If I was ever good enough to play NRL and the chooks wanted me I would love to play for them.Originally posted by Easts75 View PostWho the fark would want to play for any other club !!
But being realistic and they offered me $500,000 a season over 4 years and Parramatta-Cronulla-Manly or even Souths offered my $750,000 a season over 4 years I would be gone in a flash.
As much as anyone here would want to play for the roosters in the end you only have a limited time to make decent coin and an extra million isn't something to give up just because you support a club.
Anyone who says they wouldn't is only kidding themselves.
An offer of $2,000,000 and $2,400,000 over 4 years is a different thing and would probably stay by the time you take in tax and players agents fees.

It depends on their marketability and how much of a brain they have. Someone like Teddy will be set up well post footy career I would think. And could take less $$ during his playing career as a result. Some other guys really need to make hay while the sun shines.Originally posted by Kentucky_Fried_Rooster View Post

Although amazingly guys like Tallis, Thurston and god forbid even Hindmarsh have somehow got post footy media gigs with no ability or attraction in that area.

Totally depends on your aspirations after footy. That short term cash grab could cost you plenty in the long run after footy but I get your pointOriginally posted by Kentucky_Fried_Rooster View Post
