The Mighty Bears is an Australian DVD series that focuses on the sporting history of the North Sydney District Rugby League Football Club, also known under the team name of the North Sydney Bears.

The series tells the story from 1870 when team sport such as cricket started in Australia to 1908 when North Sydney became a foundation member of the newly created Rugby League Football in Australia right through the 20th century to their very last game in 1999 at North Sydney Oval.

The narrative was told through interviews with 58 famous players, coaches, officials, supporters, families and historians.

The series was also critically acclaimed in the media [1][2][3][4] with the late prominent novelist and play writer Alex Buzo calling it “…a masterpiece of its kind…” in his review published in The Sydney Morning Herald in January 2003 shortly after the first volumes were released in 2002.

Although Mr. Buzo was a Bears fan, the continuing sales of the series years after completion does give this some sort of credibility.
