Looks like we'll be back to owning the donkeys with Hunt. I don't blame him for dropping it. I wouldn't want to win a grand final with the Broncos either.

That we own you bitches thread will be active again :D :D :D

Don't forget the Watmough deal.

A 4-year, 500k a year deal for a broken down past his prime 32 year old.

That's the worst deal I can ever recall.

Terry Hill's deal for Souffs trumps that.

$400K per year or thereabouts, back when the cap was $3.25 million, didn't play a game, "retired" due to injury collecting half his pay cheque for the year....... then promptly sign another contract and played for Manly in 2005.

As Terry himself would declare, "it wasth a clasthic lol@thouffs moment"

Wayne still not sleeping well after that dropped ball in the GF.

Dart board with Hunt's picture, voodoo doll next his bed, sticking Ipswich logos in Hunt's locker, prank calls to Ben in the early hours of the morn, putting a rat in his kit bag, nailing a 'Cowboys Premiers' poster to Ben's front door.......

Wayne sure is vindictive.

But worst of all ......

Putting Benji above him in the pecking order.

Not sure how he ever comes back from that. Dropped ball doesn't seem too bad now.

Pmsl @ those saying Hunt is gonna be a bad thing for Dragons. The high price tag will be worth it just to get rid of McCrone.

I don't think you can really appreciate how bad he is til you've experienced him in your team.

I'd slaughter my whole family if it got rid of McCrone.

f**k, that is bad..

It's a well known fact that you sacrifice reserve graders to the footy gods.

Hunt is just what Josh McCrone would have been if he were surrounded by stars.

The first year Dragons pack is ripping in and the backs are doing the job he is outperforming Hunt in 2 of the biggest areas a half should thrive in. Try and linebreak assists.

I honestly hope Hunt thrives at Dragons and haunts the Broncos. But its just hard to imagine him improving under Mary or without the likes of Boyd and Milford in the team with him.

I expect he will be more Chris Sandow than Corey Norman. But only time will tell. Right now he isnt in the Broncos best 17. Benji Marshall is.

I keep having this crazy thought that maybe if Brisbane had tried playing some football in the second half of that grand final, they would have won comfortably and this blaming of Hunt wouldn't exist.

I know, f*ck me, right?

Pretty much. That tried to shut the game down and it backfired.

Good for the Dragons that Hunt now has a humongous point to prove rather than merely living up to expectations . . . biting down on Benny's g string should last a season at least
