#378: Nathan Aspinall, Grand Slam of Darts Review, Players Championship Finals Preview

The Weekly Dartscast

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back to review the Grand Slam of Darts, which saw the teenage star Luke Littler win his first major ranking title and jump up to number five in the world (1:25).

Two-time major champion Nathan Aspinall (16:09) calls in to look ahead to his return to the big stage at the Players Championship Finals this weekend. 'The Asp' reflects on an up and down last two years on the oche, including getting the full experience of the Premier League and winning his second major at the World Matchplay last year, as well as his injury problems that forced him to take a break from the game and now being 100 per cent fit heading into the business end of the season.

Alex and Burton continue their Grand Slam of Darts review and pick out their highlights from the tournament, before discussing the epic semi-final between Luke Littler and Gary Anderson and whether it is now the front runner for our Match of the Year award (42:00).

Kwiff's Jack Milner also calls in to give us the odds for our latest Weekly Dartscast Parlay with Kwiff. Co-hosts Alex and Burton, along with Jack, each make two picks for Friday's first round matches at the Players Championship Finals for this week's parlay, before Jack outlines some of the other betting markets for the tournament (55:59).

Alex and Burton wrap up the show with a look ahead to the Players Championship Finals this weekend and pick out their must-watch first-round ties, before looking further ahead to Monday's tour card holder qualifier for Ally Pally (1:01:23).
