    NHL Playoffs

    Just watched the two goals by Raymond to square it at 4-4 very late and then the OT winner. I hope they can hang on because the Caps and Penguins will likely get in if they don't win their last game. https://www.nhl.com/video/mtl-det-raymond-scores-goal-against-samuel-montembeault-6350994861112

    2X Hobby of 23/24 OPC and 1X 22/23 SPA.

    Got these today and opened them. Massive troll job with Bedard. Every Blackhawks rookie including some colour - except him( edit: so I thought). All up did pretty well. The Knies /49 was excellent and the wood Makar might be ok. Not sure how rare that is. The cherry wood goes for a bit. Fun...

    West Indies

    Seeing Joseph hit the top of off stump and then take off with unbridled joy was one of the best moments I've seen in cricket in a very long time. I grew up watching the West Indies absolutely demolish Australia in the early 80's. I sat at the MCG next to kids with red hair and freckles wearing...

    Small comc mail day

    Got one again today. Nothing too exciting. The Laffy is getting the pliers treatment as it was cheaper to buy in a PSA8 than raw. It goes into the binder and makes my 2020-21 YG set whole again.

    1 x box of UD Hockey 2021/22 S2

    Had a package turn up this morning and assumed it was one of two comc packages that are in transit. Nope it was a box sent from Cherry with one of those break cards on it with my name. I'm guessing they threw this into a Slapperz break or something - or maybe felt sorry for me( yeah right) who...

    1996 Andrew Johns signature series

    Apologies for the multitude of questions but would like to get a bit more of a handle on the hobby. Did this signature card come both /400 and non-numbered? Were there any other numbered ones? Would love to grab one of these Thanks

    Mal Meninga 1994 Dynamic Supporters choice signature card /1500

    I've been looking at this card on ebay and it looks like some were done in a red pen and some in a black one. Was a known thing at the time of release?

    The Cup

    Got these in a case break of The Cup 2021/22. Stoked with the Eklund auto. If it weren't for him it would've been very nasty. The Dahlin cards are coasters at this point as he's not in the NHL anymore. This is one of the downsides of product being released so late( 18 months past its usual...

    South Africa politics

    View: https://youtu.be/ND6vEmew7sQ?si=LMJXYnMHQIHP-ytX Mandela would be turning in his grave. 50% unemployment and 77 murders per day. Power outages every day for a minimum of 6 hours. This nation is about to collapse and do a Venezuela - squander vast resources which should ensure some level...

    Sydney Test

    Very nice knock by Rizwan. Shame he didn't reach a century but he's been great to watch. Hopefully this series will be the beginnings of a really good Pakistan Test team in the next few years. I think the Australian public has taken to them - in part due to their underdog status but also the...

    Best dialogue in a movie

    This could be a tricky part of the website for me. Hopefully I can restrain myself. There might already be a thread about this but I couldn't see it. Other than the two parts in Taxi Driver - You talking to me, and the last conversation with the pimp this is one the funniest I remember. It's...

    Boxing Day Test match bubbling away nicely.

    It's been an enjoyable Test so far. I hope Pakistan can hang in there and go close to winning. It would be great for world cricket if they can snag a Test over here while the series is live. Also, Pat Cummins is awesome to watch. What a player. I do believe I'm back loving cricket like I did...

    Upper Deck

    Got these redemptions in the mail today. It must cost UD more in postage than what the cards are worth Another case of the top loaders being the best part of the deal Nice cards value aside.

    1X hobby box of 2021/22 MVP and 2X Hobby boxes of 2021/22 UD Hockey Series 2

    Fun Christmas break. 1st box of UD hockey was the worst I have ever opened. These type of configurations should not exist. The second one was pretty decent. Merry Christmas.

    COMC pickups

    Got a box of comc stuff yesterday and forgot to post it. It was mainly 1974-75 opc plus some more 2019-20 UD hockey. There was also some hockey inserts for 2020-21 but I’d already put them in to binders. Getting close to finishing the 2019-20 UD S2 set. Finished the Retired Stars set and 'only'...

    150 card 2018 Topps Silver Pack set.

    Not exactly mail day but it's my favourite piece and would like to show it. Prior to 2019 you had to buy the silver packs separately from the hobby or jumbo boxes of Topps baseball. In 2019 they started putting one pack in a hobby box and two in a jumbo. I really liked the cards and through comc...

    1X Hobby box of 2021-22 Upper Deck Hockey Series 2

    Got 3 of these hobby boxes on Black Friday. One of them did not make it under the Christmas tree. For $60 AUD this was a really fun break as it had two SP cards - the Black Canvas YG and the Red OPC marquee rookie. Unfortunately neither was a good name but still nice to hit. Also, first time...

    3rd of September Box Break

    Got 5X boxes of 2022-23 UD Hockey Series 1 from the recent Cherry sale. I've opened three. I had to as the first one was the worst hobby box of UD flagship I have ever opened. Even worse than the one on epack earlier this year which was also 2022-23 S1 Box 1. Usually there is one ok Young Guns...

    40 years later

    I have not had this card in my possession since 1983 which is when I went to high school and decided that sportscards were 'gay'. I threw them all away including multiple copies of this guy - my favourite player at the time. Got this in the mail today and I'm wrapt it's back. Putting the set...

    1980's QRL cards.

    I came across a page called Dan's Cards which showed a 1982 Scanlens set which included Wally Lewis, Meninga, and Belcher. I don't know much about early Rugby League cards as the 1994 Dynamic set was the first time I laid eyes on League cards. A few questions. Are those the earliest cards of...

    Bergkamp pickup.

    Got one of these finally. 1991-92 Shooting Stars Dennis Bergkamp. My all time favourite player and a very underrated one. Just my opinion but he is the best striker to play in the Premier League. His highlights packages on YT are unreal.
