Episode 1 - In the beginning-ing-er

So we are going to claim this as our first official episode. Sit back and prepare to get your belly full of poddy goodness.
This week we discuss:
  • Leichhardt Oval - The sights, the smells and making friends for life in the beer queue
  • “The Bellamy Effect” - A player leaves the Storm and their career goes down hill. Once they remove themselves from the glorious Bellamy teet, how long will they survive in the big bad wild of the NRL?
  • Wrestling - Is it only the domain of those such as Hulk Hogan and fat Japanese blokes or is it a creative force in Rugby League? Does Barney Rubble play for South Sydney?
  • Lobby has a gripe with the Bulldogs - They don’t want to go through the labour pains and subsequent stretch marks of “birthing” a premiership. Especially if it involes cross species lurve.
  • Shout out to Kingy - Are you even listening to us Matt King? Don’t be shy, we can play some backyard cricket.
  • Amateur Biology 101 - Do you ever hear mainstream football media get deep about science? Nature vs Nurture…the Morris twins. 
  • Amateur Geography - If NSW didn’t exist, QLD would border Victoria. You deserve each other you scumbags. Is it too early for Origin talk?
  • “Salary Cap Cops”  - Ian Schubert (supposed Salary Cap Auditor) has 7 day weekends, almost every weekend. We try and give this bludger some hints on how to do his job
As always, you can hit us up on our email (leaguebythefire@gmail.com) or Facebook or Twitter or just find us in the street & abuse us.

Episode PILOT - In the Beginning...

To Download Episode - CLICK HERE

Welcome to the Pilot episode of League by the Fireplace: An NRL Podcast. This was going to be a test run but, as there were many relevant & irreverent comments made (some hilarious, some hilariously offensive), we decided to put it up.

In this episode we discuss the following:
  • Predictions 2012 - Premiers, wooden spooners, potential enemies, Dally M
  • Raiders Vs The Storm - A chance for Lobby & Pedro to vent their frustrations with the aforementioned team with which they have no alliances.
  • Justin Hodges - Enough said.
  • Shout out to Kingy - Pedro really wants Matt King to come on the show. No seriously, its kinda creepy.
  • Fantasy League - Its effect on players & its potential to become an issue with Ian Schubert: The NRL Auditor
Please email us (leaguebythefire@gmail.com) or hit us up on Facebook or Twitter with any comments, constructive / destructive critisism, and all other interesting anecdotes.

So the NRL season has begun. And soon as well as digesting the games every week you will have a tasty aperitif/digestif in the form of our podcast to make it all a little bit more special.

Locked away in our wood cabin, debating the merits of Souths having 5 captains we will soon serve up this feast of the aural senses. Delicious! (end metaphor)

Toasty, isn’t it?
