I'll take a stab and say that not very many on this site would know exactly what other guys are getting paid, unless it the person in question himself...

Very good assumption, if you talk to the people invovled they are not shy in lettting you know how much + incentives have been discussed. Must get my hands on one of those Money Trees or do they only grow in Athelstone.

I am a little disappointed that he is not returning to his original SAAFL club but there is no way we were going to match what the chicks have agreed to pay him.No sour grapes tho as he has a young family and extra $$$'s are handy.I dont expect him to lob at the chicks and prattle on about the $$$ he will get.He is not that kind of guy. Good luck to him for getting the deal he has from the chicks and Big Phil.Looks like I will be down at BA reserve to watch The Incredible Polk for a couple of games when my team are playing on the other side of town.



Unbelievable, Polkie just came out tonight and told me he was on $450 a game plus a large sign on fee. Didn't even bloody train. At least he was spending some of it on the bar, he was pissed as a fart watching the cricket.

How do you know Polky Boozehound? Is he worth the massive coin he's getting? So do you think he is understating what he is on?
