Ben huntl

[Dragon Blood]

he will have no choice, clubs will wait, no one will pay him $900k, they will wait till January/February before a contract is signed, you have to remember he isnt due back to training till January sometime due to him playing for Australia, he will get his 8 weeks or so weeks off..

"him (kind of ) playing for Australia"

I didn't watch much of the Pacifica games (I was simply not interested). Did he even take the field in any of those games? Genuine question.

 

[Dragon Blood]

I would like to see the Dolphins trump the broncs , they could use his experience as long as Mr.Hunt decides to earn his money for a change .

May I please correct you?

I believe he doesn't deserve the title of Mr. Mr is generally referred to as a male gentleman.

Most observative fans and members of this club and forum would see him as bitch (female dog) of its recent actions over the last 18 months.

Therefore, I won't personally accept the bitch as a Mr and will always refer to it in the future as Bunt.

Formerly known as C.hunt whilst in our famous jumper

No he didnt, was 18th man i think, but it still counts as he is involved, training, media etc, his annual leave stars the day after all obligations are finished with the Australian team

Well now that you have put it that way I shall certainly change my form of address when referring to the little whiner .

I reckon they were never seriously in the Hunt for Hunt. I mean why? and where?
Or maybe for the 6th utility at the club at half his wage at the Dragons
Anyway I always thought it would be QLD but now we get the media insight into fitting players under the cap.
Yep you guessed it "jobs after football retirement" which apparently goes off? the cap at the market rate of the job (extract from FOX but interpret the wishy washy clause as you wish)

"Under NRL salary cap rules, in the final year of their career, a player can be paid off the salary cap as part of their transition into retirement. It is understood the role has to be documented and the payment has to be at market rates."

That is how Roosters do so well as they look after their players post playing through their well connected corporate BOD. (e.g. access to finance, business, media and god knows what else)

The point is we all whinge about the cap and how some teams fit their players in etc
The media and NRL kept banging on about it evens the comp
Sort of True..but there are so many parts and interpretations that we dont understand and for me..
loop holes to stretch it to the limits

Dragons need to do better in this department for all including youth as they transfer from out of town / school etc
I feel we have not had the right smarts of staff or business acumen to use it to our advantage as well as many other teams

Being part of the aussie squad (despite not playing) has probably pumped Hunts value up in the eyes of the NRL also.

Rooster's are interested
With Smith injury and on the nose
And Walker injury as well
I'm sure rooster's are working on a few plans
