How ugly Hunt saga finally came to an end... and the ‘tactic’ that was the last straw

The straw that broke the camels back.
It’s said that Flanno calmed him down post Hook, but behind that, Flanno simply wouldn’t release him.
I think Flanno realised that Hunt was a means to have a fair first season for Flanno and for the good of the club.
So he kept him and at least for awhile the Flanno/ Hunt matrix kept the ship afloat, albeit rolling from side to side.
The review happens ( flanno is not a rookies again man) and Hunt is deemed to be underachieving, especially for his price.
And hes slammed from pillar to post, takes gross offence and then sulks off to his mates niggling at Flanno and Kyle (weak).
Then he’s “ well there will be no pre-season for me” and it’s milkshake time.
“ No one is bigger than the club” is a clear signal to Hunt that Flanno thinks he’s a dickhead.
Flanno has a lot of respect in the game and it’s rare that he shirtfronts people individually publicly . He will go hard on the team as a whole, but he usually praises individuals if they deserve it, not scalps individuals.
