    • Demonland changed the title to Do You Collect Footy Cards?
     

    Ive got a bunch from when I was a kid in the late 80s-mid 90s including complete sets and insert cards (got Garry Lyon & Stephen Tingay AA cards, Barassi Legends card etc)

    The last 5-10 years I usually buy a couple of packs a year of the premium sets from card zone near the Vic market. The best card I managed to get was a Dayne Beams (Lions) redemption card that has a piece of his guernsey and his signature they seem to go for about $300 on ebay.

    My kids now buy them but don't really "collect" them like I did as a kid - they don't care about completing sets or anything.

    I've been collecting Melbourne cards since the mid 1980s. Nothing ultra top end, but plenty of signature cards and the like. I find them a good souvenir of each season and of my favourite players.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
