Rugby League World Cup Cards

[Bronco79]

Hi,

Over the past year, have seen on ebay various years of Rugby League World Cup Cards but can't find them listed in any books that I have on trading cards. Just wondering if anyone has any info on these cards. Am looking for the year they were released, who released them, number of cards in the set, list of players in each set. Any help would be much appreciated.

Oh no.....

These cards date back to 2003 (As far as I know) there are quite a few variations throughout the years.

- NRL sets
- Super League Sets
- World Cup sets
- 4 Nations sets

They vary in released amounts, Size and Quality...
But overall are very handy releases. The older ones are all but exhausted now and very hard to get, They usually sell for good money!!
- Not quite the $20/Card that ole Stevie boy charges... But good money all the same!!

Have a couple of them on there but these are a work in progress. Some of the older ones are hard to get hold of.

Maybe your next project now you have conquered the Maggi cards @batboy ?

Not worth the very flimsy cardboard they are printed on, imo.

You're kidding mate!!
As soon as I conquer the 2001 origin cards, my conquests are done... Retired!!
