I like Ritchie. Not only does he have a cool name.. Ritchie... He seems the type of neighbour that wouldn't hesitate to help me fix the front porch woodwork after the mother in law took a dive to China in search of discipline.

[@AllThisOverASliceOfGabagool]

What a great would-be description 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@tj-qs4cl]

very specific is this a true story

[@Burpzzz]

@@tj-qs4cl I can confirm this to be true. The mother in law is with me in China now, harvesting potatoes.

Edhouse is a machine

[@daniellever6131]

From someone who knows Edhouse from his Essex years of local leagues, Ritchie has always been world class, but it's clear he has started to really believe in himself more. Its such a joy to finally see because apart from being world class, Edhouse is a real great bloke. Wont be long before he wins his first title i reckon and I hope.

I love the way van veens darts sit so flat. I really hope he wins a title some time in the near future. Best of luck van veen 🎯🤘

[@bobbyjenkins4476]

His throw is horrific

[@Xero026]

Yeah it looks unstable

[@Joel-js2gk]

He is ridiculously good. He had a better first year on tour (2023) than Josh Rock had in his first year (2022). And that says a lot because Rock was (and is) fantastic, and he (rightfully) got a ton of hype from fans and media alike. GVV deserves the same hype that Rock got, and the only reason he's gone under the radar is because Littler. I'd be surprised if Van Veen doesn't win a title of some sort this year, and will win a major in the next 3 years IMO

[@sarahwelty9223]

It could be something to do with his height he's very tall so the darts land flat

[@anthonymatute6057]

Madhouse has been on a role as of late, he is just getting better and better!!!

[@frozyre7854]

Good on ya, Richie! That's a big step to clear. What's with the comments about Littler's performance and acting like as if this is the first time they've seen him lose? Did he like make you lose betting money or something? Littler is a great player, but he's also not perfect, he's lost matches before and he's been ousted from tournaments earlier than you'd expect him to be.

[@0Lamp13]

Good chance they either lost betting money, or don't watch much darts to know what's happening

[@magikarpsplashy]

​@MackDaddy233 well the only other premier league player who played that day also lost... so well done on arguing against your own point

[@Rifi77]

He has two bad games for the first time in six months and people are talking about his 'downfall' 😂

[@KailiLive]

He also said he played on 4 hours sleep. For a 17 year old, that is very energy taxing

[@jerejere809]

What a great night of darts. Very much upsets and great Performances from Nijman, Edhouse, Baetens and De Decker. Also Kevin Troppmann surprised me, only Luke Littler seems a bit disinterested in Darts at the moment. Interesting to see how he can handle this setback

[@LOLMAN9538]

Littler's only focus rn is on the Premier League

[@davyxxkbh]

Yeah clearly disinterested.. 🥱 wtf are you talking about. He was on fire for basically 5 months now, it’s clear he will fall back to normality every now and then

[@user-um6un9wy7u]

[@user-ii4sk3zy6b]

[@tbrule.4877]

Luke losing these last couple days will only keep him humble. He will always be good just like MVG is. He might be inconsistent at times but he can still dominate when he needs to.

[@linkvagar2336]

Gotta love how when Littler loses one match, all the haters come out to talk shit. Where are you when he's winning in the Premier League?

[@0Lamp13]

They're probably out getting pegged then 😂😂😂

[@Adam35779]

He hasn't won it yet

[@mindencsakironia]

They are blaming a 17 yo kid bcus of his attitude, but everyone's master the big and not hysterical man Phil Taylor was okay, when he acted like a child.. or he remained silent when the speaker made a mistake, he saw the dart in double wrongly, and Phil won the leg without real checkout.

[@gustaaf1892]

No one doubts Littler is near the very top of darts players at an unbelievably young age, but his fiddling with his darts again after being defeated instead of going over to Nijman to congratulate him on his win is annoying. He needs to rid poor sportsmanship from his game if he wants to be well liked as a champion player.

He needs to get rid of poor sportsmanship out of his game if he wants to be well liked as a champion player.

[@davyxxkbh]

The other guy was clearly celebrating on his own so he did the only right thing. He packed his stuff and waited until his opponent enjoyed himself enough to give him a handshake. All this football trolls talking about bad sportsmanship in darts. Go back to your old sports if you don’t love it..

[@gustaaf1892]

@@davyxxkbh Since when do you expect anyone to take any notice of you? All you've proven is that you're a DH who should be ignored. Don't be an apologist for bad sportsmanship. This is par for the course for Littler when he loses, so he needs to learn some etiquette instead of behaving like a spoilt brat. There are plenty of good examples out there. Now you can fark off with your uneducated and biased opinion.

Who do you want this story to be about? price, wright, smith are weaker week by week. asp, cross are not even in top3. gerwen is a mystery, make 110 avg then make 90 with terrible checkout. humphries the best rn, but he has bad days too. if u have problems with his attitude i understand, but just wait until the day when Leighton Bennet arrives.
