PWA tag team sensations, Mana & Manoush, join us ahead of their upcoming title match against North Shore's Wrestling's Sam & Jack Osborne to talk about their passion for their footy teams, for Origin and for their greater western Sydney roots.Things don't get out of hand as they throw shade at the fine pair of gentlemen that make up the Osbornes, but it was a close struck thing. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SEN Women's Origin commentator and Ladies Who League legend, Mary Konstantopoulos, joins us to talk all forms of Origin, Not So Magic round and the protocols surrounding fan forums.And her baby daughter, Peta Amelia, is on the show as well!Hear what happens when an Eels girl and a Sharks boy have a baby together and then have to provide counsel to the youngster as to who to barrack for.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Benji sprays some air freshener around the Zurich Centre, we’re joined by JR who shares all his NRL bugbears (which doesn’t include opinionated fans who aren’t club members). In fact, he ventilates some important matters that will help get rid of any odour of negativity around the game in general. Not sure if it’s enough to get to rid of the current whiff of desperation lingering around the Perth Bears though.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Doesn't matter whether you're James Bracey, the Perth Bears, the 6 again rule or the broadcaster of horse racing documentaries, you are in crisis. It's up to Fire Up! to pair up with celebrity Rabbitohs fan, PJ Lane, to try and repair the fabric of OUR game.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fire Up! is joined by Venues NSW and Sydney Roosters lawyer, Stephen Gorry, not dressed in a suit. It turns out there are better military ciphers than the landing at Gallipoli as the Dragons and the Storms suffered in manners resembling way more one sided wars.As always, Turbo's hammies and AI Gus feature.And we touch on the Jarome Luai trip to PNG and what it could mean. Well, it means that he can easily continue to afford the customised 'LUAI' number plates as it was confirmed that he's off to PNG in 2028 just after we turned off the mikes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sharknado Survivor, Peter Campbell, joins us to help underline why you should never accept the Chairman's invitation to breakfast. We cover off the departures of Flanno, Haran & The Menace. But our deadline meant that we missed the boning of Kyle in what's been a bad month of Kyles.Peter laments the Sharks' lack of consistency. Amens all round from all league fans.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Denis Carnahan returns to the co-host seat to provide a lot of Raiders chat you didn't know you needed.The Dragons coaching issue turns somewhat dark as talk turns to how much rope Flanno is entitled to when you are in the hot seat, now found on the sideline.And Denis gets the party started by setting the Stadium Australia car park to music on the occasions where Canterbury-Bankstown ends up ahead on the ledger.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode has it all. Winners (Gale's Tigers). Losers (Rose's Bulldogs). Byes (Charlie White's Roosters).We are joined by Charlie White (The Bye Round podcast and Triple M) and Andrew Rose (game day music guru and The Voice Of PWA) to bathe in a NRL Round 5 bubble bath that had everything.Foz resurrecting Manly at Easter time. Reece whistling while he pushes. Flanno understanding everything and, yet, nothing. But the highlight was the punter who suddenly realised that they broadcast the footy. "Hello microphone."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, we are joined by a man as lime green as Denis Carnahan in Dave Ray.We review the landscape at Shithouse Stadium as the glittering JJ Giltinan Shield run of 2025 is very much in the rear vision mirror of the Raiders bus right now. But Ricky is going up in the Maccas Universe.Anthony Seibold departs Brookie/4 Pines/Lottoland and you'd swear he and Dave are the same person when you hear the presser audio.And the Bunnies are heading to Allianz to the 'Home  Of The Sydney Roosters' as the Chooks yet again take ownership of the important conversations in rugby league.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Benji Marshall's standards have opened the profanity floodgates in 2026 as Gordie and Sticky turn the air blue.Fire Up!
