Premier League: Week 2

cling on and that
could be a big

I am forced though, to remind myself of the fact that this is Phil Taylor
that we are talking about, and with my sensible head on I can only see
him rising up the table from here on in. Having now played what are,
potentially, his toughest two matches the Power will be looking at a top
four finish, watch out for the backlash!
Simon Whitlock on the other hand is a different story, the Australian
was ill during the first week, but even after making a full recovery he
could only just breach the 90 mark with his average as he slumped to
a second defeat in as many weeks. The Wizard, I feel, will need to
perform some magic to extricate himself from the dire situation that
he finds himself in.
Adrian Lewis and Michael van Gerwen occupy the top two spots in the
table and with things the way they are I wouldn’t be surprised to see
them there when all is said and done in twelve weeks time, and as for
the middle of the table it is shaping up to be highly competitive, your
guess there is as good as mine.
