Sure I saw a post or tweet about number of 105+ averages at worlds for each player anyone got it or seen it? Littler is immediately right up there
He’s got the same number as Price now, mentioned on comms.
That's cause Price is shite mate
Could make a good TV show

It's easy to say Williams has already played his final, but in fairness, he just doesn't have the gears that Humphries has

The negative about Littler is that it brings in the "Not Wes" (i.e. casuals) into the darts conversation.

Shame Wade's pomp was in an era where the bullseye didn't readily fit about half a dozen darts in it, then.
I don't have an issue with the ridiculous doubles and trebles on modern boards. The game is essentially unified again so all players are playing on the same kit (or have the chance to), so it isn't that anyone is unfairly disadvantaged.
The issue is with the historical comparisons. Gobshite Gobshite Mardle knows full well the differences between today's boards and those used even fifteen years back but his employer has a narrative to run so he'll say what he needs to say to run it. Darts had a lot of casual fans, so they'll hear that and understand it to mean what Gobshite Gobshite Mardle and Sky want them to understand it to mean.
Edgar found that PDC boards from even 20 years ago were 7.5% smaller than now. How much does that influence averages? Dunno, but it clearly means that's comparing averages now to back then is not like for like.
Looking at the averages, you'd imagine that the difference accounts for about 10-15 points on the averages across the field. Better players will make marginally more than weaker players.
The outliers are the elite in their pomp, with Taylor smashing in regular, ridiculous averages (on a newer board for the time) around 2009-2012 and MvG doing the same (on a newer board for the time) around 2014-2017.
