We welcome Wests Tigers fanatic and podcaster Kelly Hollis to the show this week while our hosts discuss Harry Grant's acting skills, the contaminated sand of Allianz, Brandon Smith vs the Gold Coast Airport, the forlorn figure of DCE, Flanno's knowledge of the rules and what on earth happened to Bon Jovi.

This week it seems the travails of several NRL venues are all over the news and we wholeheartedly embrace the discussion! From The Gateway to Hell and the hot springs under Allianz to the idea of relocating the Roosters to Mudgee we leave no stone unturned. Denis Carnahan goes back to the 80's with Big Club Theory and we discuss "Spoonbowl" and much, much more. Thanks for listening x See omnystudi...

It's not very often that our hosts get to bask in the rarefied air of the lowly Tigers and Dragons both winning on a weekend - and beating the top 2 teams in the comp, but it seems they'd prefer to concentrate on the true bad boys of Rugby League - the journalists! Have a listen to see what they're on about....as always it's the best alternative look at League going around See omnystudio.com/liste...

This week's guest is the incredibly talented Denis Carnahan, who you all know from his weekly NRL satire songs that we a the ABC both feature. As a lifelong Raiders fan, he shares his feelings as they move into flag favouritism. We also discuss dictators, sentimental favourites, the Putin-like regime changes at the Dragons, and, as always, much, much more. Thanks for listening :) See omnystudio.co...

Is every NRL team trying to find their "soul"? Have "The Big Clubs" found theirs? Is Hefron Park haunted? What of the Roosters Undead? Where will the Wollongong Dragons find theirs? Has Tim Tszuyu had his soul taken? In this Hammer Horror Edition of Fire Up!, our hosts examine the existential underpinnings of the NRL sporting landscape. Thanks for listening zombies See omnystudio.com/listener for...

Still smarting from the Origin stinker last Wednesday night, our hosts complain about the game, the traffic, queue jumpers, the music - Dear God, the "music" - and furthermore aren't alleviated by their own teams losses on the weekend. They also discuss the Coaching Carousel, Ponga, Foran, Bennett, Seibold, Ming The Merciless and MUCH, MUCH MORE. Thanks for listening. It can only get better. See o...

This week our hosts discuss the controversial new documentary Agent Of Chaos to find out who is really pulling the strings in the NRL, as well as previewing tomorrow night's deciding State Of Origin.

Sorry listeners, our hosts are still in the medical room - back next week for sure! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Apologies League Lovers, but our starting backrowers Ferris & Gale have been struck low by one of the multiple viruses coursing through Sydney this week and were unable to suit up today. Hopefully they'll be back fit and firing for next week's atrocities. Stay tuned and stay healthy See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week our hosts dive deep into dreams, those that come true and those that don't, from Indiana Carroll's Dallas Cowboy's audition to the Perth Meningas, from the PVL Jet to SOO#2. Denis Carnahan sings an ode to Josh Papalii, and they address the Club in Crisis de Jour - with the Sea Eagles Under Siege and their premiership dream in tatters. And as always, Stephen dreams of the day when the Dra...

While there is an awful lot for our hosts to talk about this week - and trust us they do! - from the dull State of Origin Buildup to The Enhanced Games to SBW v Gal, one topic absolutely dominates this week, what we like to call "The Life and Times of Gus Gould." It's a lot.  Tune in, and let us know what you think. See you on the Park.     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy in...

With State OF Origin (Men's) just around the corner and State OF Origin (Women's) a torrential success story this week, it somehow still feels like its' A Glittering New Year in Bat Country. Everything is topsy turvy, but somehow it all still fells the same. Is the levee gonna break? While it was a great weekend for hookers,  it appears there is a DEARTH of fullbacks for SOO. Wingers are outm...

Another topsy turvy week in NRL world leaves tipsters scrambling, rules akimbo, and a too many questions for most mortals to deal with. Fortunately our hosts are all over the issues, from Robot Marathonners to The Jetsons to Latrell's trick play to "wetting" the ball, so listen in and let them make sense of it all. For you. You're welcome :) With a cracking song by Denis Carnahan. Tune in, switch...

On a bigly losing weekend for Queenslanders in Rugby League and Politics, one of our hosts went to Magic Round, and the other didn't....we get a full analysis from both sides of the border, discussing the Heroes and Villains of the weekend, with a song from Denis Carnahan. That sounds like a good thing to listen to..... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A dramatic Anzac Round with ever-dimishing entertainment value (Where's the Black Hawks FFS!?)  throws up plenty of controversy from the Lachie Galvin saga to new head high tackle interpretations, from the international expansion intentions of the Manchester Chooks to the local expansion aspirations of the Western Bears, or should they be called "The Western Rare Earth Minerals?" Our. hosts d...

On a bizarro weekend where JD Vance probably finished off the Pope, the Stawell Gift forgot to include the 2 fastest runners in the country in the main race and Lachie Galvin had an armed guard at The Zurich Centre, we had some incredible - dare we say "biblical" - games of football, replete with multiple tales of redemption, resurrection, a bevy of Moses's (Mosi?) and paths to the Promised Land....

In a week where Rugby League just keeps on giving, our hosts discuss the 2 major controversies of the week, namely the polite conversation between mates where Spencer  Leniu and Johnathon Thurston exchanged pleasantries, and GalvinGate, whereby the 19 year old Tigers Wunderkind has politely declined the Tiges new contract offer.  All good stuff. Tune in for the whole shebang. See omnystu...

Our hosts Stephen Ferris & Kris Gale dissect a week of barbaric ballet, total carnage on all fronts, from "Liberation Day" to the finale of White Lotus, from gunslingers at the MCG to all-in brawls at Allianz, from Dutton kicking an AFL ball through a photographer’s head to Abdo cracking down on the entire NRL code. That's right, CARNAGE across all the codes! Tune in for this and mu...

Our hosts this week dive deeper into the DCE "Smear Campaign" claims and ultimately find Smear Campaigns are everywhere, an inescapable part of every club. Or are they? They also look into the extreme abundance of NRL Media shows all clamouring for attention, and Stephen vents yet again about his usual bugbears regarding St. George and the Illawarra.... Plus, as always, much much more....thanks fo...

Can't make sense out of the world? Feeling confused? Well listen in as we make a WHOLE lot of sense dissecting the incredible week that was in Rugby League.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a couple of Rounds of footy the winners and losers are starting to identify themselves and while our hosts identify the leading contenders at both ends of the ladder they also discuss important issues like the cost and quality of Pies, the Bulldogs' Mobile Disco, Billy Knowles' hamstring factory and just WHO is the smartest man (or woman) in Rugby League? Tune in HARD for the full range of i...
