A Must Read!!! The Real Amount the Kangaroos Got For the Orange Guernseys

[WCE2000]

As i went through the news archive's on the AFL web-site, i found out how much the Kangaroos reported they were paid for their orange strips - $250 000.
That a lot of dough.
However, a reliable source has told me, claiming he heard this directly from someone who works with the licensing of AFL Guernseys, that the Kangaroos were actually paid $1.5 Million for the orange guernsey's. I dont know if you know that down in Melbourne, but i thought it would be best to get that out in the open.

As I understand it the Roos contract is for at least a couple of years at approx. 250,000 a year.

So going by your 1.5 million they would have to stick around for another 5 years, all I can say is that I hope they got all the cash up front.
