2022 NRL Traders Base Cards – The Backbone of the Set

The 2022 NRL Traders Base Card set is where every serious collection starts. Released in March 2022, this 160‑card base checklist covers every NRL club with a clean, classic Traders design that puts players front and centre — no gimmicks, just footy.

What’s in the Base Set?

The checklist is split evenly across the league, featuring 10 cards per club: nine player cards plus one team checklist. It’s simple, organised, and extremely satisfying when you finally tick off that last missing card.

Why Collect the Base Cards?

While the inserts get the shine, the base set does the heavy lifting. It captures the core squads from the 2022 season and gives collectors a structured, team‑by‑team way to build their binders. Whether you’re chasing your favourite club or going for the full league run, this is the foundation.

• Complete 160‑card base checklist
