Back to 5-2.
Can see MGV coming back here though. Littler is just such a heavy scorer.
Littler relentless on the doubles.
Some nerves from the young fella
There we go. Well done young fella. One of many you’d think.
Wish he hit the Bull Bull D16 to finish. Almost.

He is amazing. It is making darts fun to watch again imo.
the way he locks in on a finish is great to watch
Nicely weighted? I count 31 with 5 darts. Can’t quite make out where number 6 hit. 
When wasn’t it fun?

So who make a premier league?
Littler
Humphries
MVG
Smith (but gee he is badly out of form)
Price (think he’s the villain we need in that format)
Bunting
Then you get into a free for all. Aspinall, Cross and Wright all made it last year. Then you have some guys who have been there abouts in Dobey, Heta, van den Bergh.
De Decker won a major but nothing since. Edhouse did some really good things to win the Euros.
If I had to pick, I’d give one to De Decker because he can throttle a 180 and van den Bergh.
Edit: I know I’m missing a few. Ross Smith and Clayton to name a couple
I actually think spots in the premier league are tough to figure out.
Locked
Littler
Humphries
MGV
and current rankings have Cross at 4.
Next level would be
Bunting
Price.
Price is a must have. Bunting by rankings and what he stands for but he’s a very slow player.
Then throw a blanket over the rest.
I’d say Dobey is locked in because he’s such a heavy scorer.
Smith is horribly out of form and needs to perform at the World Masters.
Peter Wright is cooked.
I like Scott Williams as a villain and also Heta as an entertainer but neither of them did enough in the world champs.
They need to make sure the Premier League is entertaining and competitive otherwise it will die. Big decisions for a big year.

It certainly isn’t what it was 10 years ago. Needs a boost.
Premier League Darts 2025 line-up:
Luke Humphries
Luke Littler
Michael van Gerwen
Rob Cross
Stephen Bunting
Gerwyn Price
Chris Dobey
Nathan Aspinall
Boring PL lineup. I think they needed another villain in the mix
Smith out is the big surprise but I wonder if he knocked it back
Humphries taking out the first major of the year with a rejuvenated masters tourney. Weirdly I think he needed that, after Littler’s recent dominance

Just watched the final. What a cracker.
Glad to see the Ferret back at the top and playing well. He really could/should have won in the end.

First round of pl for year was yday! Awesome to have this back.
Also, I’ve just finished my video setup at home and starting to play online using DartCounter if anyone else from Blitz wants a casual game.
Enjoyed the 1st round. Crowd was really good and so were the darts despite the final flop.
I think the ASP might be out of his league but let’s see how he goes.
I’m looking forward to having this as part of my Friday morning routine.
How does the video setup work?
