Donny at the darts!

Wade just hangs in there but his doubles are astounding. Always seems to be a good 10pts down on the averages but his doubles really keep him in games.
Never used to like him but the guy is such a grinder.
Yeah same, the master of being behind in averages but inexplicably ahead
Wade absolutely brilliant on the doubles, knew he'd do Price then.
Love how Clayton looks at the camera after a good visit
Shocked to see that commentator Nigel Pearson died yesterday, aged just 52.
I've only really got into watching darts regularly in the last couple of years but he was fantastic in his role at covering speedway and also did radio work for Talksport.
RIP

Feck. I remember this first few shows when he didn’t have a clue. Barney was on 80 something and he said it’s unlikely that he’ll take it out!
It's so cheesy, but he's likeable enough to get away with it.
Wade's been in decent form for a bit now- 105 average in the final showed he's not just opportunist.
Berry van Peer went a very unique way for 124, went T14, T14 for D20 (which he just missed)
Never seen that, but I guess you still get bull if you only hit one treble
Just put the German Open on. Keegan Brown seems to have put on about five stone and aged 15 years since I last saw him.
Mike Gregory has died it was announced today
Premier League @ Aberdeen tonight. Always a cracking atmosphere.
Crowd has been flat when no Scotsman are playing.
Their booing of Clayton was stupid though
Enjoy the prem but wished it started earlier so i could go bed.
Great stuff from MVG
Clayton poor there
People whistling while 1 player is throwing for the leg is such a turn off for the neutral spectator.
Has this always been the case or is it getting worse recently?

Oosh what a leg
Seems to be happening more and more
Clayton giving it back to the idiots in the crowd, good for him.
What a capitulation from MvG there, it was in his hands. Wonder what he was complaining about there.
Well done to Clayton though, held his nerve brilliantly.

That was my impression but I watch so irregularly that I wasn't sure. Would be a shame if darts lost it's special atmosphere.
180 140 on his throw and lost it. Madness.
Couldn't believe it really. Don't fancy him in Dublin next week either.
Interesting the top 4 all play each other, so a chance for one of the chasing pack to get back in the mix. Price probably has to pick up a 5 points or that's it for him.
Will be very interesting and hard to call. Not sure Price will make it, but never know with Cullen either.
I feel for Smith though, guy plays some great darts but just can't get a break.
That Russ was only speaking to the fans when he was about to throw.
Wade is some scoring form, missed the match but averaged over 114 beating Price (seems to have his number in this premier league)
He's a dark horse to win this, he keeps getting to finals and scoring well.
Wade casually beating MVG, Price, and Clayton.
Just watched the highlights. He was amazing all night with some classy 141, 140, 118 etc checkouts often at big moments, not to mention his customary two dart 88 and the like finishes.
He's been playing as well as he ever has for a couple of months now. Seems in a good place.
Almost a comeback there from Cullen. Don't know why MvG keeps putting himself in such nail biters.
Not sure who wins tonight, tough to call.

Got to be Clayton v MVG in the final and then it’s a toss up for me.
Think we may see a shock Gary win tonight, at least I hope, with home advantage, but it's a stretch.
Form says it will be as you say, then I think Clayton will take it. MvG gives any hope like he did against Cullen and Clayton will finish him.
Anderson looking very good tonight though.
Nevermind, not enough consistency as per usual this season, moments, but that's about it.
Michael "Spurs" Smith
Literally, if he starts getting over the line more he could easily be world number 1. Always smashes Price too which is great.
Watching the Darts tonight and it got me thinking listening to the crowd again...
Snooker, Pool and it's various forms of it all have very quiet audiences during play actions, where as darts the crowd are allowed to scream and shout at any point. One would think the pressure to make a dart shot would require a similar amount of focus as in those other sports.
Wonder who decided, we don't cheer and scream in snooker/pool but in darts it's fine.
