I'll say !
Just shows the character of the guy .... willing to stick with us for a lot less than he could've got elsewhere.
Maybe the chance to be coached by Wayne and Kevvie swayed his decision ?

I just think that he has finally got the starting 7 jersey that he has craved for years, and isn't ready to give it up... he's probably sacraficing up to 200k a year to stay with us
How does one invalidate the other?Haha, of course you do, can't let Wayne have any credit, no matter how small or insignificant

and of course you have to give Bennett all the credit even if it is undeserved.
If Hunt was going desperate to play under Bennett he would have left before his last contract, when he was playing bench hooker and there was no sign he would get the starting spot any time soon. he was also offered more money to play under Wayne at the Knights IIRC.
I doubt Bennett had much to do with Hunts decision ... more likely it was that Hunt just loves this club and wanted to stay
Mate Hunt cracked the sads when Griffin left and said that he would look at offers and may follow him if that is possible. I am not saying that he is staying solely for Bennett or any shit like that, but obviously Bennett has played some part, if even a very small part.
I am capable of criticizing Bennett, as I have already said if he appoints Thaiday like is rumoured I don't agree with that, you however just can't let anything be said without taking something away from Bennett
how is it obvious that Bennett played a part ... even if Hunt saying he would like to follow Griffin was more than just shock (at the sacking) talking ... he CAN"T follow Griffin (unless he was hired somewhere I'm not aware of).
Hunt has always said that he loves the club and covets the Broncos 7 jersey ... I'm sure that played the biggest part in his decision. I can't see any obvious factors that Bennett played a part in the decision at all ... he may have but it certainly isn't obvious.
I'm thinking of creating a thread just for Foordy and B4L to argue about stuff.....
