Ben Hunt

[Dannyboy80]

What I like about him coming is that it'll also help attract a decent coach. It looks a lot more appealing knowing you have an Australian representative halfback to help carry out your game plans. We actually have a side now for 2018 that coaches would want! Exciting times ahead

 

[Rocket Rod]

Hopefully he joins from this year, and finally get one back off Benny after he took half our team with him when he left.
There is a God !

Any HUNT is worth big money lol

Maybe Dousty thought he was signing Dan again!

 

[getsmarty]

He will sign $5m is a lot of money to knock back - 5 year deAl is rumour from agents in the know

Well done Mickeylane. Thanks for the updates.

 

[Dannyboy80]

Is this the big signing that J Moz was talking about?

 

[Dragon Slayer]

6 million dollar man!!!

Lol!

 

[blacksafake]

Doust has missed the Fri press conference.

 

[blacksafake]

If true i'm more than happy. He must have been told L plate was not going to be there next season. Maybe Dessie had a say in it?

If this rumour proves correct then I sense Mark Coyne's influence may have played a huge part plus I would not be surprised that Kevin Walters be in the picture for head coach 2018 to replace the peanut!! Just my gut feel.....expect the unexpected!

 

[mickeylane]

I'm so excited!! Finally a gun no 7..
Hunt / Field!!
OMG!! = Points

does this mean widdop is gone

 

[TheOnlyTeam]

Not a done deal yet fellas.

 

[BigBoss]

Widdop is finished if this is legit.

 

[mickeylane]

M

Not a done deal yet fellas.

Josh Massoud never wrong!

 

[SaintHarry]

Why would he sign with us without knowing who the coach is for 2018?

How do you that the club hasn't told him about what's going on at the club in 2018 .. saints are known for not letting the fans or anyone in on anything .

 

[Emu01]

does this mean widdop is gone

Yes I reckon he is gone and they will bring Field in to 5/8 to partner Hunt

 

[mickeylane]

Widdop is finished if this is legit.

You cant re sign Widdop and have Field sitting around for 3 years - the kid will walk! Plus Hunt and Widdop doesn't work as a combo...Save the $550K that you would give Widdop and use it to resign the youngsters coming thru..

 

[Alec's-saints]

Hunt wouldn't sign a 6 year deal if McGregor was in charge. hasler coming in 2018

Without doubt a great signing , and I give credit to Recruitment for finally getting their man . He will be able to give the team far more direction than we have had in many a year .
Finally , the long cold winter may very well be over .
