DR. CFL Posted October 28, 2015 Report Posted October 28, 2015 That was an argument for Steele making an objective decision about where he might play. I understand he is from Winnipeg and we know geography can be a huge influence on where a player plays but there are other factors that players weigh in as well. Bigblue204 1

I think he makes a pretty good point. EDM looks like they are set to be a contender for a few years. WPG, not so much.

Taynted_Fayth Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 anyone know what an average playoff cheque pays? for a team likely to miss the playoffs again, signing here could be costing u some $
Rich Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 Back in 2010 the Grey Cup winning players earned an extra $22,800 throughout the 3 week playoffs. The losers in the Grey Cup took home $14,800. Teams going out in each of the prior rounds would go down from there. Don't know if it has gone up since with the new TV deal. Taynted_Fayth 1

I wouldn't be surprised if it has. Not bad pocket change for Xmas, is it?

DR. CFL Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 It was 16k winner and 8k loser from the CBA.
Dr. Blue Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 $3,400 for semi final participation or first place bye. $3,600 division final participation. $8,000 Grey Cup finalist $16,000 Grey Cup winner. So Rich was pretty much bang on with his 2010 numbers.
DR. CFL Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 Those numbers aren't cumulative. They are based on the final outcome.

Taynted_Fayth Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 Is that lessened if the team your on only plays the east or west final and gc? Almost seems better to strive for a home semi game (2nd place finish) than 1st strictly from a monetary stand point from players perspective

Almost seems better to strive for a home semi game (2nd place finish) than 1st strictly from a monetary stand point from players perspective no, 1st place team gets $3,400 for the bye. So you get paid even though you don't play. Taynted_Fayth 1
Taynted_Fayth Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 ok thx for the clarification. damn though free $3400. yes pls
