West Coast card collector!
Anyone heard any rumours about this year's Future Force release? Is it going to come out around draft day (November 25) again? What do you want to see in this year's release?

If there's any product where Select can go above and beyond at all,
it's this one.
I mean, how awesome would it be to get a 1/1 or low numbered card of a top prospect in the draft?
Plus, no kids touch this product, and some other collectors stay away from it.
Loads of room to do some really nice stuff in Future Force, without needing to worry about fairness in boxes or anything
it's this one.

Good find! It doesn't have an obvious colour, like the red or green signatures in recent series: unless they've gone back to gold? I really liked the gold ones, so I'd be quite happy if that was the case.This was on Twitter this morning...
What do you mean by "without needing to worry about fairness in boxes"? I'd have thought that would be kind of important.

I think it looks like they will be doing a subset in honour of 20 years of the Ais academy. I presume with a card with the best player from each induction.
Those sigs look very nice I don't mind future force always a bit of fun allthough recently values have not held very well

That's cool they have the colour of the team though as a border

Well that's true lol
I meant without collectors having to complain about the "average collector" not being able to get those hits when buying boxes because of low numbering. It's a product which not as many people buy (well, hardly anybody) so you could do some really cool things with that set.

The prices for FF autos are abhorrent.
I mean, I got offered $10 for Josh Kelly, a #2 pick at a team that were unlucky not to make the Grand Final, and a player who is playing well at the moment.
I don't get it...

Such is life!
Not in team colours is my guess as to why these cards just don't have good currency.

Yep spot on. Plus the fact that it is so hot and miss and the boxes are so cheap. So with one sig every box and at only $50 hard to gain to much value
They announced a team earlier in the year of the best 20 players to come through the academy. Could be multiple players per year.

Nice find yep that will be the set then. Shame as I was hoping for some GWS or GC

Great idea, but they don't look like much of an insert card, more like part of the base set. Just pretty plain looking.

That actually brought me to one of my ideas;
Include some current players in the base set, in their championship unis.

You better have lots of cash for this year's releases bro;Nice find yep that will be the set then. Shame as I was hoping for some GWS or GC
There are so many damn academy players for GWS & GC this year going towards the top of the draft, and that's on top of the picks they already have...
