Terry from ESP said to me earlier this year that jersey signature cards would feature autos on the card not the jersey piece as the pens used didnt really work well on specific jerseys.
Hoping for game worn jersey cards, that are signed on the card. Hopefully there is a better chance to hit signatures too (i bought 3 boxes plus probably easily another box worth of loose packs - and i got one young gun). Series 1 was too hit and miss for my liking.
I'm thinking along the lines that they can't get any worse. If they learn from the mistakes of the first few releases, the only way is up. My main concerns (in order of concern from least to most) are the variety, quality and ratios of inserts.
Thus far they have failed to deliver, but I want them to prove me wrong for the future.
There needs to be better odds on the inserts and there needs to be more cards in the lower insert subsets.
10 cards for lowest insert subset is too little and the lack of inserts is making it boring if you don't hit a signature! I have bought about 5 boxes worth of packs and have already managed to complete a set of all the non-signature insert subsets because there are only 32 cards between the 3. I completed the retirements set 4 times!
The variety and ratios are my main things they need to improve. Of course quality and stamping the serial number of each card is also important as well.

Im predicting this set will be released in NZ about grand final time or early 2014...
Id love to buy loose packs of Traders or Powerplay here in NZ but it appears even that is still god knows when away...
I know we are considered the poor cousins to Australia but do ESP really need to prove they dont like us??
