You mean Ben getting a Future HoF card? Probably retired a bit too long ago?
Judd of course is the obvious one I missed. Thought of him before I started the list then completely forgot. You'd think he's a certainty to be in there somewhere - whether that's in Blues or Eagles colours I'm not sure!
If Judd is not in Eagles colours then its a travesty. Judd was amazing at the Blues but Premiership Captain, Norm Smith, Brownlow Medalist and B&F winner at West Coast you would think he's a lock for West Coast.
Ben also falls into the Carey/Ablett Snr category. Definate Hall of Famers but with Scandals surrounding them off field the AFL doesn't want a bar of it....... He'll eventually be inducted like the others but the AFL will want to see Ben turn his life around. Where he can do that remains to be seen.

Had a go at a possible list of the 32 players on these Future Hall of Fame cards. Tried to give teams with fewer HoF cards/parallels/legends/legend sigs more cards in this set - and apparently every team gets at least one. Open to thoughts!

Or to be fair, would not be surprised if Gary is repeatedly dipcted as a sun as well as the cats card as he's achieved the only real thing for the club in their short history being the Brownlow medalist! Otherwise it would have to be Lynch but it's next to certain he won't be with the club next year onwards
Just for the sake of posterity: my final guess at the Future HoF set after everyone's great feedback. Some hard decisions had to be made!

***SELECT LEGACY PREVIEW 9***
We continue our preview of the upcoming Select Legacy series today with a look at one of the Hall of Fame Legend Signature Cards featuring the Richmond FC's Royce Hart!
Pre-sale is now available on our website at www.selectaustralia.com.au, with full release this Friday 3rd August from our website and Hobby stores.
There's one super dooper biggie to come apparently......extremely limited. There have been a lot of rumours (and I have no idea exactly WHAT the card is actually), but expect a preview between now and Friday
I agree completely @BLOWN8 re: the design of the Legend Signature cards.
There is something big in this series, maybe the booklet as the select guy mentioned it last night and said he would expect it to sell for no less than $1500 per card.
Hmmm gotta be a triple or quad signature ?
although i am wrong more than i am right.
If that's the case and they use the same sized booklet they already produce (like below - front and reverse), wouldn't a dual or quad be more likely? One or two on either side of the booklet perhaps. We'll find out soon enough.
Not disagreeing with you exactly, however being a Carlton supporter I'd feel it was a travesty if he wasn't in Navy Blue
Seriously though, and Judd isn't the only player over history this could apply to, wouldn't a pair of parallel cards celebrating his achievements at both clubs be fair to both sets of fans?
