Is Fifita on 850k?
You can always argue about whether you wanna believe different sources numbers or not but that's the number that has been widely reported for duration of contract. Personally I think it is fine to discuss the numbers as presented, knowing they may not be accurate, and if new info comes out then you can update the discussion. But some people don't like it.

While I agree he earned it carrying him on that much since his knees started to give way hasn't done us any favours.

Nowhere near that value now but I'm just happy to see him playing well again so he doesn't just dribbled out of the nrl like it looked like he might.

Just looked further at that resource it is extremely incomplete

Isaiah Papali'i on 150k is the 50th highest paid player haha

Some interesting POs though, Jarrod Croker has one for 2024 @ 470k. Be funny if he took that up.

Wighton can shop himself around for next year, surprised Dolphins didn't have a crack, but it'd probably have take 1.1m+

As I think has been mentioned Burton contracted for next year but 2024 is PO

Croker scenario would be hilarious but he's not a **** of a bloke & Raiders will look after him.

Gus won't be letting Burton go.

Although I like Burton, I do think he really needs to be partnered with the right half to get to the next level he is capable of.
Could be argued for most halves, but yeah. Him staying is probably pretty good for him and Flanno Jnr (assuming he keeps the gig)

I hope Croker takes up that player option just to throw shade at the rabid Raiders fans that have turned on him and a coach that no longer shows him much love

+ so we can see him cry one last time exiting a finals series (if they make one...)

seems like a good bloke though but plays for a merkin of a club and I always hated his winging and sooking

Flanno Jr, isn’t the right half for burton. I like his attitude, defensively awesome but he just lacks the skills of speed, a running game and a kicking game in the modern NRL. Club’s gonna have to develop within in which we suck at doing.
