The top four fullbacks in the NRL - James Tedesco, Kalyn Ponga, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck and Tom Trbojevic - are all on contracts of around $1 million plus a season.

But the man who many rate as fifth best on form - Canberra’s young sensation Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad - is sitting back on $150,000.

The Raiders, in fairness, are about to put the kid on a new upgraded deal soon.

But Nicoll-Klokstad has an inexperienced Kiwi manager and word on the street is that he is unlikely to be able to extract anything like the massive deals those other fullbacks are on for the former Warriors youngster.
