Rugby: The high price of success
New Zealand Herald – Feb 17, 2008

In comparison with New Zealand’s average salary of $40000 top rugby players seem to have it pretty good. An estimated $32 million was pumped into the professional game last year and the best estimates are that the average salary of a Super 14 player in New Zealand is slightly more than $200000 a year. But compare that $200000 a year with major sporting codes around the world and the package doesn’t look so tempting.
