Should the Broncos renew Hunt's contract

[Cult]

Raise your hand if you wish your career was fabricating rugby league stories for a glorified blog? Of course I'm envious of his position. I'm basically on this forum and twitter talking about rugby league for too many hours of the day anyway. Why wouldn't I wish I was getting paid to do it?

I really don't understand your point. Are you disputing my comment by poorly attempting to say that he could maybe possibly be right this one time and therefore should avoid any criticism based on his past of being incorrect basically all the time?

If you remember back to the original quote, I simply asked what's the point of your comment as it's a nothing statement. If he's wrong he never gets anything right, but if he's right well he never gets anything right so whatever.

It's a perfect example of cognitive dissonance. Nothing more nothing less. I was amused by it. You seem to be more bothered about it than I am, hence the line of questioning.

not too difficult was it?

Come on guuuuys. No one cares that much.

I've had my fun I'll be good.

Bennett, Broncos won't let a player go of Hunts ability unless they had a good replacement. The only 2 I can say is Taylor back from titans or Luke Brooks.

 

[Old Mate]

Give him whatever he wants.

 

[mitch222]

What the **** is it with Luke Brooks. The dude is a spud. Moses & Tedesco make him look good

 

[Renegade]

Can't tackle to save his life either. Next Andrew Johns my arse.

We talking about Hunt again? :confusing:

Once again, it is going to be a long long off-season. I have largely stayed out of this one, but the only basis upon which we ship Hunt out is if we have signed a superior replacement. That has not occurred and is not likely to occur before the end of the next season. I think he better hope he has a good season next year, otherwise he could be on very shaky ground.

otherwise he could be on very shaky ground.

Not if the Broncos commit to the type of deal that keeps Ben Hunt here.

That assumes that contracts mean something in RL, and increasingly as time goes on, that has proven not to be the case. Even if they sign him to a longer contract, it does not mean he is secure. If a club wants a player gone, they are usually gone.

It isn't as simple as that.

That's why it's such a tough decision for the club. They have a limited amount of time to assess whether Hunt it's worth the investment. They can't just offer him the deal and then take it back a year later without it causing considerable harm to the club.

Any super league halves Bennett can bring over?

I've heard good things about this Christopher Sandown or whatever. Real schemer, excellent kicking game, indigenous too, so would obviously be a candidate for captaincy.

Not just the captaincy but hall of fame membership and walk up start to broncos team of the century

When they dropped Widdop in the 4 Nations, The English Halves pairing were superb.
Was one of those players George Williams?

 

[mitch222]

English halves are terrible. Hunts way better than them
