Wouldn't be surprised to see them use both, in some way shape or form.
I'm waiting for all of the anti-fans to rush in and tell me how much better Slater's been this year. Sure, he's the form fullback of the comp and there's no doubting that.
But I still think Hunt is safer under the high ball, good in defence and has a strong attacking game too. I think he's one of those players who is overrated by many, and also under-rated by many, when it comes down to it. I don't know if he'll ever be a fullback, like Lockyer, who is ALWAYS labelled as far and away the best custodian year in, year out.
In terms of effort and consistency, however, there's no one even near Hunt.
