Gaw's Rant: July 2010
http://themightygaw.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 19, 2010. Just like old times. Sometimes people ask me why I support the Bulldogs even though I grew up in the Eastern Suburbs where I still live. This blog post is the best answer I can give. I remember the early 1990s rugby league heyday. Back then the comp was called the Winfield Cup, there were no joint ventures and Tina Turner's "The Best" spruiked. The code on television screens across NSW. Every weekend, a bunch of us would meet outside Grace Bros in Bondi. The core group of us was Cl...

Gaw's Rant: How did my NRL finals week 1 predictions go?
http://themightygaw.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-did-my-nrl-finals-week-1.html
Monday, September 13, 2010. How did my NRL finals week 1 predictions go? I am a man of modesty. But I think I was pretty dead-on with my picks last weekend. Here's what I said and what actually happened. St George will decimate a depleted Sea Eagles side and fly to the preliminary final with momentum on their side":. Now it's true that the depleted Manly gallantly held the Dragons to just one try until the 64 th. Called the Dragons "controlled, measured, patient and methodical" in their performance.

Gaw's Rant: April 2010
http://themightygaw.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 23, 2010. A Storm of Controversy. Rugby League's Melbourne expansion experiment is dead. Once again our great game is making headlines for all the wrong reasons, only this time it's the biggest controversy since the Bulldogs salary cap saga of 2002. The Melbourne Storm, previously labelled the "Team of the decade" and on their way to establishing a bona. Dynasty after being premiership favourites again this year, have been exposed to have been rorting. And once the other 15 NRL. Clubs pick ...

Gaw's Rant: June 2013

Friday, June 14, 2013. NRL - Gaw's mid-season report card for every team. With 13 rounds gone, season 2013 has most certainly had its share of excitement. New stars have emerged while others have struggled. Some teams have excelled while others have under-delivered. Where does your team sit? Glory, glory to South Sydney? Are the Roosters the real deal? The Sydney Roosters’ great form has caught everyone by surprise in 2013 and propelled pivot James Maloney into Origin footy. The Chooks appear w...The Sea...

Gaw's Rant: June 2010

Thursday, June 24, 2010. Who should play in Origin III? The series is lost. Queensland have once again shown that they are the far superior team. Origin II was nothing short of a nightmare for Blues fans. Origin III presents a chance to try and regain some pride by avoiding a whitewash, but how realistic is this? The Maroons are THAT good that any team NSW. Fields is likely to end up on the wrong side of the scoreline. Stick with the team that got obliterated in game II? At fullback. Even though he h...

Gaw's Rant: August 2009
http://themightygaw.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 31, 2009. Three Weeks is a Long Time in Rugby League. Indeed, in the world of Gaw's. Rant just three short weeks ago, the Dragons had the minor premiership sewn up, the Cowboys were a finals certainty and Brisbane and Newcastle were gone. How quickly things change. In the meantime, the Broncos, who seemed gone for 2009 just three weeks ago, are enjoying a red hot winning streak and could finish as high as fourth if the Storm and Sea Eagles both go down in the final round. And indeed the Dr...

Gaw's Rant: March 2010
http://themightygaw.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 9, 2010. My yearly "NRL is back! I cannot wait for the action to start. As it always is at this time of year – the big questions dominate the footy faithful. Who is going to win it this year? Who will be the most improved? Which players are set to make an impact? Which club will be the year's big surprise? The answers will be revealed over the next six and a half months, but in the meantime, here is my club-by-club analysis for season 2010. Where is your club? St George Illawarra Dragons.
