Ben Hunt - Appreciation Thread

Re: Benny Hunt.........The best Halfback in the game!

If Hunt was bigger he would probably make a good 13, as for his 7 ability, he can't kick and more often then not his passing is ill directed, watch next game and see how many drop balls he causes.

I must be watching different games

Re: Benny Hunt.........The best Halfback in the game!

Do people not remember the deadly second man plays that used to go through Hunt? He'd put in passes for tries, kicks for tries, sometimes would even take inside passes off Thaiday or Hodges for tries.

Re: Benny Hunt.........The best Halfback in the game!

the OP was right according to the courier mail

McGuire’s claim that Hunt is the premier halfback right now has merit.He leads the competition in line breaks with 11, a phenomenal feat for a man who stands just 178cm tall and weighs 85 kilograms.
He is also in the top five for tries scored (seven) and try-assists (nine).
Cronk has 15 try assists and Cherry-Evans has nine but otherwise their attacking statistics are well below Hunt’s.

PS.

there is a Manly fan in the comments who appears cut up about the fact that the courier mail would dare publish an article claiming that Hunt is going better than DCE :laugh:

Pls

I'm sorry mate but this wont happen K Hunt wont come back and play lock at all. If he is to come back it would be in the backline 6,5,4,3,2,1 not 13. It would be a huge task to get the weight and conditioning needed to play lock. He would get smashed.

How are the Dally M stakes looking? I doubt he'll actually win it but Hunt has to be looking at a fair few votes.

What is that Qcup player doing there with 10 pts?

Re: Benny Hunt.........The best Halfback in the game!

They were asked on Saturday night too.

Think it was Chris Garry who asked him about Hunt's role as a utility. Unfortunately wasn't the right context to really go into it so it was sort of waved off as 'that was just the way the selections were going at that time' which is a total non-answer but whatever, it's a loaded question and would probably require too much transparency.

And Cherry-Evans is on there twice!

It's not like they've been playing bad or anything, they're playing pretty well.. but yeah I agree Hunt should be equal, if not higher than both of them, but Dally M isn't always voted as such.

Re: Benny Hunt.........The best Halfback in the game!

DCE has 21 points combined? Blows our "Hunt is the best halfback" out the water right there...
