That was an amazing performance tonight, he’s on a different level to every other player. He’s now in a similar position to Phil Taylor at his peak where nobody could live with him when he played well - which was nearly always. I think the difference now is that the competition is of a higher standard that peak Taylor which is probably why he won’t get anywhere near Taylor’s 26 world titles. Nevertheless, a stunning performance.

Deffo a higher standard of competition in this modern day era.

The guaranteed entertainment n sell out crowds looks like being around for many years to come.

Only downside to darts is the total miserable bastad walk on Bouncer.

It’s similar to snooker. The likes of Joe Davis, Spencer, Mountjoy etc wouldn’t get near qualifying for any tournament.

the only thing that bothers me is that eventually if his standards stay the same or actually improve he,ll become disliked and he,ll lose his press. we just as a country seem to end up disliking winners.
