Across 828 coaches there’ll have be some that experienced their last straw on the weekend. Another Bailey Smith late out, an unlikely sub vest, an LDU concussion, an injury. With 3 rounds to go pre-finals the small margins are going hurt even more. Speaking of small margins, this week we announce the song contest winner and it was CLOSE. We’ll analyse the small things, and i’m not talking about Benny, on this week’s SHIVA BLAST!
Plus who is the Song Contest winner?

The byes are over and we are instantly down to business. 4 weeks remain before the finals and every team has something to play for - whether it’s pushing for Top 2 and a week off, a Top 6 finals berth or prepping for a scrap to avoid relegation. There’s added pressure for 16 of our coaches too with the Knockout Competition back on. Plus there’s the business of announcing our Song Contest finalists. It’s a full book on this week’s SHIVA BLAST!

Unlucky Round 13. We haven’t played it in the bye era and half the competition will be wishing that was still the case. Did a round of low scores in the real game translate to the same in Shiva? We’ll find out as we move towards the mid-way point of the byes and the song contest. This is the SHIVA BLAST!

1 bye round down, 4 to go. The good news? This week it SHOULD be the easiest of the weeks with Best 15 and only 2 teams missing. To celebrate, it’s a bye themed podcast and we’re aiming to give you 16.666 percent less content than usual. That’s right, it’s the SHIVA BLAS!

*Some weeks are tougher than others and we ran into a bunch of technical issues with this record. Thanks especially to Seags and Bacon who showed a huge amount of patience and made sure the episode still went ahead*
This week we enter the mid-season byes and a new frontier for Shiva as for the first time since their cursed introduction, we forge forward with no pausing of fixtures. Best 15 scoring might cushion the impact, but when you consider there’s 4 teams missing as well as ever accumulating injuries - things are about to get tricky. Let’s pick it apart on the SHIVA BLAST!

We’re at the halfway point of the minor rounds which means it’s time for some reflection. Has Shiva blessed you with good luck or has it been an ordeal? Have bad decisions haunted you or maybe some savvy waiver acquisitions or trades have sent you up the ladder? There’s still time to change your fortunes for better or worse of course, and there’s time for this week’s SHIVA BLAST!

It was a round of close finishes in the AFL but perhaps the hardest beat of the weekend was a Top 10 of the round scoring Shiva team copping a loss. Shiva can be a harsh mistress at times. Let's dive in on a fun-sized SHIVA BLAST!
