Four days of darting action in the South West starts tonight with the customary early March Exeter Premier League night. However, tonight is not as straight forward as usual, with current PL champion Michael van Gerwen's throwing style finally catching up to him and ruling him out with a back injury. The lucky man replacing him is dim Dave Chisnall, probably on account of being the only one to lose last week.
Chizzy gets his double night started against Raymond van Barneveld. Barney had to fight back hard last week in his draw against Peter Wright, and with the simpleton being utter gash last time out against Jelle Klaasen, a focused Barney should keep the yellow one rooted at the bottom of the table.
Paedo Suarez himself then aims to follow up his first points of the campaign against Kim Huybrechts in what is undoubtedly a must win match for either man. The two debutants have only recorded three points between them, and with Klaasen starting strong but tailing off in most matches and Waffleboy repeating his 2015 performances (and still reeling from his embarrassing bottlejob against Phil Taylor) this should be close.
Speaking of Pheel, the certified multiple-time Taylor remover Gary Anderson plays him next. Using all of his experience to come from 5-1 down against James Wade, Gando will have to use that and invoke memories of his last PL win against Philth that kicked out the Stokie two years ago. Or he could just giggle again and give away two points.
Adrian Lewis finally showed his best last week against MVG, coming oh so close to beating the autist, and if he repeats that against Peter Wright, who was largely poor versus RVB, he might actually look impressive for once. Just don't mention any cruise exhibitions.
Wadey ends the evening against Chizz, and assuming he has blown it earlier in the evening, only a win against the still unbeaten Machine will keep Jug Ears' survival hopes alive.
Coverage starts from 7:00pm UK time on Sky Sports 1.
