The quality of the paperboard used for this release is quite disappointing imo.

It's better than the a-league release but nowhere near as good as TnP's cricket release. Would have hoped for a better grade of paperboard being used given the premium pricing for this release, particularly with only 23 cards in the set.

Obviously a smaller production run is more expensive (plus factoring in associated profit margins), but it just a shame that compromises appear to have been made that distract from the overall quality of this release.

So not worth the $80 then? A real shame that they don't care about the collector and just release things such as these just for the $$$.

Well you can't put a price on having another Tommy Oar card for the collection - priceless!!

But certainly the price doesn't seem justified.

Still, there is always the option of spending $130 for the 'mega rare' Ivan Franjic card that we were told never existed.

To paraphrase Forrest Gump....TnP is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get!

Seems a shame that the FFA don't appear to set the the same high quality standards that Cricket Australia must obviously set for cricket cards.
