There's something about watching darts that I find both compelling and calmingly therapeutic at the same time. I think maybe it's the incredible focus of the players and you almost feel like you need to be as concentrated as they are. Whatever it is I love it.

Years ago at Manchester service station I could not find my bank card for love nor money when I was at the checkout. The guy behind me insisted to pay for all my stuff without any hesitation, that bloke was Nathan Aspinall. The most genuine down to earth bloke you could meet. Delighted he is doing so well as he deserves it all.
Yes Nath! Can't believe Humphries missed three at double 2 to go 5-1 up, what a turnaround from there for The Asp. Side note @Professional Darts Corporation, would love to see you extend these clips by 30 seconds and capture some of the celebration and aftermath, they finish almost immediately after the last dart.
I would love to see Peter Wright get back on his feet again. Every week I hope that he just has that incredible underdog run to win but its just not working out at all for him. Such a shame. But he will always be one of my favorites.
Same, he has had some poor games like last night but also played really well some weeks and still lost. I hope things go his way a bit more in the remaining weeks.
Good ,i think it’s cringe that when these uk based players put countries colours on there playing at to think somehow get the crowd on there side ,that’s what’s wrong with the world ,be proud your English Welsh etc and your get more respect !
@@Rjrambo1982they're playing in that country you absolute donut it's called respect. The fans love it, hence why pretty much EVERYBODY is wearing orange.
Price vs Cross was great character stuff. Price telling Cross he isn't hitting a 170, for price to then acknowledge Cross for taking out a 3 dart finish.. Great stuff.
Gezzie has the third highest cumulative three-dart average, and the third best checkout percentage of the players, and yet he's languishing at sixth on the table. It's a tough tough school, this Premier League! 😮
Am sick of it..we'r here for the darts..just say darts..cunts..plus the players one too..2 seperate streams that are filled with spoilers..stupid format
People said the Asp would never cut it in the premier league… But look at him now!!! The Asp as become such a amazing player and is doing very well in the Premier League this year!!!
Agree on Asp, but it is not Smith's A game. Hopefully yet... I think he should consider teaming up back with his sport psychologist, it worked for him in 2023 WC
I was there, were some huge fights. Guys were throwing tables and chairs on eachother. There also was a fight were someone almost got thrown off the upper stand
why its exciting? He's playing trashy a little over 70 avg xd Thats for local bars, its not exciting its humilating to see his downfall. He will absolutly not get up in premier league
Theres 5 players going for 4 spots in reality. 6 points seperating all 5. I think 28 points might be the safety zone. 2 lukes need 1 more win each to hit 28 points.smith needs a nightly win to force his way into it and make it a crazy final few nights. Because of Cross,Wright and Price not scoring much all the points are being clained by the top 5 so defo 24 points will not be enough this year. Its all down to Smith to make a late charge and get the 4 boys above his papping it. Every time smith plays littler his game is on point then his level drops off.littler was pants tonight. Think smiths in his head,same way as hes in humphries.
It's not so much the camera operators' fault as the director's: the director has to make split-second decisions on which camera to go to for a particular shot, and if a 'big number' gets missed by the player, then the director has either to be hot at the maths, or opt for a 'whole board' camera shot. Also, there is the 'spotter', usually a mathematically able former player, eg. Keith Deller, who is there behind the scenes to work things out, lightning-quick, for the commentators, if need be. Mistakes, however, are inevitable, particularly with fast players like Humphries, Smith, Littler, etc.
@@terencemeikle534 bit of both really as the camera is often searching for the zone....but I sort of include the whole package when I say camerawork as its the combination of several cameras and the director.
It's crazy how clueless Mark Webster and the other commentator is. Clearly, Aspinall and Humphries were complaining about the draft again, yet the commentators had no idea why Luke's average was under 90 at one stage. I wish you could watch without commentary at times.
Me too man. They were really ruthless, I don't mind a bit of crowd opinion but, when it's clearly favourable like that it definitely plays its part. When the receiving end wins, it's a great testament to their character and self belief.
@Leeswinburn Unlucky Michael van gerwen it's not your night tonight in Rotterdam and luke humphries has beat you by 6-4 well done luke humphries to take out the hometown hero and i feel pleased that you are now back on top of the premier league darts table.
Get the message? Never give up. 😉 Get in there, Nathan! Also, Wright… you better try and enjoy what’s left of this Premier League because it could very well be your last…
Thank you PDC FOR NO DAN DAWSON MOUTHING OFF BABBLING ON TONIGHT 🥳🥳🥳🙏👏👏👏we enjoyed viewing the whole night with no dickhead sarcasm and bullshit! Thank you. Great night of darts... well done Nathan ASP 👏 👍
What's going on with MvG, it can't be that everyone has overtaken him, there's issues there, like he's just not bothered, he's lost that eye of the Tiger. 🎯😊.
There are lots of revealing interviews to be able to say they are all pretty good blokes. They are all ‘on the edge’ a bit, but deal with it different ways.
It's weird, it's like night and day, like the saying horses for courses, cos it's mad how someone can play so well and then just shit, did he put too much into the littler match, but some players, always have a bogey, same with snooker, 😊🎯.
Micheal as good as he is and can be......sweet Jesus its so frustrating to watch. He always looks so lazy and like he's not bothered. I know he's a very smooth throw itself. I mean more his demeanour I guess! The players no what's in the air. A lot was off with everyone
@@tiptupturtle Maybe because it happens every week and maybe because I have watched to the end of the video and seen they are the finalist again. Please dont be an absolute mongo. Pleaseeeee
Michael Smith has got the smoothest throw
I Concur, Smith and Humphries throw like silk
@@charliedontsurf-y1d plus van Barneveld

