Match of the tournament so far, all that was missing was a deciding set.

Disappointed for The Riot, he played very well, but missed a few vital doubles. MVG v Littler final?

Phenomenal tournament throughout from Rydz tbf. 
 

On paper MVG v Littler final of course most likely, but no point predicting Darts nowadays.

I think Aspinall beats Littler later. 

 

Especially if he gets off to a quick start

Bunting being less than 40 is just blowing my mind.

Nah I just can’t see it. Aspinall is not playing at those levels. 
 

As for this game, I can see Bunting winning 5-0/5-1 to be honest. Wright won’t play anywhere near as well as the other night

I remember watching him in the BDO years ago thinking he was about 50 then

[Samilktray]

Reckon i’m gonna go the same way as Bunting when I’m on the cusp of my 40s. I’m no good at darts to make up for it either

Aspinal seems to have the bit under his teeth and trying to prove a few people wrong.....and is playing well....wouldn't be suprised if he won 5.3

I asked the wife how old she thinks this guy is and she said 65. His son looks mid thirties  

[PAULCFC]

Would be good if bunting won it.....first old BDO winner since RVB I think or did Ando ever win the BDO?

Must be tough constantly travelling back and forth to Quahog Rhode Island year after year.

Reckon we all have been over this WC! I'm going Littler v Dobey in the final!

got it very wrong!

[filbertway]

On form Littler wins this easy, I'm going 5-1 Littler.

 

My prediction was a Littler v Dobey final. Assuming Littler progresses  then it's really hard to choose the winners of the semis.

[Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot]

He’s impressive when he’s playing like that. Could be a quick one.

[PAULCFC]

Littler looks in the mood........could be over very quick!

I struggle to see Dobey beating MVG over 11 sets. He’s scraped by in most of his games so far whereas MVG is starting to look close to his best. 

[filbertway]

Littler is so good to watch. Love how quick his finishes are

 

Even better when he's able to trick the cameraman and go a totally different route

Sadly I think youre right. Would take a bad night at the office for MVG, which feels unlikely given that he seems to have found some of his best form in this tournament.

 

Could be a lot of 180s scored tomorrow night some real power scorers up there

Aspinall looks like he has the juddery yips sometimes. 
Tripping over the oche, backing off, stopping and laughing.

Maybe it’s nerves.
