The Richest AFL Player?

[thompson]

Who is the Richest player?
Do we know what kind of jobs some of the players have outside of Football?

 

[shiva25]

Shane Crawford would have to be up there.

 

[skipper kelly]

voss

 

[Boxhead85]

I would have to say hird, he was polled as the most richest afl player a couple of years ago taking into account his contract and all of his other income.

 

[thompson]

i think kouta could be up there with the richest players
a couple of years ago he was pulling in 1 mill and even that year when he was injured he was gettuing 1 mill.

 

[Portia]

Hird is better than Buckley and Voss.......at moneymaking.

 

[danny rooboy]

im sure some players would have inherited riches and therefore are the richest - i think medhurst falls into this category?

 

[jc67]

Ricciuto,
2 farms, a vinyard,2 pubs and a fluky punter

 

[whythelongface]

Patrick Wiggins

 

[thompson]

was the money inherited??

 

[maccas_no1]

Running out of thread ideas are we children, this is really scrapping the bottom of the barrel

Do we really care?????? they arent going to give us any money.

 

[guess_who]

Whos the collingwood player, retired a few years ago made like 15 million bucks

 

[Nikita Blue]

Anyone represented by David Allison.

 

[JUBJUB]

Didn't Kent Kingsley,Peter Bell and possibly Adam Simpson make a fair bit in some computer business ?

Hird: one of the highest paid players, is a stockbroker, wife is a solicitor at a top firm.

I agree it has to be Hird.

 

[Dynamite_DJ]

Lawrence Angwin - but he didnt 'earn' it

 

[SkARkS_69]

Stuart Cochrane

 

[The Passenger]

hard question because no one knows what players earn outside of the AFL and what they may have inherited from their faimly etc,.

Apparently Hird wont get out of bed for less than 10k a day, even more if hes in bed with Linda Evangelista.

good call Fabphil. If i had Linda Evangelista in my bed i wouldn't get out of it even if i was offered $100k a day.

Riccuito for sure, good solid business interests as outlined on the first page, earns the 2nd most at the crows which would be in excess of 200K, the land his puba are on is worth about 2million each, his vineyard is doing well and is almost assured a job in the media whenver he wants it, this ontop of whatever boot contract he has.

All this for a quiet country lad not to bad

 

[understudy]

BRW has a richest australians list.

an afl footballer has never made it.

basically they are plebs.

the likes of G Norman, R Allenby, S Appleby and A Scott are regularly up there.
