Strange they left Inglis out of the commons too but I assume that's because of his injury. Still has the captain/all stars cards though
Not overly impressed with the panthers cards from first glance... would have been great if te mare Martin was still here don't get me wrong but he's not! We have so many young guns ATM ( Edwards, hara-weira neara, yeo, Campbell-Gillard, Blake ) and we get one who now plays for another team; Makes it hard to get excited about it! And tamou? Been here half a season and is our league sensation? How bout Wallace, Merrin, peachy? Hmm...
Disappointed to have Martin really dominate this set for the panthers. Hes a good player but as he has gone to cowboys its abit annoying. Understand this set is finalised early on in the year so i get why this happened. Also dont understand how peta hiku (gone), dean whare get a start in the common set before RCG, Moylan etc.
Also not a massive James Tamou fan - but that is just my personal opinion. Would have preferred to see Merrin instead. But at least it is a different panthers signature card (as really on the term 'league sensations' only 3 older players they could pick would be merrin/tamou/wallace - and considering wallace has had a card before i can live with the Tamou card).
Interested to see how the panthers Luke Lewis cards will look. As by the looks ill have to collect those too

I think he started at prop once or twice. It's nice to have a card of him but it's a shame it's a card of a player who left.
Also Johnston being the fullback in our Elite Impact instead of Inglis gives some substance to the theory

And Merrin had a dragons signature card in 2014 elite from memory?

Robbie Rochow is now at the Storm as well
It will be interesting to see how quick the inserts move and what prices. This is 5th year of elite and every year without fail inserts nearly halve in price after the first month. I think that the Emeralds will be popular but are collectors willing to pay 1k for a low production parallel set?
The inclusion of the Emerald will also drive down Ruby & Sapphire prices somewhat.

Surprisingly the price for them were at $400 and $1000 but have dropped $300 and $700-$800 respectly
It'll be interesting to see how they go
Ido like to see how they do the all star parellels prices, if they go down the route of the run & gun ones, they'll drop down to $40 at least

Down to 9 commons.
In years to come they'll be the chase cards.
No Vunivulu, Johnston...leading try scorers.
No i Friend.
Glad I don't chase mojos. Nuffies left right n centre
For me this is a set because im a Commons completist but view it with very little enthusiasm.

I think you will find Ruby Mojo's now sit at $200 (some lower) and Sapphires struggle to crack $600 with some of the less popular teams fetching $400.
The last time we had All Stars as a subset was 15 Elite and we all know what a poor release that was. I think the odds for the AS parallel will be similar and these were 1:7 boxes or so. The prices on these struggle to fetch $50 now (JT included) but I think the parallel version, like the WCHP from 14 will hold a bit better.

It had been at 9 commons every set except last year not including checklists.
Personally 9 is a good number, fits nicely in a page. Not a fan of the checklist
