The byes are here and Shiva lays dormant for a month, but there's plenty to reflect upon after the first 11 rounds of the season. Plus, there's a Song Contest to prepare for and co-hosts to put into uncomfortable positions so what better reason to tune into the latest SHIVA BLAST!

You know it's been an interesting week when the Commish has had to boot someone from the comp, but we're here to tell you that no matter what your win/loss record is looking like at the moment, there's always SOMETHING to fight for in Shiva. There's Stat Offs, songs and spontaneity aplenty in the latest SHIVA BLAST!

It was a round of pleasure and pain in equal measure, so on this week's podcast we've tried to tip into the pleasure side with the return of our favourite international correspondent Coach Seags. Meanwhile, our cashmere covered Statsman is riding high after a huge week and there's been a bloodbath amongst our highest seeded knockout contestants. It's a big episode of the SHIVA BLAST!

Whether you're making enemies on podcasts, finding rivals within your leagues or going toe to toe with a knockout opponent, there's both incredible and heartbreaking stories continuing to emerge from right across Shiva. On this week's episode we find new pod un-friends, set a date for the new Shiva Song Contest and Coach Bacon is put to the test in the Stat Off against first time contributor Coach Brett.

We've hit our first big turning point of the Shiva season. Mini-byes done, DPP's in and now the Knockout competition is here. There's plenty of news and upon BennyMacca's return both he and Bacon draw lines in the sand, there's beefing afoot on the SHIVA BLAST!

Some rounds are just tougher than others and Round 5 had plenty to throw at us. Awful scores from high draft picks, injuries, subs, the works. The good news? A couple of remarkable coaches are putting their name up in lights and no BennyMacca. Welcome to Coach Seags! It’s time to SHIVA BLAST! 

Need some Shiva inspiration this week? How about a hearty public Shiva Blast from a slightly edited Hill conversation with the ex-Commissioner. Or how about an almighty scoring turnaround that we can all aspire to. You'll get both of those things and more on this week's SHIVA BLAST!
