13 Pro-Am Community Rugby League Show Episode 17

Here is the synopsis for Episode 17 - Dave Parkinson and Steve Beech settle back into the saddle for another packed edition of the 13 Pro‑Am Community Rugby League Show — and this week, the community game gives them plenty to chew on. The centrepiece of the episode is a bazzer: Thatto Heath Crusaders vs Waterhead ARLFC, a game that delivered every ounce of drama you’d expect from two sides who simply refuse to back down. The 24‑24 draw felt like a fair result, but only because neither team deserved to lose. To get under the skin of it, the lads bring reaction from James Perks — who was outstanding around the ruck — and Jon Perks, offering the assistant coach’s view on where Waterhead stood tall and where they’ll look to sharpen up. There’s an added treat too: exclusive audio highlights from Dave and Ste’s own commentary, capturing the tempo, the turning points, and the sheer grit on display. The show then shifts to Hunslet ARLFC, where Hunslet ARLFC TV’s John Boyd sits down with Director of Rugby Jamie Fields to talk through the headline news — the return of the McShane brothers, a move that’s already got the Premier Division buzzing. From there, it’s up to Cumbria, where the brilliant John Walsh brings his trademark insight in conversation with Ian Rooney, breaking down everything happening at Wath Brow Hornets and what their next steps look like. As always, Dave and Ste round things out with a full sweep of NCRL results, picking out the stories that matter, before casting an eye over this weekend’s fixtures and the match‑ups that could shift the landscape again.

13 Pro-Am Community Rugby League Show Episode 16

Episode 16 – 13 Pro‑Am Community Rugby League Show Dave and Ste are back together in the studio, opening the show with a deep dive into an NCRL Premier Division classic — a fierce, momentum‑swinging battle between Wigan St Judes and West Bowling that had everything you want from community rugby league. Ste caught up post‑match with St Judes head coach Dave Myerscough and flying winger Reece McNally, who both reflect on the intensity of the contest, the moments that mattered, and what the performance says about Judes’ direction of travel. From there, the lads sweep through the rest of the Premier Division and First Division results, picking out the scorelines that shaped the weekend and the stories emerging across the competition. The show then drops in on Waterhead, where assistant coach Jon Perks offers a candid look at their season so far — the early inconsistency, the new faces bedding in, and the way those pieces have finally clicked into place to produce a six‑match winning streak. With momentum behind them and belief growing, Perks looks ahead to a big test at Thatto Heath, a fixture that will say plenty about where Waterhead truly are in their Premier Division journey. And up in Cumbria, the Cumbrian Crack brings voices from across the region, with Peter Smith (Kells), Brad Crellin (Millom) and Mark Foster (Maryport) all sharing their thoughts at the heart of the Cumbrian game. Episode 16 is packed with voices, results and real community rugby league energy — a proper return to full strength for Dave and Ste

13 Pro-Am Community Rugby League Show Episode 15

Episode 15 – 13 Pro‑Am Community Rugby League Show Ste’s back, thank heavens — and the lads have plenty to get stuck into. After a week away, Ste Beech returns to the fold and rejoins Dave Parkinson, and the timing couldn’t be better. There’s a full slate of results to sift through, and the weekend served up more than a few talking points. Top of the agenda is Waterhead Warriors’ eye‑catching win at Hunslet ARLFC — a result that turned heads across the Premier Division. To dig into it properly, the lads bring in reaction from Jamie Field and Josh McClelland, courtesy of Hunslet ARLFC TV, offering honest reflections on what went right, what went wrong, and what comes next. Dave was on the road too, heading up to Kells, and he came away impressed as they put together a strong performance to beat East Leeds. We hear from head coach Peter Smith, who breaks down the win with trademark clarity, and from prolific scorer Clarke Chambers, who continues to be one of the division’s most reliable finishers. There’s no shortage of stories elsewhere either. As the lads run through all the results, they pause for a fascinating bit of insight from Distington head coach Ryan Hodson, who offers a candid look at where his side stands and what they’re building toward. That’s paired with context and colour from Cumbria Crack’s own John Walsh, whose perspective always adds weight. And to round things off, Mark Foster gives his summary to Cumbria Crack after Maryport’s win over Seaton Rangers, a result that says plenty about Maryport’s resilience and growing confidence. Episode 15 is one of those shows where everything clicks — Ste’s return, Dave’s on‑the‑ground reporting, strong voices from across the community game, and a set of results that genuinely move the story of the season forward.
