[Matt26]

Here is a bit of news from TLA:

In season 2018, TLA is excited to announce the launch of the all new ‘Player In Focus’ limited edition cards.

These uniquely designed cards will celebrate the player that is determined to be the most outstanding player of each NRL round, and will feature all their individual stats and highlights!

Each card will also feature an action image from that round of the chosen player!

The ‘Player In Focus’ cards will be available for purchase for a strict 24-hour period, from 12pm, the day after each NRL round concludes. Each card will be individually numbered in order of purchase and will cost $20.00AUD (including shipping), only available in the online shop at www.nrlgamecards.com.

Make sure to follow @TLAtradingcards on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for announcements on the design of the card, who has been chosen as the ‘Player In Focus’ for each round, and for updates on when the purchase period will go live each week!

Remember that no more orders will be processed, or cards made, once the purchase period is over, making these cards a highly exclusive collectible.

Set your alarms and reminders now to make sure you don’t miss out!

Good concept.

Any idea who determines the best player of the round?

 

[Rocket1908]

Like the idea. Hope there's a few decent ones to get

 

[Wookiedragon]

Select did a similar thing with AFL cards last year.

 

[Rocket1908]

So who's gonna be on the mad scramble to get #1 by ordering first?

And then it's down to luck for the jersey number

Here's a mockup of what the cards look like.

Looks like they're part of the traders set so there's an extra $500 for all the Master Set Collectors...

Random number would have been great

 

[Matt26]

I reckon they should also do milestones....... 50/100/150/200 etc games.

 

[Rocket1908]

Would be a popular set. Slater, Thurston, Sutton, Inglis, Pearce are all set to hit milestones this year I believe

 

[Sharky]

nice concept.

 

[BenjiRaiders]

Sounds good

 

[BenjiRaiders]

Although will it just be a set of thirty odd cam Smith cards

 

[BenjiRaiders]

Just out of curiosity with these cards be recorded by name or some how limited purchase wise? Maybe only one or two sales per person/ credit card

Would be nice if it was some how kept limited so they could retain/increase value . Would suck if dealer buy 50 or so at a time every round

I could see some resellers using bots to trick the website into allowing dupes. Though that's probably not as common in Aus as the US

Not a bad concept!

An option to "stockpile" (ie hold onto any orders until the end of the season) would have been nice to save some postage. I guess that wouldn't work for those who would want to flip them for profit straight away though.

PS: WHAT Master Set collectors?

I think there is only about 3 master set collectors in the game.

Might not be easy to get the 36s from this one...

I copied and pasted what was sent to me by TLA?

This is still on the site...from 12pm.....could mean 12:30?
