I don't think that Median is that informative either with so many on mimimum wage way below the mean. Median is the 22nd player. It'd just tell you what a fringe player gets paid. Median of the senior players would be good.

Judging by reports, Elliott at 650 would be below Daicos, Daicos, Moore, JDG, Cameron, Hill, Maynard, Houston, Perryman - similar to McStay - no idea about Crisp, IQ, Schultz, McCreery. I don't think he's even close to being overpaid relative to likely performance.
the distribution curve of afl salaries would have a lot more players below the average compared to the outliers on the upside. The highly paid players skew the average up.

Agree. I just don't think median is a good measure for senior players either. Most clubs would be paying as little as they can for the bottom half of the list - including the median salary, so that they can pay as much as they can for the senior team. I think you've got to isolate and only look at the senior guys for it to have any meaning when looking at the relative salaries of the senior team.

Not when we are paying Perryman $900k per season, and no disrespect to him as he had a good first season and expecting a better 2026 from him.
I think it is pretty evident that the Collingwood system is the not the easiest to pick up for a new player.

Hopefully perryman and Houston elevate their performances to a new level next year.
