[Rumour] The Hunt for Karmichael's return to Broncos.

Well when Hodges signed with the Roosters in 2001 for 3 years, the Broncos decided to go with a long term option instead of continuing to play Hodges who was relegated to play with the Toowoomba Clydesdales. Brent Tate was his replacement, anyway Hodges and his family resented that decision from the Broncos, decided to go to the media through either Today Tonight or ACA and they did a story, painting the Broncos out to be absolute monsters.

While I think Hunt can still become an excellent player once again, he's coming back from AFL, not another Rugby code like those other guys.

Folau was a fumbleball failure and walked into the Wallabies side, Hunt just needs to pack some kilos onto his current beanpole frame.

Maybe, but you don't really even have to be good to make the Wallabies side lol. Guys like Joe Tomane, Berrick Barnes, Ryan Cross.

I think you're right GCB. Hunt has leadership qualities, and always gives 100%, I'll definitely be interested and a bit excited to gave him back. If nothing else it's a slap in the face to the AFL. Don't get me wrong , I've played a lot of AFL in my time. But the way they went about their recruitment of NRL players was completely lame. And has been shown to be so. This was a historically shameful effort and one that has been proven so with the proposed re defection of hunt.
 
I'm no fan of how it came about don't get me wrong Big Pete and I can understand the frustration behind that, but there comes a time where we have to move on if we really want to head back in the right direction, signing Hunt will sure up our quality in the back line and the depth which is especially important with Hodges absence for a fair bit of the season and Yow Yeh's uncertainty with his future.

How is everyone going to treat him if he signs with us? Will you be calling him Khunt and saying how he screwed us over?

Hope not you get behind your team no matter who they are

If I learned over time to cheer on Peter Wallace, I can certainly do the same for one of QLD's own.

I thought Ryan Cross was a very good Rugby League player. Great consistent performer for the Roosters, was unlucky not to play Origin/Australia wouldn't have been out of place in a NSW or Kangaroo side.
 
Don't get it? One minute the media is reporting how he is expected to sign with the Broncos and how Brisbane are ready for his return next minute they are saying how he will continue to play for the Suns.

Make your mind up and stick with it
