Underselling Dumont a little bit here. He was very good this season and I believe came 4th in their B&F. Stepped up with Cunnington out of the side.
Analysis Worst AFL contracts.

Lever was very good this year IMO. Didn't get the kudos he deserved for a fine individual season.

Not a mod
I am legitimately shocked. I thought he was delisted ages ago. Also I just looked him up and he's only been at Gold Coast 2 years. What the *.
Bad contracts are not players like Buddy who gave years of being in the top few players in the game.
You judge the entire contract, not just the last few years of it.
Players like Treloar are clearly being overpaid but with his ability is still no where near the worst contracts in the league.
As mentioned several times i think McGovern is the current worst one. Big money and legit not even a good or average AFL player currently as it stands. Beams the only other one to mention if you still count him as a current player.

Lever no where near it, still a good player and starting to deliver consistentely again.

Teams have to meet salary cap requirements every year, so bottom teams who are often left with a lot of space pay some players a lot more than they were to get at other higher placing teams. If you want to criticise North, have a go at players like Polec, Tyson and Campbell

That’s what I’m saying mate, lots of bottom teams have bad contracts because they have to pay the cap, not just north.
Not in the top 10 of the best and fairest and on $800k a year. He is about $300k a year over what he should be on. Terrible contract
$800k a year for 5 years. Fine individual season but not in the top 10 of the best and fairest?

This. Lynch has so far delivered us 2 flags. Basically won the prelim off his own boot last year and we wouldn't have won this year without him generally. Even if he retires right now and is paid the rest of his money, it's worth it. 2 flags bring in well more money than the few million he is on.

Not until the end of next season he won’t be.
Hahahahah, turn it up. Two Premierships in two seasons is all you need to think about with that deal.

Believe that was a bit of trolling.
I'm willing to throw the Cameron contract in the ring early though. Upsets structure, costs too much.
So when everyone does the work for him? He is a liability one on one
600k for a player in the top 5 of their BnF should not even be in discussion for worst contract. They need experienced players and his contract is likely front-loaded

Five years for Rory Atkins is about four, maybe five more years than I'd think makes sense.

Pretty sure that Karmichael boosted interest in the Suns at initiation.
His negative influence off field obviously had major ramifications for the club but don't think the concept was a bad one.
Richo biding his time...Extending Simon Goodwin to 2022 in early 2019.

Rory Sloane.
The fact a club favourite needed to be offered such a rediculously long contract otherwise he'd potentially have moved was terrible on the Club and in particular him.
The Crows signed a bunch of bad ones around that time, which obviously made it look worse when they chose not to offer lesser for younger players later on.

Don't think it matters at all, one he has delivered and that is what you pay players for. Two, by the time the backend kicks in your top guys will be gone or on much smaller contracts and you will be looking around for someone to pay to hit the cap floor. Been worth every cent for Richmond.
