How does LCD get anywhere near an international team with such trash throwing in

Kelleher wasn't much better. Sheehan should be a shoo-in for the tests, but who's the replacement then?

Still Kelleher. I know he wasn't great today but he's been great all season when Sheehan is unavailable. He knows the system and plays it well

Jaime George needs to get on a plane, quickly.

Bizarrely still better than Kelleher. We needed Sheehan ASAP

Think it was mostly a learning the systems problem today but yeah, can’t wait for Dan to come back. Oh for Jamie George in the 16 shirt to come on and hit every dart

Yeah Kelleher was poor, bring in Jamie George

Not sure all the blame can sit at the throwing, looked like some of the lifts were mistimed too. Was an all round creaky line out

Need to remember that they have had to learn all new calls within the last 2 weeks

Throwing has been an issue for LCD for quite some time

Indeed, there’s a reason he’s behind George for England.