He is one the new age of players, Humphries, Littler, Smith, no yelling or screaming when the score a 180, win a leg.
Price and Wright are the worst.

Oh also, would love you to try and avoid any spoilers in the title, being in Australia, I can't really watch live.
I agree with everything this bloke said here, both the celebrations need to be shown, and also no spoilers in the title or thumbnail would be great.
Smith and that 170, Luke and that 164 and MvG's 149 were some great checkouts!
Nathan gives it everything thrown a few leads away over the weeks But great to see him comeback back against L H
Yeah... Nathan Aspinall is a great and kind player who congratulations every player who gets a good achievement also he is my fav
Probably the weirdest Premier League matchday ever. Everything seemed off the entire time.
Draft
No shit, Tonight’s game were pretty boring to be fair
The 164 from littler was the only thing that seemed normal lol
@@JakeDavidson-nt9mgNo mention of Smith’s 170???
Is that because littler got spanked? 😂
😂 Gezzy. Love that crazy maniac.
The Asp is back to winning ways!!! What a comeback against Humphries in the semi finals!!!
Yeah it was great. Neither Humphries nor Smith played well later on though.
Being 4-1 up I think Humphries blew it more than Asp won it. Well pleased for the Asp though.
@@dazuk1969 Asp won because Humphries bottled it
Had a great evening last night, first time watching darts in real life 😊
Love the orange theme! 🇳🇱
What an incredible season this year: 6 world champions, the crazy young gun Littler and everybody‘s darling Nathan playing his best darts.
I would love to see Peter Wright get back on his feet again. Every week I hope that he just has that incredible underdog run to win but its just not working out at all for him. Such a shame. But he will always be one of my favorites.
Same, he has had some poor games like last night but also played really well some weeks and still lost. I hope things go his way a bit more in the remaining weeks.
He has a really odd throw these days , seems to twist from the waist as he lets go of the dart . That can't be good for accuracy at all
Peter didn't get the orange memo.
Littler too

He had the skyline of Rotterdam on his jersey though, so it was a nice touch.
Michael Smith is the coolest when he throws. He computes the sequence in a split second. 🎯🎯🎯
4:25 Percentage Shot
Did every broadcaster have problems before the final or just DAZN? And what was going on with the Wind and the whistling? What the hell?
Viaplay also had issues before the final.
Sport1 (German free-tv) also. ✌🏻
The jeering? They always do that against other nationals in the Mickey Mouse countries... i.e. holland, Germany, Scotland, Ireland.
Aspinall has always been the one I want to see become champion...and oh boy did he make me happy this time...wow!.
Congrats Nathan 👏❤
Price vs Cross was great character stuff. Price telling Cross he isn't hitting a 170, for price to then acknowledge Cross for taking out a 3 dart finish.. Great stuff.

Over the moon for you top man 👍💙💙
