It's not WWE mate. I watch it for the darts... not for people racking each others eyes and putting them in submission holds. Wrestling has moved on since Hulk Hogan & Rowdy Roddy Piper were topping the card, mate.

Absolutely brilliant both Luke's but Littler what a sensation.
Both Luke's have made me watch darts for the first time in years. Their levels at this moment in time are as good as any darters in the past i reckon.

Only takes a slight drop off and you're out of a tournament, whereas Taylor was head and shoulders above everyone at the time. He's very young and will win a lot of titles, but 16 is outrageous. He's definitely Phil Taylor V2.0 though.

Their levels at this moment in time are as good as any darters in the past i reckon. Taylor around 2009-2012 was the best, his averages were consistently touching 110-115+. And then van Gerwen a few years later. These two are exceptional though and Littler has time on his side to improve even further.

I keep saying it. He's going to destroy Taylor's record. I don't think he will. I think there's more youngsters behind him that'll make it more competitive. The old guard won't have the longevity they've had previously. I think Littler knows he's got about 10 years to make hay before you get a glut of players like him.

I keep saying it. He's going to destroy Taylor's record. Taylor was brilliant. He kept others down initially by going halves on money with Priestley. He could practice whilst others were on building sites in the day He was good but his competition was very limited. Unfortunately his decline due to age coincided with a lot of young talent coming through and huge prize money meaning he never got to test himself against this new lot whilst in his prime. As such his record of 16 won’t be beaten but in my eyes isn’t that great

Fantastic talent and an absolute joy to watch. They both are, Luke Humphries seems to have developed a winners mentality after his performances this past year.

As is Humphries, going to be some final. Can't help but think the atmosphere is flat though. Need some more characters and needle, they’re all way too friendly these days. This is more like it.
