Six Broncos made the Courier Mail's Top 100 Richest.
Note salaries have been adjusted down due to the 6% Covid discount:
Anthony Milford: $940,000
Matthew Lodge: $750,000
Tevita Pangai Jnr: $682,000
Payne Haas: $517,000
Corey Oates: $517,000
Brodie Croft $423,000 (number 100)
Ben Ikin shares his plans to rebuild this "disgusting" roster:
“We have to build capability and balance in our roster. We need strike, endurance, youth, leadership, game awareness, enforcers ... there’s a whole lot of capabilities that sit on a roster that go beyond positional depth."
“You want people who can model premiership habits and they come in many forms, but you need a critical mass of players who can be professional at all times. If there is a critical mass of guys who are coachable and living the standards everywhere, then that carries the team. It’s constitution, it’s resilience, it’s mental toughness, it’s not just 80 minutes it’s what you do through the work week."
“But what certainly needs to be managed around that is the salary cap, which can be restrictive at times. What sits in behind all that is what you can pay players on your roster. So getting the value of your players right and seeing what exists in the marketplace is also an important facet. The spine is hugely important. They are the brains of a footy side. I won’t go into details about the specifics of each position, but you know when you have a best-in-code dummy half or halfback or five eighth. It’s vitally important we get our spine right.”
