4. Dan Biggar (Northampton Saints) – £600,000

3. Owen Farrell (Saracens) – £750,000

Farrell will remain at the club that he has called ‘home’ since the age of 14 until at least 2022, earning himself a hefty pay-rise in the process. His new deal means he will now earn in excess of £750,000 a season, bringing him in line with some of the highest-paid players in the world.
