We are joined by Shaun "Tiger" Mielekamp, Wests Tigers CEO, to discuss the NRLW (and the NRL) Finals, the secret life of plastic plants and what's been a packed first year in the job. And we learn that he likes to get his grunge on.

Despite being anything but in the game, the Newcastle Knights still almost had the fairytale finish everyone was wishing for (even Roosters fans). But our game is one of no quarter asked for or given and dreams often come crashing down. To reflect on the biggest week in league, we are joined by Yvonne Sampson from Fox League and PJ Lane of no fixed address. Their combined wisdom gives us the only answer to dashed hopes and bleak results: Fire Up!

Fractured Fairy Tale

Fire Up! adds to the great father/son combinations if rugby league by welcoming Dave & Josh Ray to the mike. As Kurt Cobain once put it so well, we say to PVL, "Here we are now. Entertain us." And after the disappointments of Deans and Tones, he is now promising us 11 minutes of joy this Sunday. We review how we got to the  Chooks v Knights/Broncos in the GF cheeseburger. And, oh Bullfrog Ritchie, you've done it again!

11 Minutes Of Joy

Fire Up! icon, Redfern Pat, returns to the mike to talk all things footy bunker and footy punter. The NRL Finals got into full swing last weekend but the hip pocket continued to take a hit and they stayed away in droves...or did they?The NRLW  instigates its own Deflategate, the Fox falls foul (fowl?) of the Inner West hipsters [allegedly] and we cast an eye over another tale from music history from Matty Johns.
