Since 2004, CEO Andrew Demetriou's pay has gone from $560,000 to $2,100,000 - an increase of 275%. Average player payments have gone from $184,656 to $226,165 - an increase of 22.5%. Photo: Alex Ellinghausen
From an annual pay package of $560,000 - less than many of the best-paid players in the league back in 2004 - his pay climbed to $2.1 million last year, double that of dual Brownlow medallist Chris Judd. Last year the league's 11 key executives - who all report directly to Demetriou - earned $6.2 million between them, an average of $536,500. That's well above the $365,922 earned by Prime Minister Julia Gillard, and 12 per cent more than the year before.
