2011 Series 2

[tak35bne]

I have spoken to Select today ans they confirmed the second set will be out but they do not have a release date yet or details of the cards that will come out.

I would like to see a Origin Legends set that is then turned into a signature set - but Select probably dont want to pay license fees to the NRL and ARL.

I do believe the QRL has asked too much money in the past for Queensland SOO cards etc...............now I will throw this out there, what about a Referee / Rules combined subset, Ref on the front and rules on the reverse, highlight the great refs of the past and present??

I would love to see a Lockyer sign or tribute set

I agree with 1967Sharks I think Lockyer has been done enough latley.....maybe again in a few years time on induction into the Immortals

Imagine the Grasshoppers on the back it would simply say Penalty to the Maroons.........

I think any future Immortals Sigs should be done in the exact style as the 2008s. Select really need to lift their game. With the price we have to pay for a case/box it is an outrage they cant even do game used jersey cards.
I really think though that AFL Platinum Draft Sigs from 2008 (I think) were one of the best ideas they have ever had. It would be the same as Top Prospects except they have a Platinum finish, 1:6 Box ratio (I think) and #/100. It turns great Top Prospects into instant high end.
You definately need a 1:2 Box insert (I wouldnt mind if they continue the Star Sigs from Champions as it is a definate upgrade from Double Troubles).

 

[rowdy7070]

never enough lockyer sigs or maybe another wally lewis signature

 

[shane_sharks]

like to see some different sigs not the same teams over and over

 

[MrX]

never enough lockyer sigs or maybe another wally lewis signature

If not a Sig for Lockyer - how about Case Card 300 games

 

[mischap123]

FoR something differrent I'd like to see a Moments in League sub series, it could be Moments in origin / GF Moments / Big shots I for one am tired of 2 x base sets eg 190 commons and a 190 jersey card set, how about some action shots, something completley differrent, something that celebrates the game not just repetitive profile shots

For example:

Wally and MG nose to nose

Back door Benny bleeding on his mother or his missed field goal in the 89 GF

Scott Sattler's tackle in the 2003 Grand Final.

Mals try at Old Trafford to win 2nd test

Mick DeVere and the staple gun

ETC ETC ETC

Ross, I reckon you are on to a winner with that idea. Surprised you didn't add the Ainscough left footed origin field goal.

Or the Ainscough head high penalty GF try in 1999!

 

[shane_sharks]

If not a Sig for Lockyer - how about Case Card 300 games

ET 300 Game Card would be better

 

[MrX]

It would b good - dunno about better...

How bout both

 

[Dr Grange]

ET 300 Game Card would be better

Case cards have always been current players not retired 10 years or more.
I would like to see 200 game CASE CARDS FOR 1ST SERIES & 300 game case cards for 2nd series

 

[1967Sharks]

Why cant they do the #/50 Case Card sigs still? I think they still do them for AFL.

 

[Dr Grange]

I agree in the 2nd series 50 of the case cards should be signed

 

[thenamesgould]

If they can't so jersey patch cards, then I think they should AT THE VERY LEAST have the four high end sigs /100, complete the sigs from series one with cards for the remainder of the teams, and do a Top Prospect for each club.

Hey found this tweet from Friday night from Brodie Smith's (AFL Player) twitter

"Hand a bit sore after signing 300 footy cards!! Took an hour to do..still was more entertaining than the royal wedding".

Usually (but not always) Select keep things similar across series. Brodie Smith is a young player - maybe we are getting another series of Top Prospects.

Will have to keep an eye on twitter for any NRL players doing the same.

Well with Dr Granges 400 case info, 300 of each TP would be a set of 16 which sounds right.

So that would be a limited edition set of zero? LOL.

Make that a 3D MegaMotion card.

Make that a 3D MegaMotion card.

You know the Sean Hampstead would be selling upwards of 15c on eBay!

 

[The Mad Hatter]

LOL. Hampstead, Archer, Suttor, Harrigan, Kelvin Jeffes, Steve Clark, Annesley, Shane Hayne, Tim Mander, Paul Simpkins, Jared Maxwell, Badger, Jason Robinson, Mogsheen Jadwat, Paul McBlane...what a sub set. Better if sig chase cards.

Great idea, call it "the men who ruin a game" subset. Put hollywood harrigan #1

 

[The Mad Hatter]

I seriously would buy this set...especially if die cut, mega motion, 3D, laser etched, silver foiled...



Robinson would make my day!!!
