I have the entire set of the '94 Masters series.
Are they a series of nine? and have gold writing and stuff... and Ricky Stuart got the Rugby League Writer's award, and coach of the year was Peter Louis?

If so, then I have that entire collection too.

I used to love collecting the old footy cards. I still have alot of them and like getting them out every now and again.

the Masters series - they were the ones on sale in the off season, right? i didn't collect them at all, i'd already spent so much of my pocket money on the first two series. 3 series in one year, f**k, wayyyy too many for a 10 yr old to be able to afford. i'm still pissed off at the massive inflation of price that occurred with footy cards from 1990 to 1996, from 30c a pack to $5.

I have almost all of the Raiders cards, including all of the Australia-release normal (non-insert) cards.

Why would you buy the packs of cards when you can get the entire regular set of your team off ebay for $4, plus a dollar for postage?

No, it's a serious question - that's what I did this year. Back in the day, you didn't have that option.

As I see it, the only reason for buying the packs is for the relatively minor chance of scoring one of the super special cards.

Well finding any pics or decent info on Sam Backo on the internet is harder than picking a broken nose. If anyone has scanned pics of him, or text describing him (Prodigiousman, please help!), feel free to contribute.

The same can be said about Lazarus as well - text for the team list would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Yeah - i hate it everytime i log on to the forum i feel guilty for not doing another bio. BUT it's a long off-season - i'll rattle em off when the team is fully picked - and we'll really make the document look good. If i do one now it'll be half baked and not that thorough. if you can wait another week or two i'll be on holidays and will get it done for Christmas. A pressy for all!

Is there going to be a poll for captain of the greatest raiders team ever?
