Night 8 of the 2024 Premier League Darts campaign is underway in Dublin with Luke Humphries and Nathan Aspinall becoming the first men through to the semifinals.
In the opening game of the night, Humphries showed why he is the reigning world champion and world number one with an exquisite performance to comfortably dispatch Peter Wright 6-1, averaging over 106 and firing in a 130 finish and a bull-bull 120 checkout en route.
In the second game of the night, it was Aspinall who started the quicker, racing into a 2-0 lead before a string of missed doubles allowed Rob Cross back into things. In the end, it went all the way to a decider with Aspinall taking the win on double 1.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
