This week on Origin eve:

• Origin Talk - Is the QLD spirit really Darren Lockyer distilled into a bottle? We put on our Hawaiian shirts and cue up to discover. In other news, we are not happy with the person running the Bronco’s twitter feed and their lack of respect for Mick “Staple Head” Devere. Eligibility rules are also at the forefront as we put forward a few novel ideas to end the age old arguments.

• Jumping on the Bandwagon - Multiple NRL bandwagons have bitten the dust like Wile E. Coyote at the bottom of a canyon. We’ve decided to jump aboard the Titans. Who they play next week...we don’t really know.

• UNIMMORTAL - Wayne Bennett’s lovechild Scott Minto..nuff said. True NRL (kinda) great.

• Raiders vs the Storm - Pedro talks about the Raiders non-existent defence and Lobby has to delve into the recent history books to come up with a flimsy argument.

• Refs as personalities - We encourage NRL refs to show more love for the game in the hope of getting some quality new recruits. We don’t discriminate...they can own a giant plasma or a 34cm Teac. They better practice up on the art of magic though.

• Fanmail - Nathan got a bit sticky over vaseline tactics that he wanted us to discuss

Whether you drink XXXX Gold or something else that is actually mildly potable, we’d love to hear from you. Also, if you know of a spirit distilled in NSW you can drop us an email at leaguebythefireplace@gmail.com, hit us up on Facebook, Twitter or on iTunes.

Enjoy.
