Perhaps at most clubs, but Vikings certainly pays their players..
Just out of curiosity, what legitimate proof do you have that Vikings pay their players? Personally I knew someone closely that played First grade for 5+ years at Vikings, and was not payed a cent. I have heard from people very close to the club that players are not payed, but more looked after very well with employment and accommodation, similar to a lot of clubs. Maybe the incentive of playing with players such as Colby and Christian, exposure to good coaching and facilities is a reason quality new players arrive every year. Of course I can easily see how other clubs hate Vikings, but they built themselves from the ground up all those years ago and are now reaping the benefits. How good would the competition be standard wise if all clubs adopted similar techniques they did and were as financially stable?
