Highest Paid Centre In Rugby League
[urlhttps://www.seriousaboutrl.com/toronto-star-is- ... tre-22625/][/url]
When you hear the words ‘most expensive centre’, names such as Australia stars Latrell Mitchell, Josh Morris or Will Chambers may come to mind.
It will come as a surprise, therefore, that the world’s highest-paid centre doesn’t actually play in the NRL, nor does he compete in Super League.
That’s because it’s Toronto flyer Ricky Leutele.
Toronto star Ricky Leutele is the highest-paid centre in the world.
The 29-year-old was the Wolfpack’s highest-profile recruit to date when he signed from Cronulla ahead of this season, signing a deal earning him around £430,000 ($800,000) per year.
He has gone on to star for the Canadian side, scoring 18 tries in 27 games.

I read this earlier
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Highest Paid Centre In Rugby League
I’d assume they’ll spend even more of and when they get promoted?

Re: Highest Paid Centre In Rugby League
If they do get promoted will the Salary Cap not apply to them?
