CARLTON captain Chris Judd isn't expecting a sudden surge of rugby league players to converge on the AFL, but says the money used to lure Karmichael Hunt and Israel Folau should prompt the League to look at revising total player payments when the new collective bargaining agreement is reached next year.

Hunt (Gold Coast) and Folau (Greater Western Sydney) have signed to the AFL's newest teams after being stars at club and representative levels for the NRL competition.

Judd said current players paid little mind to the number of potential converts considering a code swap. But he also stated his belief that the salary cap needed to be considered in light of the contracts offered to Hunt and Folau.

"[Their salaries] can't have too much of an inflationary impact on AFL because there is a salary cap. There is a capped amount of money that players can be paid," he said.

"The AFLPA can [ask for more money], and I guess that's what it shows. It shows there is a lot of money in AFL football and that's a good thing for the players.

"I'm sure the AFL is smart enough to realise that come the next [collective bargaining] agreement, current players will have to get a good share of any increased revenue the AFL's making."
