I was thinking the same when i watched the game. So much respect for Josh Rock! More players should stop the crowd(s) from booing! Lets make it a fair contest yall :)
To beat the Asp with 3-1, 3-Nil and 3-1, was absolutely brilliant. He's as mental as rabid rat chewing its toe-nails, but he's the real Machine when it comes to throwing darts.
Incredible darts!!! Bunting was on fire with his finishing, and Ricky Evans has got pass Nathan Aspinall with no problems at all!!! This year’s world championship so far is serving up a lot of surprises, that’s one thing for sure!!!
@@Phoardmans you are right, as a Dutchie I'm always a bit fired up when I see 2 Dutch flags facing each other while every UK player is facing someone not from UK
@@xtheamazingaxmost people would say wright cause he was top 4 seeded but form wise it wasn't really a shock that he lost considering how he's played this year but aspinall is the biggest shock here
@@hghsnper3995 But Wright was overrated at 4 +he had a horrible year.His ranking $$ carried over from last year.Next year is another story,he definitely ain't losing his tour card.
11 seeded players are gone in second round, this is incredible. Especially with Wright, Noppert and Aspinall three Top 10 players, who didn't play the Players Championship Finals this says very much about their poor games. And everyone of them lost 3:0 in Sets
When Phil Taylor was smashing everyone back in the day there was only a hand full of players that stood an outside chance of beating him.The standards today are much higher.If Phil was in his late 20's today,he wouldn't win 16 world titles not even close.The averages are much higher today with younger players.That's just my thoughts.
Bunting looked phenomenal in this match. He reminded me of the Bully Boy last year. I hope he can stay mentally strong during the tournament, since this has been an issue in the past that he got distracted and then lost the match. He should always stay confident, because his play is so strong when he is at its best.
The booing against van peer is disgraceful. People should be ashamed. Hes played well for 2 matches and you can only have respect for someone that has had to struggle with dartitis
@@anthonycollette4583 Really it is isn't, it's because he's playing an Englishman. Scottish, Irish, German, Belgian Dutch crowds all do it. I don't like it but it is what it is.
Meh, Aspinall played 88avg, even if we say he should have shot 94 or 96… Evan’s shot 97.5, generally meaning if Nathan played better, Evan would go up to about a 99, so no B or B+ aspinall wins that game only his A game wins and Nathan’s A game only appears in 1/4 matches, so he usually loses against a Ricky playing like that.. I love to ramble.
The money in the sport means anything is possible. People from all round the world are practising so hard. Anyone can beat anyone in the draw. This has been an unreal world's. Absolutely loving every match.
I am the most casual dart player. I like the game but hardly play. Somehow this tournament came across my homepage and it’s now a nightly routine to watch. I don’t know what I’ll do when this is over. Go throw some darts I suppose.
Great to see Berry come back from dartitis to play at such a high level again. Bunting outstanding, made one of the form players in the world in Joyce look average. Searle solid if unspectacular - hope to see more of Goto in the future. Him and Leung are talents and the future of Asian darts, along with Perez. Did not think Ricky had that level in him, fair play. Gurney in round 3 is a winnable game - although if he plays like how he did against Beaton it’ll be tough. Not a good look for those who skipped the PC finals - here’s looking at Aspinall, Wright and Noppert. Tipped Rock for a deep run. Aside from Littler and the two Williams, most of my outsider picks are in the toilet. Still think we’ll get an MvG-Humphries and Anderson-Ross Smith semi, assuming Ross can get past Dobey!
4 me rapid rjxky eveabs is gonna win the whole thing guy played liked a legend like phill taylor and should win whole thing he was hitting all the big 180# and all eh doubles man to beat I think cmon rapdi rick y Evans u can do it m8
@@TripodianTTHe had hype last year and they would have hyped him this year too. If there was no Luke Littler. This year Littler gets all the hype. If he was not here, Rock would have been hyped again. They usually hype one player massively and this time its Luke Littler
It's a mental thing where basically your whole throw can break down or you find it difficult to actually throw the darts because of the fear of missing.
@@spud3464 I had it and for me it was not "fear of missing". I played normally like always. Suddenly, the dart felt weird in my hand. It felt like whatever I do, it is not perfectly placed in my hand. So my brain thought: "Its not the right time to release, there is something wrong" I had to fix, until I thought, the dart is placed right in my hand. Its a kind of perfectionism. I was not fearing to miss, I was fearing to hold the dart wrong. I don't care if I hit or not. But when the dart feels weird in my hand, its annoying me
Great sportsmanship from Rock telling the crowd to stop the boos against Van Peer
Why did they boo him?
@@JB-my4ppbecause he played against a britt, so they always do that
Josh Rock has more class than most veteran players. Really nice gesture by Rock.

No it wasn’t he made it worse. Just stay out of it that pissed me off it was like he was the one controlling the crowd
I'm so happy for Ricky Evans!!!
Finally he is showing what he can do on TV.

He's played well all year just results haven't gone his way
He will make top 4. He's in such fine form
He's clearly got the talent. Rooting for him to nail down the mental side and be a true terror!

"That first one was a good marker. Master stroke!"
Brilliant commentary.

Some really surprising outcomes this tournament so far but just to show that if you aren't on your game, your gone.
*you're gone
Yep is what it is you gotta be ready and on it
I really didn't get the scoreboard error at 14:41 in the video.
Van Peer should be on 88, but the caller says 82.
He takes out 82 and wins the leg.
The error was made earlier and was not showed in this clip. He threw: 57 (444 remaining) - 82 (362) - 100 (262) - 180 (82) - 82 (0)

Thank you for posting. I missed this. Thanx x 100.
All my favs come thru, and BVP as the unexpected fourth. Great Night of darts again. ♥️🎯
Just awsome to see Ricky slow down,,he in my opinion be much better more control,,Happy for you Ricky🤟🏻
Ricky slowing his throw down looks deadly now. Its like when mochael smith did it and look what happened..
If only Ricky Evans could play like that more often the best I've seen him play in years
same for Gurney !!!!

The Bullet looked sharp while Rocky got crumbled and Asp got stung! So many surprises right now and this WC is serving!
Josh must’ve been having flashbacks after Berry hit the D11 instead of D14, then cleaned up on D3. Poor bloke
Two observations: 1 Rock is overrated and 2 Evans is not especially fast these days.
@@TripodianTTHe had hype last year and they would have hyped him this year too. If there was no Luke Littler. This year Littler gets all the hype. If he was not here, Rock would have been hyped again. They usually hype one player massively and this time its Luke Littler

I wonder are they adding in the blurry bits of video on purpose 🤔

Never gonna happen this year
One of these years, but not 2024.

Little secret: everything in life is like golf. In this case you can’t be moving your head like the asp does and be consistent.

Day NINE, not Day Eight?

Hate when the crowd takes it to far… it’s embarrassing
The Asp was more focussed on singing and party than on his game. There is no place for party by the players in professional darts.
Poor form by pdc putting spoilers in the title and thumbnail once again. Just like last year. What's the point in it?
Maybe so more people will decide to pay for their product.
