    Jaw dropping darts from Bunting and Dobey today. Smith was excellent in defeat as well as Hempel.

    I think Dobey will get past Bully in the last 16 and I think he’ll take care of (most likely) Cross in the last 8. Bunting MVG is going to be an absolute barnstormer.

    He’s on a shaky peg here Cool Hand, he doesn’t look confident either. Needs a major change.

    Humphries has shat it. If Pietreczko can hold his nerve he will get over the line.

    pikachu is controlling the rhythm so well. humphries needs that rhythm adjusted to get back into it. doesn't help when your title favourite and have an alleged broken point on a dart and having to do a snakebite half way through the tie.

    Absolutely hate players like Humphries, both at professional and * level.

    Going between face tripping him, and laughing and sniggering when they miss as though they’ve a divine right to be hitting everything they go for at all times.

    Total banger of a boy.

    Humphries moaning about the crowd and then acting as if he has just climbed Everest. What a fud.

    Barney very lucky to win that 4-1 with an 89 average. Williams missed a bucket load of doubles and the game got away from him fast.

    Sets up the game everyone wants to see tomorrow.. Barney v Littler. Hopefully the real Barney shows up and we get a cracker

    van Gerwen is a different breed of player.

    The standard of darts is unbelievable now and he’s not been at the top of his game recently, but he’s the best player in the world by a considerable distance for me.

    Best player I’ve ever seen and his best may still be around the corner.

    MVG is a thoroughbred competitor, the emotion he puts into every single game is unmatched - you can see it pouring out of him at the end of so many matches.

    I think a lot of the arseholeness is lost in translation with him, he seems like a pretty cool guy out with darts.

    Yeah I like MVG. Proper competitor and the best to ever play the game for me on pure ability. I have Dobey backed at 28/1 and luckily he’s on the other side of the draw but it’s hard to see MVG losing it. He’s due another one.
