still no reason not to buy starters over loose packs if you can IMO, same price plus the bonus card and not like the odds are any worse than box boosters cause its the same product. I still expect them to fly off shelves, trading cards in general have had a big year with covid but especially NRL has been a huge winner (relative to its expectations), even traders became a lot harder to find mid-late year. I expect the nrl market to at least cool down a little considering our progress vs covid is better than most of the world and we'll probably see a few people back out of the hobby. (With all the covid collecting booms, popularity of the coles/woolies little shop/disney/etc, and supermarkets being the only place to go early on in covid i wonder if the micro figures wouldve been successful again)
As for what's in the set itself hopefully something interesting or different to previous years' sets, theyve been pretty formulaic albeit successfully so, would like to see chart toppers and the like in main sets again
