under more pressure but you can only beat what’s in front of you.

Don’t get the hate for him, didnt do anything on the oche that many, many others have done in the past. Previously he has acted poorly but tonight I can’t see how anybody can have any complaints.

Anderson is class as ever.

[BlackLabel]

Poor from Anderson imo - didn’t congratulate Price once during that interview.
