1996 NRL Dynamic Series 1 – Base Cards

Ah, the base set — the backbone of any serious collection. All 180 cards covering every player worth remembering (and a few you’d rather forget). From Canberra Raiders legends to Newcastle Knights’ fan favourites, this is where your footy obsession officially begins.

Full Set Breakdown

The base set spans all 12 NRL teams of the 1996 season, featuring the cream of the crop, rookies finding their feet, and that mysterious bloke whose only claim to fame is appearing on card #077. Each card showcases the player, their team, and just enough stats to make you feel like a coach — without the stress of actually running a team.
