Who Will Be The Highest Paid Player in 8 Years

[I Bleed Green]

Probably someone we've never even heard of yet.

Seriously, weird question, 8 years is a long time...

 

[shadow grinder]

dunno about in the NRL but some old retiring aussie player will go over to england and get some decent bank.

 

[El Diablo]

Cliff Lyons

 

[Sir Biffo]

Luke Covell.

 

[miketyson]

just remember benji, sbw, lc , pomeroy and tim smith are all gonna b around

id say sbw

pomeroy?? .. WTF? .. :roll:

8 Years is a long time. 2013? SBW may have seriously stuffed his body by then, he is already got more injuries than a lot of older players. Recurrance wil get him, especially if they send him back early.

I'll tell you who wont be........... Williams

After the end of this $400k contract he'll drop back to $200K where he belongs.

Tim Smith has an awful LOOOOONG way to go to become the highest paid player in league.

I'd place my bet on Thurston.

Beat me to it!

It's like those "name your team in 5 years" questions, and they're entirely based on current players in the system.

It's good in a hypothetical sense, I suppose, but there is a limited scope.

 

[choc_soldier]

Pomeroy - he'll be nothing more than a solid first grader, who MAY be good enough to play rep footy.

 

[lockyno1]

Got to say Sutton or Tim Smith, one of those 2.

 

[aqua_duck]

Jarrod Mullen, in 8 years time he'll be around his peak at 26, plus he's a 5/8th.

 

[Nugby]

If we include Sponsorships, where SBW would probably be winning right now, then it won't be any current NRL player. SBW will be older and less marketable, the highest paid player will be another "Next Big Thing" in his early 20s, so you're going to need to look around SG Ball for a good-looking, potential superstar.

 

[sooperdooper]

after thinking... maybe sutton. 'souths saviour' the bunnies will throw some $$$ his way

 

[panthersballboy]

Benji Marshall or Tim Smith, if they keep on track they will be among the top players by then and command the big bucks.

 

[Paullyboy]

People keep saying Sonny Bill - I dont see him playing for any more than a year or two more. He's deadset a plate of glass on legs.

 

[Razor]

SBW if he stops getting injured

 

[Stagger eel]

People keep saying Sonny Bill - I dont see him playing for any more than a year or two more. He's deadset a plate of glass on legs.

he's one of the most marketable athletes off the field, he'd still make more money if he played half the year every year forthe rest of his career.

Ridiculous.

Could be some 16 year old that hasn't played FG yet for all we know
