2023 AFL Footy Stars Trading Cards (Select)

The 2023 AFL Footy Stars release from Select is the big, bold, early‑season set that kicks off another year of AFL and AFLW collecting. Loaded with a massive checklist, familiar inserts, shiny numbered cards, and a few case‑only headaches, this is a set built for rippers, traders, and long‑term set builders alike.

If you like variety, colour, predictors you swear will be correct this year, and the occasional heartbreak when the hit doesn’t show up — Footy Stars delivers exactly that.

Set Overview

Select’s 2023 AFL Footy Stars features a huge mix of AFL and AFLW players across base cards, classic insert series, hobby‑exclusive chases, and limited case hits. It’s designed to be approachable at retail while still giving hobby collectors something to argue about online.

This release includes both Retail and Hobby formats, with Hobby boxes offering exclusive numbered inserts and redemption cards not found in retail packs.

Base Set

• 235‑card base set

• Features AFL and AFLW players

• Clean design with multiple parallel colour spot variations

The base set forms the backbone of the release, covering stars, veterans, and emerging talent across the league — perfect for full set builders or team‑focused collectors.

Classic Insert Series

Footy Stars is known for its deep insert checklist, and 2023 doesn’t hold back.

• Mascots

• Essential

• Milestone Games

• AFL Classified (printed on acetate)

• Numbers (metallic gold finish)

• Iconic

• Brownlow Predictor

• Coleman Predictor

• Premiership Predictor

• Rising Star Predictor (new for 2023)

These inserts range from fun and nostalgic to full‑blown chase cards, with several series also featuring numbered and premium versions.

Hobby‑Exclusive Cards

Collectors opening Hobby boxes gain access to additional limited and premium content not available in retail products.

• Carbon inserts (numbered to 195)

• Platinum Predictors (Brownlow, Coleman, Premiership & Rising Star — numbered to 60)

• Spectrum Redemption Cards redeemable for exclusive AFL and AFLW player cards (two per team)

Hobby is where the serious chase begins — and where expectations are either rewarded or immediately questioned.

Case & Limited Hits

For those going deep (or splitting cases with friends):

• 300‑Game Case Cards — numbered to 300, featuring AFL legends

• 300‑Game Signature Cards — numbered to just 50, falling roughly one per seven cases

These are the cards that make group chats loud.
