Darts thread

Someone in the crowd shouted "Luke, your elbow (?) is too straight"...he then hits two 180s. 🤣

[Seaside Dave]

Game on 

[neilnunb]

Think Aspinall's joking around there cost a possible 9 darter. Littler felt rattled enough from losing the previous leg to do it.

[Seaside Dave]

Big leg decider from littler. 

[periodictabledancer]

Wheels coming off for Aspinall.

Cringey tbh.

 

Focus on his own game.

[Sooperstar]

Aspinall's on stage persona always comes across a bit fake to me. Can't take to him.

[Mr Sifter]

Has Aspinall suffered from dartitis in the past? Cos he was sure as hell showing symptoms last night. Constantly stopping his throw to either check the scores, rub his nose, take a minute to reassess his shot etc etc. It looked that obvious to me, I was actually surprised it wasn’t referenced by the commentators. Maybe a bit like “MacBeth”, it’s maybe bad luck to mention the word “dartitis” in the Ally Pally 🤪

[John Findlay]

I hope Bunting wins.

Then I and a few thousand others can claim a Bunting tosser won the World darts😄.

Those in the know, know.

Total mind games from Littler there checking out bull, 3, double 6 when easier options were on. 

He would have been hoping to hit the 25 instead of the bull to leave his favourite double top.

Yea he had it really bad for a while. Can still see it effects. My mate suffered from this before and another dart player slowed it way down for him and explained how to get rid of it. He said when you are gripping your dart to point it to the ground and count 1 then aim at walk below the board and count 2 then aim at the board count 3 and release. After a few months he was back to normal

When do we find out who is throwing first in each game?

Dobey must be throwing first in the first semi

[neilnunb]

Dobey gets back to 2-1. Needed that set badly.

[stevie]

Gordie lad looks like a rabbit in the headlights,really poor.

 

[Tiger]

Can't see anyone of these two winning it outright playing like this.

[stevie]

Must be the worst ever semi final in history,really poor

[stevie]

Dobey has been absolutely terrible

[neilnunb]

Littler starting the second semi

Tight set that. Could be on for a classic here 

[Seaside Dave]

Looking pretty straight forward for Luke littler this. 

[Tazio]

Definitely the only occasion Man Utd will thrash Liverpool this week. 

[neilnunb]

Dawson and Webster almost willing Bunting's darts in.

Boom - 170 checkout

[Stuart McNeill]

I enjoy watch the darts, starting to try watch it more.

What times the final?

Littler seems like a nice young guy and is a tremendous player but the gushing commentary if he’s approaching the finish line will be excruciating. 

It'll be entirely appropriate for once though, in fairness. Easy to forget his age, inexperience, scale of his achievements etc because he is just so good and it all seems so natural for him to be doing these things.

[Hømme]

Littler is a class act and will win his first World title tonight. 

[Armageddon]

I did enjoy that moment last night when Bunting hit the 170 going treble, bull, treble.... then Luke got out on the 170 and made that wee look round.

 

He's some player now, and will be at the top of darts for the next 30 years..... unless his dad gets caught doing something dodgy!

[neilnunb]

MvG wins the throw to start the match.

 

Come on Luke!

[periodictabledancer]

Interesting opening leg ! MvG blows it. 

[Mikey1874]

There was that time a few years it was like Van Gerwen would never lose a game.

[Tazio]

That 4th leg was shite. From both of them. 

[neilnunb]

Both them with quite a few loose darts so far. 

 

Wish someone would punch Dan Dawson.

He's not as bad as that slaver Rod Studd last night. 

[Sooperstar]

Littler blowing MVG as hoped and expected. Sure MVG will have his moment during the match.

Missing 3 at double top doesn’t help. 

[neilnunb]

Lots of stray darts from Littler despite his 3-0 lead.

[neilnunb]

"He's taking the piss" 🤣

 

Hope that doesn't come back to bite.

[Craig_]

Outrageous stuff from Littler. No surprise MvG's rattled. 

[Dean Winchester]

MVG rattled.

I’m actually feeling quite sorry for him. 

[Taffin]

I'm not a darts watcher but enjoyed playing on holiday earlier this year so watching tonight.

 

If it wasn't for the commentators and preamble I'd think the guy in green was new to this.

Behave. Folk have come back from 4 sets before...although personally I hope it ends 7-0 🤣

MvG is nowhere  near the player he was. Humphries & Littler are the future.
