SEAN Taylor (30.67) produced a dominant display for Plymouth City Super League Division A champions Octagon in their 11-0 drubbing of Kings Tamerton, with a 3-0 win that saw legs tumble in 16 and 14 darts.

- By JAMES COOK Darts correspondent

The home team's modus operandi revolves around getting out of the traps early, and this was no more apparent than when John Mann, Alfie Ford, and Taylor (25.67) took their 1001 trebles in 39 darts.

In the second leg of the match, Neil White, Mark Williams, and Lee Hellings (27.05) put together a 37-darter over the same distance.

Taylor returned to the oche to nail a 180 in a 2-0 doubles win when pairing with Mann before Hellings and Ford put together a 601 leg in 19 darts during another 2-0 success.

White and Williams heard 'game shot' called after throwing 23 darts in the final doubles rubber, and the excellence didn’t stop at the end of the team phase of play. Hellings put up a leg in 18 darts during his 3-0 win and walked away from the board with 17 ton-plusses to his name.

Taylor's second 180 of the tie came in his aforementioned victory before White added the third and final three treble visit in another 3-0 success to tick his ton tally over to the 13 mark. Mann, who ended his night on ten tons, lost a leg in a 3-1 win, but more than made up for it with a 100 checkout and legs put away in 17 and 16 darts in his notable triumph.

George Beckett (27.83) added a brace of 15 darters and a 104 checkout in a 3-0 win that helped Steam-packet to an 8-3 success over Legends Lounge C.

Added to his 12 ton-plus haul were a 180 and a 103 kill that came in the team phase of play, whilst teammate Marc Webber netted a 112 three dart combination out shot that bettered both Beckett's efforts. Nick Miller put his name in the 180 column of the sheet with a solitary visit, and the best from the away side came in the form of a 180 from Kieran Harris and Charlie Crossfield’s 77 kill.

Kings Arms B's 6-5 win over King Billy A saw Dave Johns (26.84) produced a leg in 15 darts to round off a superb 3-0 singles win.
