Rangers Paid Handsomely

The Mast Mark City Rangers are the highly paid players in the current bemobile cup competion. It is purported, players are paid K400 per match plus bonuses for top perfomers. When you equate that to a fortnightly wage, it adds to K800 or more. This is more than what many avarage working Papua New Guineans are earning.

This goes to show how passionate an individual like Mr. Kelly Aiyok (Rangers Franchise owner), is in promoting rugby league by providing lucrative offers for players. In return, he expects the players to perform or be axed. In that way, he ensures, players put in their required effort and aim to excel.

Mr. Aiyok has also been tremendous in supporting Port Moresby's Suburban Rugby League (second tier competition) and the Masta Mark Trials which featured the Rangers, Vipers and Aroma Coast with Cash Sponsorhip. It's wonderful how one can dig deep into his own pocket to develop our beloved game.

Good on you Mr. Aiyok. If only, all other franchise owners and corporations are like minded, then I guess, we would develop rugby league by folds.
