Fergal Sheils of the Big House Eagles
Week two of the Heineken-sponsored Dundalk and District Dart League saw a number of intriguing fixtures take place.
In the Commercial, The Avenue Inn were the visitors against The Commercial Club. Seamus Rice (player of the match for the visitors) continued on from his victory last week with another fine performance.

Aaron Coyne (player of the match for The Commercial) restores parity with a 3-1 win. Paddy Kearney put the visitors back in front with a gritty win over John Rafferty.
Captain Niall Hinchey restored parity again before Ciaran Treanor had a narrow win over Gary Loughran (15 100+ scores between them) before Kevin Thompson won the last game for the visitors and a share of the points.
Meanwhile, in the Northend Bar, Commercial Classics were the visitors away to Northend Green. Paddy Gibney put the home team one up, coming from 2-0 down to record the win.
Next up was someone who is no stranger to being in the spotlight, the Flying Scotsman, Peter Cherrie. Peter raced into a 2-0 lead before Mark Flynn dug deep to level it at 2-2. Peter went on to win the decider to put the hosts 2-0 up.
The Commercial Classics showed they're no pushovers with the ever-youthful John Bradshaw and then Aidan D'orey (player of the match for the visitors), both winning for the visitors to make it 2-2.
Next up, Hughie Shields put in a player of the match for the hosts to put his team 3-2 up. The next game saw Johnny Knobloch against Gary Shevlin.
Gary won the first before Johnny won the next two before Gary won the next to put it to the decider. Johnny dug deep and, despite Gary's best efforts, Johnny hit the winning double to secure the win for his team.
In Division Two, in the Phoenix Bar, wins for Michael McAlester, Fintan Rogers and Jordan McInerney put the home team in the driving seat against Bodhran Bandits.
Stephen Wehrly pulled one back for the visitors before Armando Baltazar secured the win with a narrow win over Brian Mc Ardle.
