Most, if not all, of these players are "franchise" players.
It means they receive a hefty salary for playing the game and a chunk of the $519,000 marketing allowance, called Additional Services Agreements (ASA), which clubs were able to spend last year.
That figure has been increased to $537,000 this season.
In effect, all player earnings documented by the AFL, and exclusively revealed by the Herald Sun today, include a player's salary and their ASAs.
For example, Riewoldt's contract might have been made up of $550,000 for playing and $200,000 for marketing - the latter not being listed in the salary cap.

Hmm, Carltank have one $1m player and another two earning $1.1m.
3 players taking up at least $2.1m.
How much is the salary cap?
-
The salary cap in 2009 will be $8.81 million (salary floor $7.93 million).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salary_cap
Remember those salary estimates include a marketing component. How much is VISY paying Judd to be an "environmental ambassador"?! :whistle
Still Carlton, Freo and Brisbane have 3 players on that list and all missed the finals. Brisbane you can understand as they are premiership players but for the other two lol.

One of the tv journos at training mentioned he asked Browny if he was earning as much as was stated in the paper today. Browny replied "Nah mate. I earn at least twice as much as that!" :lol.

It's for marketing too which I would say would be massive for Browny.

Yep before Cuz arrives Browny would've been behind only Richo as the most popular player and face of the club. Browny also is a panelist on the footy show.
Btw I wonder if the journos will put what they each earn in the papers. I won't hold my breath :whistle.
-
Seriously how would they know?
The numbers are guesstimates I reckon....
Unless any journo has actually seen all the contracts they are speculating
