Darts 2015/2016 - 1st Half - Polonia #3 (home)

SUMMARY

2nd week at Hemminways and our 2nd week of sucking ass...don't know what it is about that place but it's certainly not condusive to good shooting for our team....now the other teams don't seem to have a problem...but who am I to say...sloppy shooting pretty much going on...we do have some positive things we sprinkle in...but winning is not one of them....we got our asses handed to us 5-10....not a very good wekk....either way let's take a quick look at last night below...

THE STATS

FINES (TEAM 17)
(0-1)	Jeff (0)	Ted (0)
(2)	Ed (2 squats in cricket)	Marty (2 under 20)
(3+)	Bob (2 under 20, 2 C-rules, 1 squat in cricket)
(8)	Hop (6 under 20, 1 C-rule, 1 squat in cricket)

This week we collected 17 in fines...Ted and Jeff were fine free....Hop was the winner of the "Prestigious Skippy Award Winner" with 8 in fines...so almost half our fines were by one person...6 under 20s???  Really???

'01 AVERAGE (TEAM 46.94)
(>=55)	Ted (60.01)	Ed (58.01)
(45-54)	Jeff (53.92)
(40-45)	Marty (41.04)
(<40)	Hop (35.39)	Bob (33.28)

our team average is on a downward spiral...we aren't even close to our goal of a 50 team average...3 shooters over a 50...and then 3 shooters under 42...don't even know what to say...

% OF SHOTS OVER 40 (TEAM 62.12%)
(>=80%)	Jeff (82.61%)	Ted (80.95%)
(67-79%)	Ed (72.73%)
(51-67%)	Marty (57.14%)
(<=50%)	Hop (47.83%)	Bob (35.00%)

if you don't have good averages it's likely you didn't do well in this category...2 shooters over 80%...1 over 70%...and 2 under 50%....remember the golden rule...aim for fatties...

TONS (TEAM 5)
(>=3)
(1-2)	Ed (2)	Ted (2)	Jeff (1)
(0)	Bob (0)	Hop (0)	Marty (0)

single digit team tons for the 2nd week in a row...only 2 shooters with multiple tons....and only 1 other shooter with 1 ton....Bob, Hop and Marty weren't "in the mood" to chuck a triple digit score...

HIGH SCORE (TEAM 100)
(>100)
(100)	Ed (100)	Jeff (100)	Ted (100)
(75-99)	Marty (85)	Hop (72)
(<75)	Bob (57)

0 high tons this week...not our best effort...

LOW GAME AVERAGE (TEAM 32.89)
(>=50)
(40-49)	Jeff (44.50)
(30-39)	Ed (36.00)	Ted (33.00)	Marty (30.67)
(<30)	Hop (28.33)	Bob (21.00)

only 1 shooter with a low game average in the 40's...3 in the 30's...2 in the 20's....gotta be consistent every game...

SINGLE DIGIT SCORES (TEAM 5)
(0)	Ed	Bob	Jeff	Ted
(1)	Marty (1)
(>1)	Hop (2)

Hop shot a 7 and 8...Marty shot a 7 and busted on 66...Bob busted on 55...

DOUBLE INS (TEAM 8di / 4mi / 66.67%)
(>=75%)	Bob (1di / 0mi / 100.00%)	Hop (1di / 0mi / 100.00%)	Jeff (3di / 1mi / 75.00%)
(50-75%)	Ed (2di / 2mi / 50.00%)	Ted (1di / 1mi / 50.00%)
(1-49%)
(0%)

only single digit missed ins for the 3rd week in a row..Jeff went 3-4 at the ins...Bob and Hop were a combined 2-2....Ed and Ted were a combined 3-6...Marty didn't even get a shot at an in...way to be consistent at getting the ins...

DOUBLE OUTS (TEAM 4do / 8mo / 33.33%)
(>=2)	Jeff (2do / 0mo / 100.00%)
(1)	Ed (1do / 1mo / 50.00%)	Ted (1do / 2mo / 33.33%)
(0)	Hop (0do / 1mo / 0.00%)	Bob (0do / 2mo / 0.00%)	Marty (0do / 2mo / 0.00%)

single digit missed outs...main reason it was so low was because they took the games out quicker than we could get down to out shots...3 shooters contributed with at least 1 out...

CRICKET AVERAGE (TEAM 1.85)
(>=2.50)	Jeff (3.75)	Ted (2.50)
(2.00-2.49)
(1.50-1.99)	Marty (1.67)
(<1.50)	Ed (1.20)	Bob (1.00)	Hop (1.00)

we missed out team goal of a 2.0 average for the 3rd week in a row.......we had 1 shooter over 3.0...1 shooter above a 2.0 and 4 shooters below a 2.0....gotta be above a 2.0 average in cricket or you likely won't win...

>=3 MARK CRICKET ROUNDS (TEAM 23.33%)
(>=50%)	Jeff (75.00%)	Ted (75.00%)
(30-49%)
(1-29%)	Marty (16.67%)
(0%)	Ed (0.00%)	Bob (0.00%)	Hop (0.00%)

2 shooters over 75%...Marty, Ed, Bob and Hop went a combined 22 rounds with only 1 >= 3-mark round...and you wonder why we don't win more cricket games...

0 MARK CRICKET ROUNDS (TEAM 7)
(0)	Jeff (0)	Ted (0)
(0 except 1 at cork)	Marty (1 at cork)
(1-2)	Ed (2)	Bob (1 + 1 at cork)	Hop (1 + 1 at cork)
(>=3)

way too many squat shots again...4 of them were fineable...gotta hit what you are aiming at...

WIN PERCENTAGE (TEAM 33.33%)
(>=67%)
(50-66%)
(26-49%)	Jeff (42.86%)	Ted (42.86%)	Ed/Bob (28.57%)	Hop/Marty (28.57%)
(<=25%)

nobody had over a 50% win rate...absolutely horrible...if anyone has any ideas how to win more games I'm all ears...

CONCLUSION

19 losses in 2 weeks...that put us in freefall to 2nd to the last place...the good news is we are only 1 game out of last...I'm sure we'll get there next week...ughghghghgh..from the looks of things it appears this may be a rough half...I know nobody likes to lose...but I think it's time to either put up or shut up...or the division we are going to be in the 2nd half will be free falling too...Next week we play Polonia away...so if we start to stink in darts maybe we can bowl a frame or 2 there...
