Andy 'the Viking' Fordham did not impress Bobby

Barney is a good player but he doesn't like it when the chips are down.

Barneveld really doesn't like it when he is having to fight against the pressure.

I think I would tip Hankey because it is a much longer game now.

Nine sets is a different kettle of fish and Hankey will probably cope better with that.

But they have both won it before so they know exactly what is required of them to get there and do it again.

Against Kevin Painter, Matt Clark didn't play as well as he did in the previous round - he was all over the shop really.

The first two sets were very scruffy and even Painter didn't play well early on - you could say he was up and down like a paint brush.

Matt never got going till the fourth set when both their averages came up.

Bobby rates Hankey highly

As for Steve Beaton he is a very fast player, but for some reason he slowed up against Barneveld.

Barneveld is not slow, but Steve had loads and loads of darts at a double in the first set.

Beaton slows

He actually won that first set, but it took a lot of energy out of him - he is not the sort of player who usually misses so many doubles.

What fascinated me with Beaton was that he stopped whenever he came to a crucial double.

Usually he would go bang, bang, bang in one movement.

But this time he stopped and had a look at the double and that meant he lost his rhythm - in the end that cost him the game.

You can't change your game, and when Barney got on top he really beat him up.
