He said Boak was the highest paid player, thought that Gray or Dixon would be higher.
Cornes said Wines worth 700k, wouldn't pay 800k for Wines
I'd expect that right at this moment Dixon would be on the highest packet at Alberton, for 2018 anyway. Purely speculating I'd think the third year of his large deal would be higher than the last year of 30 year old Boak's deal.
On Boak, he deserves to be one of if not our highest paid. He showed loyalty not often seen in this competiton when, in 2012, Geelong threw everything at him and he decided to stay at Port Adelaide. That display of unity and loyalty rightly deserved to be rewarded.
Ablett could learn a thing or two from Boak about sticking around when things get tough and giving 100% regardless.
