Few collectibles capture the spirit of early-1980s rugby league quite like the 1981 Ardmona set. Available by redemption only, the cards were issued as individual team sets for each of the 12 clubs in the competition, giving supporters the chance to collect their own side’s entire squad. Each club set features 31 player cards, complemented by a Club History card, a Club Records card and a Clubman of the Year voting card, which invited fans to have their say. The reverse of every player card carries the player’s club history alongside personal details, offering a fascinating snapshot of the game’s heroes in an era when the sport was fiercely tribal and the football was played hard. Scarce, nostalgic and rich in detail, the Ardmona set is a great addition for the dedicated supporter and a worthy piece of rugby league history.
