More than happy to let you know that I’ve spoken to a club full of under 25’ers who know exactly who she is and what she has bought to the game. A few have had the privilege of meeting BC. Your commentary was decidedly indicative of a general “meh” attitude towards it all. Some people don’t like women playing the game or being represented in cards from WBBL/sig sets, but we’re here and rightly deserve some of the past recognition never given over the blokes, such is in BCs case. Shane Warne for example - nothing more than a plastic figurine of a cricketer. He’s been so over marketed that his stuff is common and everyday now. There are other characters and legends of the game that would be more valued and collectable because of their achievements and stature in the game - Big Merv, Deano (RIP but an in memoriam card would be great), Healy, AB, Fitzpatrick, MJ, the list goes on.You love jumping on your high horse don’t you
So if you read what I said, I never said she wasn’t a legend, just that only 2 legend sigs in this release, and you show me someone under the age of 25 who even knows who she is. Having big names who people know will drive sales. Can you point out exactly the moment I said it will be a worthless card? I’m struggling to see where I said any such thing. If you want to argue please don’t just make things up and use actual facts. You don’t need to jump down my throat because I have a differing opinion to you, just disagree and move on

Open your mind and do your research on them and you might be educated in who they are and their skillset. It’s only the last few years the women are starting to get the TV/radio/media coverage equal to the blokes who’ve had it for decades. I love now how kids (regardless of sex) want to bat like Meg, or bowl like Brunt or Pez, or keep like ‘Heals. The game is growing across the board so we have stars of the future coming through the ranks - and whose cards we can collect moving forward - be it a TLA release or anyone else.

I get you don’t like Shane Warne, but there’s absolutely no denying he’s the greatest modern day cricketer we’ve seen, so put your personal opinion of him aside. And the fact he has barely featured in any trading cards in the past 10-15 years means your statement of being over marketed is a bit ridiculous. And I’m only interested in our hobby, so don’t bring in any other products he’s involved in into the debate. I dare say if he featured in an Australian Legends signature card series it would be one of the most sort after card in recent memory. And just to clear something up, I watch woman’s cricket, and enjoy it from time to time. And totally support the girls in the sport. And also think they do have a place being featured in trading cards, but think the ratio of men and women needs to be better. Deny it all you like but the men’s game is where more money is, bigger crowds etc. So to me it would make more sense to have the set feature more from the men’s game, but with a sprinkling from the women’s game too. My original issue was only 2 legend cards, I would have gone with 3 in total, 2 men and one from the women’s game. That’s my rant, just wanted to clear those things up. Enough about that. But if I pull a Clark legend and you pull a Johnson I look forward to trading
There have been a couple of release date changes has there not? Anyone know when collectors will be likely to have these in their hands?

The current set release date is now November 19th.
We're hoping to have it a little earlier than that but that's the scheduled date for Newsagents etc.

If I were a betting man (or at least a good one), I would suggest the Priority hits might be a Street Art variant (bronze) and a Young Gun variant.

Signature cards look very nice. Do TLA have a Facebook page I can follow? I could only find NRL pages.
