I was listening to K-Rock this morning and the bloke was talking to Ben Graham at the launch of Jetstar and he mentioned something to Benny about an NFL contract that he had recieved over night. Not sure how much truth there was to it as Benny just laughed it off with a no comment.
Which got me thinking, if I had the ability of Graham, how much longer would I want to play AFL for, with the possiblity of doing a knee injury, which might wreck the chance to go over to America and make millions.
Personally I think that Benny, given the recent form that he has shown, could still have another 3 good years left in him, however if the offers do start rolling in from the NFL then I wouldn't be suprised if he left.
 
He's welcome to stay, provided he takes a 50% pay cut.

It is ludicrous that he is the highest paid player at the club, and ludicrous that he makes $100K+ more than Scarlett.

I'd love for him to stay at the club with that money, but look at this.

If you were asked to slash your salary in half to finish off your career at the risk of doing an injury, or go over to the states to make millions, which would you choose?

Unfortunately, I don't see him staying any longer than another season at best.

The second option, however it's not a viable scenario, given he wouldn't make millions in the NFL.

So true.

Benny-G should retire at season's end. Whether he goes to America and tries his luck in the NFL isn't going to worry me.
 
Can someone tell me when Scarlett is contracted til?

Also is there somewhere you can go look to find out contract details(minus the wage of course) of all AFL players. I know last year someone did send out an Excel spreadsheet that had a lot of great stuff on it but I am unsure where it came from.
