Can anyone confirm that card 193 onwards were only produced as a foils?

Its my understanding (right or wrong) that cards 1-192 were produced as both foils and commons.

Any clarification appreciated!

You had the 16 teams and each had 12 cards making 192 team cards which came in both regular and foil finish. The Captains cards, Mascot cards and Dally M cards from 193 to 240 only came in foil.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

You are correct.

1-192 plain and foil.
193-240 foil only (captain cards, mascots, Dally M winners).

While we are on the topic of these does anybody have any spares floating around? I'm chasing 2 normal finish cards and about 20 foil finiish ones...

 

[BLADE]

Which ones Jeremy and I will have a look.

 

[Wellsie]

Normal Finish - 40, 135
Foil Finish - 1, 7, 13, 17, 44, 46, 81, 83, 84, 86, 101, 102, 108, 109, 112, 152, 164, 173 & 189

Awesome thanks for that info

Makes it a pain if you want to collect a set of each as you effectively end up with an identical double set of #'s 193-240

Interesting point of view Wellsie

I wouldn't consider that necessary, to me the complete set is 192 + 192 + 48

I hadn't actually looked at it that way.
You do raise a good point there, although that does leave you with a half full album if using 2 albums to display them.
