2024 Elite NRL Official Thread

I’d say late July for the checklist
What are your picks for Panthers sigs? Thinking Liam Martin has to be the League Sensation. Only threepeater yet to get an sig outside premier set.
Couldn’t do worse than Blacker as young gun last year, but I’d be gutted if Taylan May gets it. Expect Smith and Henry.

I really hope Elite goes back to Club patch cards. All Stars game now a non-event.

Id love to see Marto be the league sensation for the team and either Cole/Henry or Smith to be the YG auto.

I think with your last point re Patches you will be happy (well at least until November) and let me just say ive heard there are some GREAT Panthers cards in this release!

I may need to sell my remaining liver or kidney!
 
Both colours blended in? That would look pretty cool actually I reckon

Inglis Master series has me intrigued. Guessing we'll get 3 storm, 4 souths, 6 Qld and 5 Aus plus the autos - betting the 08-09 Aus one will have the heritage jumper from the "freak try" game.
Would love to see more NSW in the masters series but most of the more recent retirees are controversial and/or unco-operative. Maybe a Joey?
In for an SJ auto if the team colour variant looks good too. Wonder who Souths will have - hopefully Cook or Tom get one before they leave

So far we have had....

20 - Slater
21 - Boyd
22 - Fittler
23 - Thurston
24 - Inglis

Thinking of who they could have for NSW that has also played for Australia more recent ones.....

Gallen?
Daley?
Johns?
Stuart?
Clyde?
Lazarus?
Menzies?

Looking further back.....

Roach?
Sterling?
Kenny? etc....

Think any of them would be great choices?

What are the requirements for master series. Do you need to have won multiple premierships and origin series to be eligible? Hindy and Bmoz could be options

Think its the case of being successful at all 3 levels of the game.

Winning Premierships, Origin Series and Tests/World Cups.

First one of those criteria would rule out Hindy im afraid!

Bmoz could be an option but I think there are quite a few ahead of him.

Most of those players seem pretty good. Given the fiasco with Gallen and 2020 Elite I doubt we'll see him for one of these but who knows

Bmoz with 2 comps, 1 origin (against the best origin squad ever), 1 World Cup, 1 4 nations and 5th highest try scorer in history is a fair resume. Arguably above Gallen who isn’t best mates with TLA.

Most of the others already have legends sigs, masters seems to be a more recent retiree type set.

Boyd cordner a good shout. Teddy would be due not long after he retires. Both winning captains at all 3 levels.

Cordner is another good one!
 
I like the Master Series, it is the only Elite subset I chase (aside from a few Raiders inserts). The only aspect I would like to see is some consistency in the set numbering. Ideally 15 so the signatures could make the set total to 18.

The signature cards look excellent in hand, hopefully we get a different club each year.
 
I think they generally use images of players who played in rounds 1-4 which unfortunately Sua didn’t.

Maybe Pezet or Chan?
