As we draw firmly in to the business end of the season we welcome guests Michael Carayannis, journalist for the Daily Astonisher amongst many other roles, and ABC satirist Denis Carnahan to the studio to discuss the RLPA v NRL negotiations, moral victories, Sticky Ricky, Billy Slater and "the General Public," the Bunker - a necessary evil?, and of course delve deeply in to the Melbourne Gargoyles and their recent round of backslapping.

It's all rather entertaining, educational and at times even slightly comical, if you like that sort of thing.

Thanks for listening League Lovers :)

Carayannis and Carnahan!

It's Round 2, 2026 and already things are falling apart. Anthony Siebold is sleeping fitfully after Manly-Warringah disintegrated in front of the eyes of all at Lottoland. The Knights can't keep their millionaires on the field. The Sydney Roosters can't keep their fans off the field (and their players on bikes) anymore. And the refs can't keep their lips off those damn whistles.
Thanks heavens for Emma Domoney and Alby Talarico who join us to talk about their Vegas immersive experiences and can report that the Glitter Strip is as stitched together as it ever has been.
And please get behind Emma's tilt in the Mothers Day Classic through the below link:https://www.mothersdayclassic.com.au/fundraisers/emmadomoney135358/mothers-day-classic-sydney

It's not even halfway  through Round 1 in the NRL and the blaming has begun.Vegas united Ming The Merciless and Flanno in misery as they failed to get the (gulp) 'rub of the green'.Redfern Pat is on board to peel back all that went down on the Glitter Strip (including Joe Burgess?) and to bid adieu to Buzz in fine style.And we realise that PVL & Buzz are still on opposite sides of our game. In this case, it's a matter of diet.
