Hi Mark. The cards on this thread is actually just the leftovers, a year or two on after I decided to sell up! It was a very nice collection, which I wish I still have in many ways, but then the practicalities kick in, and I know I made the right decision. I'm sure when I have the time to list...

Apologies, I didn't get a notification for your message, Brett. We've packed up all of our stuff ready to move house, so I can't tell you at present. We're in limbo having had our offer on a house accepted, but having not yet sold ours, so I can't give you a timeframe, but I'll try to remember...

Hi Mark. I didn't expect this thread to bounce back up. I have 100s of IP auto cards still in storage.

I personally think it is really important that we resist the predominantly American speculators that are leading the interest in the 'rookie card' phenomenon in non-US sports and even in non-sports. Keep the cards in the hands of people who appreciate the sports and the players. They are doing...

100%, and I hoped that is what would have eventuated from the test championship. When looking at individual achievements, someone like Kane Williamson who started 2 years ahead of Joe Root has played 40 less tests. Steve Smith even with his ban has played 10 more having started around the same...

Magnificent stuff, I love test cricket! Any victory of a team outside the big three beating them is something to savour, given the challenges that the others face. Meanwhile what looked like a fun summer here in NZ sees a South African test team arriving devoid of 1st and in some cases 2nd...

They have been around a long, long time. in the 2000's-2010s I used them to fill gaps in my IP sets and never had any qualms about authenticity.

As a Warriors collector, I still think Wiki would belong in a Raiders strip.

I'm watching The Bear which is a great show! I'm part way through season 2. It takes a bit to get into the characters, but they are awesome when you do with a lot of quite subtle humour. By season 2 no line of dialogue is wasted. Probably not a good watch if you are highly strung because it gets...

Did you watch the original Justified? It is one of my favourite series. I've just finished the first series of Twisted Metal. My friends and I played the game to death in the good ol' days. I couldn't work out how they'd turn it into a series, but it was an easy watch. They picked the right...

I'm not a reader, but I might have to chase Wool down to get into the Silo story. The show was good and apparently the books are better.

They've got the All Stars names right this time around. No high end signatures on a nuffie. I'm a bit disappointed with the Warriors YG, he is in NSW Cup behind 4-5 guys, and has just signed with the Cows this week. I appreciate that picking these is hard for TLA and at the start of the season...

That's super kind, thanks mate :thumbsup:. Probably a bit late now.

@Avonc I think I need to chuck some cash your way mate :)

What are people's thought on The Witcher season 3? I'm very disappointed, and am not quite sure how they can get a show like this so wrong.

Egan is a choice Warriors fans will be happy with for LS

If they are releasing coach/captain duals, then that is a seriously cool idea. Inaugural year one-off I presume?

Any player from anywhere, but the big three nations would lose 90% of their income. Test cricket would be a childhood aspiration of many, but not at the cost of their long-term livelihood. The only fix that I can see is the ICC giving handouts to nations in order to pay their players properly...

West Indies are out of the World Cup after losses to Zimbabwe, The Netherlands and Scotland. Genuine question - will they ever be a force in world cricket again? Who else will follow their trajectory? Ireland out after losing to Oman and Scotland will be disappointing for them. I've been...

Rumours I have heard: 1. A Walsh/Fifita/Carrigan Judiciary triple signature 2. Gaslighter lenticular of Annesley explaining how clear the rules are, and how lucky it is for fans that he is showing up to explain why supporters are interpreting them wrong. 3. F*** what have we done mojos...

Wow, that is an epic collection. The Ridge and Hoppe Ultra Golds are extremely scarce, and I have never seen a set of proofs. If you can find them they are around $15 each. A whole set is a real treasure, though the market for NZ cards is much smaller. I sold my full league collection several...

I hope they don't! Massive game for both sides. But if TLA want to print more money then a game milestone series like the PIF weekly release would be something cool to collect. I'd love 50, 100, 200, 300g cards consistently of Warriors players. Mind you they'd have to be willing to post to NZ...

He sure does, but everybody would love to have him. Dead set dominated that game. Two games against the Roosters and Panthers in 11 days will hurt. I think the injuries were in tribute to our fallen brothers for ANZAC, might have to put the SoS out to NSW Cup. Yeah the judicial system, bunker...

Surely NAS this week. He single-handedly turned that game (and has the fortune of being allowed to play like the thugs of NRL forwards of old, while everyone else has to be a choirboy).

Yes, but I'm going to sound ridiculous here. I have always thought he carried the team in the wrong ways. He tirelessly bashed it up the middle making hit ups, which looks amazing in the stats, but I've always thought he has lacked ball-playing and defence. If you look at his highlights he has...
