That’s as good as Barney has played in a long time and he wiped the floor with him. His ceiling of potential is crazy

Insane performance from Littler.

He will comfortably beat Dolan, he has avoided the power scorers so far that’s when it will be interesting to see when he doesn’t have room for errors.
That’s a huge neck tattoo
Littler was super, Barney couldn’t have done much more
That was just incredible from Littler.
Superb stuff from the 34 year old.
What ranking is Littler? Couldn’t find him in the list at all. You’d fancy him to beat Dolan alright.
160 odd
Luke won the Irish Open mens in Killarney in 2021 and won the boys event in 2022.
(He got bate in the 2021 boys final averaging 95)
He doesn’t have a card so wouldn’t read too much into the ranking.
He’s on the tour next year.
Steve Lennon will lose his tour card if Littler beats Dolan.
He could be the first winner of this tournament whose ranking is a bigger number than his three dart average although it has happened at Lakeside when Neil Duff who was ranked 102 in the world won the final with a 71.53 average.
I assume he’ll be picked for the premier league
Barney had a tonne average.
The lack of Mardle has really improved the coverage. Don’t wish any ill-will on the lad but he’s a very annoying pundit with all the hyper antics.

He did but it was hitting on the backfoot under pressure it was 14-9 in legs you have to put Littler under the cosh early and take him into the longer sets.
They should just let Duzza and Part do every game from here on in.

Barney played alright darts there but averages can be deceiving. Double shooting frequently results in darts scoring 0 which brings the averages down. If you’re chucking an average of 110 or so with your first 12 darts you aren’t going to be getting to too many doubles against a player playing like Littler was.

Humphries 4-2 here
You would expect a far better performance from Cool hand with the darts repaired.
