Title: Darts
Post by: Damo on January 02, 2024, 10:19:27 PM
Dunno if there is many darts fans on the board
I have it in my top 3 or 4 fav sports to watch (AFL, NFL leading)

What is happening in this years world championships is unprecedented.

A 16yo making the last 4 is beyond belief.

Honestly is in the top few most amazing sporting achievements of all time

Big fan Damo.

Thought Littler would do some damage but making the semis is incredible. Decent chance of making the final imo but I reckon Humphries takes it out

Was glad to see the back of Rob Cross
Apparently a great guy, but he annoys the poo out of me .. was really hoping to see Dobey go a long way, but Cross came back from 0-4 to knock him out

Humphries has been the best player in the world for months and deserves the title .. but Littler has no fear at all

Can’t believe he has made the final ..

Looks like a man , no doubt
So did Ronnie James when he debuted in a VFA GF at 14yo

They produced Littler’s birth certificate to end the talk

Should be a sensational final

Go Luke Humphries !!

Hopefully the final is as good as last year

Littler had a nervous start but then went bang. You don't often see such a comprehensive semi final win in darts.

He is so consistent with his throws. If he hits a triple first dart all three darts end up next to each other.

Will be at the top of darts for some time

He will be near unstoppable (until the next one comes along)

Makes Josh Rock seem average in comparison, and Rock is the other “next big thing”

Littler won the series event in Bahrain today

The structure is quarters, semi and final on the last day.

Kicks off with a 9 darter first leg of his quarter against Aspinall
https://youtu.be/6h0IBtGi4VE?si=_WpWJjGp3xKj1Npl

Aspinall’s reaction was sensational

Then beats Gerwyn Price in the semi and Van Gerwen in the final

Absolutely freakish
