*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*

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!

In a week where carrot related content on Shiva’s social media grew exponentially after another all-time performance from our Statsman, there was also some pretty ordinary footy to watch. Some big time fantasy names produced some big time fantasy scores but not everyone shared in the spoils. Let’s break it down vertically, not horizontally on the SHIVA BLAST! Mwaaaaah

It was a week of high scores and bad beats. How bad? We’ve got the Statsman back to help us out. Waiting for him is perhaps his achilles heel, as Seags has demanded his spot back in the chair as co-host. Edits may be required. The fixtures for footy entertainment look dire for Thursday and Friday, so thank Shiva for Fantasy Football, and of course for the SHIVA BLAST!

6 rounds in and despite an extended Easter footy weekend, we’re now well into the rhythm of the year. Wednesday pod, Thursday teams, Friday loophole, Saturday lockout, Sunday crying. Repeat. So like a long-term relationship needing some excitement, lets spice things up with a quickie, it’s the SHIVA BLAST!

Sometimes with these early round mini-byes, it can feel like you’re playing with one arm tied behind your back, but while injuries and suspensions are starting to build there’s one glorious silver lining. 7 consecutive full rounds coming up. It’s a sight to behold. Gather round, it’s the SHIVA BLAST!

It's a big week in Shiva. Keeper will drop their first (and arguably most season defining) positional additions and we break down the Shiva specific settings and implications. Plus, if you listened to last week's podcast you know that something mysterious went down - BennyMaccas's back and questions are asked! Don't miss this week's Shiva Blast!

Two rounds in and patience has become an important commodity - even the podcast has dropped slightly later than usual. Though to be fair, that's more due to the heavy edit required as Coach Seags guest co-hosts! Bacon is in with plenty of stats and the Shiva Open Line welcomes first-time coaches to the SHIVA BLAST!
