Your freind must be on the lower end of the scale i have two mates there one basicly paid his new ute off in two seasons there and the other might as well be a professional footballer. They own the wantirna club and it is a massive cash cow, they would have a salary cap of at least 100K+Vermont would not spend that much money on a SFL Div 3 player, A friend is in the starting 18 at Vermont and only gets $150 per game, the problem is when people report the amount of money going around it always seems to be exaggerated, then what is worse is people believe this crap.
After seeing some div 3 games this year i think the most any player would be worth would be $150-200
