Add Lancaster to that list also Hank.
Sorry craig, but those numbers of proposed payments are ridiculous. The KDL clubs simply don't have that amount of coin to throw around, and even if they did, it would only be a matter of years before that club was in a hole that they'd not get out of.
Most reserve the right to pay some good money to a couple of key players(maybe 3 or 4), but with most clubs, the large majority of players sign on the line for nothing but an opportunity to play with some mates and try to win a flag.
I'm sure if you were to look into clubs books not that it goes through the books, you would be surprised at what money is being paid out to players and players that you think are not getting paid,blokes you think are on 100 are on 200 . You would get big shock if true figures come out.
