Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 2905691, member: 8215"] There was never this much money in the game. Many players still had day jobs. You played footy for the love and the glory. It was only the elites that would earn big money. Now players can earn enough to set themselves up for life. An extra 20% will often be more than the average wage [I]extra. [/I]I guess that could be seen as an ironic eventuality if the Super League war. Players were finally being paid glamour money, but it meant that the money became more important than your club or your chance at a Premiership. You could probably even trace our supposed decline back to those years in the late ‘90’s. We were THE glamour club that everyone wanted to play for, but over time with the salary cap and the dollars, players could now be payed the glamour dollars anywhere - even more at clubs that sucked and had to pay overs.
