Message: [QUOTE="Bannermania, post: 2304424, member: 1835"] [color=#008040]The AFL is starting to model itself closely on the NFL business model. Grassroots AFL will become somewhat secondary to recruiting players no matter what their background. The AFL markets itself on being a homegrown Australian game, so what's to stop them continuing to do this? Don't ever expect to see this type of money thrown at a player again, but don't be surprised to see similar numbers around Karmichael's money. The AFL are willing to take some big risks, their attendance has never been higher, more people are supporting this game than ever before,. They can aford to be super-risky to get the returns that Folau's signing alone has generated. Be afraid, these guys mean business.[/color] [/QUOTE]
