I think they're taking $200 000 - $300 000 of the salary, pretty much all of the team's marketing allowance for the next three years, plus the AFL are kicking in a bit as well. The reality is they have to pay 'overs' for elite players to switch to entirely new codes. It's a unique situation though with these two new clubs, in largely unconquered areas, coming into the game. I don't think it will be repeated for a long long time (the grossly inflated salaries for someone who hasn't played the game), if ever.
Yeah, loves the environment. Gets around in a Toyota Prius from all reports.No. What will happen is that their actual match payments will be much much much less than $1m a season. The rest of the money will come from the publicity work they'll do for the club.
It's like Chris Judd's tireless work for Visy
Genuine lol there. Although 99*'s topped it.

Not in this weather.
Haha.. Hope you're watching the GF replay. Ridiculous game tbh.
You know for a minute when I saw the Melbourne teams run out I thought you were there leading the chorus of boos against the Storm players. Too bad no **** bothered to turn up.
They're the only players worth taking.
