You need to skip to Schedule C.
2. First Year Players
(a) An AFL Club shall pay each first year draft choice Player it employs in 2015 and 2016 the base payments and Senior Match payments per Senior Match set out in the following table:

2 (d) A first year draft choice Player shall not be entitled to, nor shall an AFL Club, pay a first year Player more than the amounts prescribed by this item 2, other than: (i) reasonable relocation expenses and living allowances as set out in item 13 of this Schedule C; (ii) bereavement assistance of up to $2,000 per Player; and (iii) any incentive bonus a Player receives for finishing in the top ten of the AFL Club’s best and fairest award.

Same wording is there under Second Year Players.

Bottom Line - definitely can't pay more than the mandated amounts to 1st/2nd year players.

So does that mean Hogan was on minimum wages last year, his 2nd with us?

    Love him!

    His modesty and easy going attitude was grossly mis-interpreted by some on this site over the preseason.

    Yes. You cannot alter the contract in the first two years.

    Just good list management. The dees are identifying who will be a part of their future and locking them up.

    Can't recall a first year player getting an extension this early. He is that good!

    jimmy Toumpas extended before he played a game! :unsure:

    Don't disagree rpfc, good strategy maybe but just a bit odd. The last time we were desperate to extend first year players was in 2010 and as I remember things Trengove signed on but not Scully, so I believe MFC is well aware that Hoges is going to be a problematic signing. 

    Brayshaw and Petracca both signed extensions last year, their first year.

    It's pretty standard practice nowadays.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
