# Lachie Whitfield's Last GWS Cards: Collector's Guide

> Lachie Whitfield is heading to Carlton after 278 games as a Giant. Here's every confirmed 2026 Footy Stars and Teamcoach card from his final GWS season.

Category: AFL

Lachie Whitfield's trade to Carlton on 13 October 2026 closes out a 14-season, 278-game career with Greater Western Sydney, and his 2026 cards are the last that will ever carry that GWS orange. A two-time All-Australian and two-time Kevin Sheedy Medal winner, he departs without a premiership but with six confirmed Footy Stars entries and a clean Teamcoach page. Here is every confirmed card from his final season as a Giant.

## What does Whitfield's 2026 Select AFL Footy Stars checklist look like?

Whitfield lands six confirmed cards in the 2026 Select AFL Footy Stars set. His base (#104) closes out the GWS block entirely, which is a pleasing piece of trivia for set collectors. Beyond the base, there is the unnumbered Select Rewind (SR72) and Milestone Games card (MG46, marking 250 games), plus the serial-numbered Mercury Team Colours (MY96, limited to 425 copies) and BOOOM Ice (BI80, limited to 510). He does not appear in Luminous, Footy Heads, Adrenaline, or Octane, so the checklist is tighter than some of his recent years.

The clear target is the Select Rewind Neutron (RN24), numbered to just 30 copies at a pack ratio of roughly 1:2,100. Thirty of them exist in GWS colours, from his last season. If you pull one, photograph it in CardLoft straight away so the record is locked in before it changes hands.

## What 2026 Teamcoach cards are confirmed for Whitfield?

In 2026 Teamcoach, Whitfield has two confirmed entries: the base card (#26) and Star Powers (SP-41). The SP-41 was listed at Jaja's Collectables at an asking price of AU$25.00, with very low stock at the time of writing. There is no Teamcoach B&F card for Whitfield in 2026: the 2025 Kevin Sheedy Medal went to Tom Green, and there is no All-Australian card either, as Sam Taylor was GWS's sole representative in the 2025 All-Australian team.

A Fantasy Forecast card is possible but unconfirmed, and a bronze parallel of the base likely exists without a verified number.

## What are the key cards from Whitfield's full GWS career?

Start with the 2013 Select AFL Prime DPS1, a signed and numbered draft pick signature card issued when Whitfield arrived as the number one selection from the Dandenong Stingrays. That is his first piece of cardboard and the natural anchor for any Whitfield collection. There are two Milestone Games MG46 cards across his career: the 2024 Footy Stars version marks his 200th game, and the 2026 version marks his 250th. They share the insert code by coincidence, so always confirm the year when searching.

From recent sets, the 2025 Footy Stars Brownlow Predictor Signature (BPSG39, numbered to 220) is a notable signed card from a two-time All-Australian. Whitfield did not win the 2025 Brownlow (Nick Daicos claimed that one), so it stays a predictor, but it is still a legitimate on-card auto. The 2025 Luminous Thunderbolt Gold (LT96, /399) rounds out the highlights from the year prior. If you are building a Whitfield collection or have duplicates to move, add them to your private trade list in CardLoft, the fastest way to find other GWS collectors chasing the same gaps.

## Why does Whitfield's GWS departure matter for collectors?

Whitfield and Toby Greene were both inaugural Giants, both top picks from the founding 2012 draft class, and both departed GWS in the same trade period. The two longest-serving Giants gone in a single off-season. Greene's departure forms the other half of that story, and together they mark the end of an era for GWS cardboard.

Whitfield heads to Carlton on a three-year deal, reuniting with former Mt Martha juniors Nick Haynes, Nic Newman, and Jacob Weitering. His 278 games as a Giant included a 2019 Grand Final appearance (lost to Richmond), two Kevin Sheedy Medal wins, and two All-Australian selections. He averaged 28.3 disposals per game in 2026 and led the competition in disposals in 2024. The 2026 Footy Stars and Teamcoach sets close a 14-season GWS chapter. After this, his cards will carry Carlton colours.
