Maybe they could kill two birds with one stone...

Hayne & Peats for Titans on the front and in their Parra gear on the back

Haha same could be said for many other clubs.
In all fairness they pretty much let them both walk out

 

[troy titans douglas]

Prefer a retro card of Luke o'dwyer and Matt Peterson

Brad Takarangi and Josh Hoffman parallel card?

 

[Parrapaul]

Brad Takarangi and Josh Hoffman parallel card?

They will be on the right together to start the season, not the worst right side in the game.

I'm a taka fan

Don't think they had a choice. Hayne comes across as doing what he wants and Peats due to cap issues. The latter was a big loss

Solid but no Leipana!!

I'm thankful that jason Taylor after he was appointed tigers coach passed on him after he had signed a 2-3 year contract with tigers

Was more talking about letting Hayne go early originally, not that contracts mean anything anymore

Have heard that Hayne still is a very poor trainer up there.

I think the choices for legends this year was poor, great players but far from legend status... Yet..

100%

The Legends concept was perfect when they were using players from the CORL top 100. Beaver was the exception last year but he was a current player in 08 and it could be argued had he been retired he may have gone close to that top 100.

So many other options, Clyde, ET, Daley, Mal, Eadie, Cronin, Sattler

He always was but if he delivers 2009 or 2014 form and doesn't unsettle everyone else too much I think it could be great for the titans.
Good chance he will probably just leave soon anyway

They should stick with players that have been retired for a while to give it more of a nostalgic touch each year

There is a 2017 Pokemon World Championship, maybe that will be his next dream.

Definitely. I have heard that this years Legends may be the last and there might be a special Traders release next year

 

[holycheif]

Warriors have a few options for a legends card.
Can't really say the same for titans. Best we've got is Mat Rogers

Preston Campbell maybe??

 

[Brendan_B]

Preston Campbell maybe??

I suppose you could claim the Lewis as yours given he played the last two years of his career there

 

[Parrapaul]

That sounds interesting!!!

Have to get through this years traders, extreme and elite first

There are so many legends they could of picked even if some of the top names are hard to chase down. Can't get ET to sign what about Gavin Miller, tommy bishop, even sparkles, Daley Clyde to busy, Gary belcher can sign between commentary!!! Mick Cronin would an awesome addition Stacey jones has been mentioned already,

I guess what is kinda sucky is bedsy signed back in 2013 so he has fresh autographs out there, and they wasted an opportunity for an older stars signature..

 

[Davebvd]

Anyone know yet if the Common and Pearl cards have different images?
