NRL expert tips and quality content from two experienced pros.
Gerard Condon
Having coached at a senior level for 16 years, including 3 years on the coaching staff of an NRL club, Gerard Condon is a long-term avid student of the game. He’s coached sides to win titles at a senior level, run the football arm of a successful district club, managed professional players and worked in various development roles, so it’s fair to say the game of Rugby League is certainly in his blood and supports an experienced and unique offering.
Mr G’s NRL previews and betting tips combine this knowledge and ‘read’ of the current weekly form with a statistical and betting analysis to provide his followers with a unique and successful approach. He spends hours each week watching and reviewing every game, assessing the form's strengths and weaknesses, then weighing them against the betting markets. His previews and betting tips have been published on the internet for the last 15 years while he also contributes each week to various podcast and sports radio NRL discussion.
Gerard Barton
GB started his rugby league story when playing at the age of six, running around in the bush for the Forbes Magpies before eventually landing at Dubbo CYMS. The highlight? Captaining the Dubbo CYMS Under 18s to a premiership – with a young bloke named Andrew Ryan watching on from the bench.
Like any mad Eels supporter, he went from screaming at the TV to putting his money where his mouth was. What began as casual NRL punting slowly evolved into something much deeper – a full-blown obsession with data analysis. A love for the game then grew into a love for what the play and stats can and can't tell you about the outcome. But here's what matters: GB is a footy headfirst, and self-taught maths and data nerd second. You've got to know the game before you crunch the numbers. Stats don't play football – blokes do. Understanding that distinction is everything.
These days, Gerard is deep into modelling the key performance areas that actually influence outcomes. Pre-game team forecasts, AI-assisted analysis, the works. It's about finding the edge where footy knowledge meets data science.

Flexible Subscriptions
Start with as little as 4 or 5 week subscriptions!
We don’t play smoke and mirrors and look to lock any subscriber into long term up front subscriptions or reoccurring charges. We deliberately offer options that commence with as little as a 4 or 5 week period so that anyone can look, test and trial any of our sports and horse racing previews and betting tips for a short period to see if they like what we do. For those who wish to renew and take out longer term subscription periods we then offer these options with additional discounts.
Some online offerings ask for $60, $70 or $90 a week?
Our goal has always been quality content and work from experienced pros for the cost of a round of drinks each week! Our long term results over many years speak for themselves.
No lock in long term contracts!
No reoccurring charges!
