Thanks for the link bro.

This will do me.

“‘Flanno’ is digging his heels in; he’s coming in as coach, he wants to win and he wants me there, which I understand,” Hunt said.

“I’ve never had any issues with Flanno, and we’ve had some open conversations. I think he’ll bring in a good culture; he’s straight up and down, he’s got history with being good at recruitment, and what we need is some senior players with experience who can help the young squad.

“At this stage, I’ll be heading back to the Dragons for the pre-season.”

I think there is more to it...Watch this space for 25 ?

Can a qld club just offer up a couple of decent swap options and we can move on from the Ben Dud era…limited value from a huge 6 year investment
If only one of the QLD sides valued him enough to provide a decent player swap. They all probably expect the club to release Hunt.

We should be chasing a top British half and getting the club that signs Hunt to pay the British transfer fee.

Inspirational stuff Skip.

I hope Flanno has told Hunt that his best chance to be released for 25 is to play great in 24. He might attract offers then.

I wonder if Ben will be able to understand why he isn't getting much love from the Dragon's fans when he takes the field in 2024? He appears to be absolutely clueless about how to deal with the media or the public. His after-game interviews are awful and he says something infuriating every time he opens his mouth!

Inspirational indeed...

I'm sure there is a method to Flannos madness as @getsmarty and other have mentioned, but I can't stand our Club being disrespected like this since SOO.

I would prefer if he just STFU and that way, us fans wouldn't even know the disdain he has for the Club.

" The coach has dug his heels in "... FMD.. Hostage video coming up.

Rant over, sorry brother.

OED, he's getting paid heaps of zero's from the Dragons, he doesn't give a shit.

I suspect he’s just a slow, country boy, spoiled, big kid who’s a good footy player and nothing any more complicated than that.

Yep, the sooner he goes the better. How the hell are we expected to recruit quality players when our club captain no less hasn’t got a good word to say about the joint.

There is nothing new in this article....hunt has always stated that he wanted to finish his career in QLD....

Lets just wait and see what eventuates...I believe he will be here in 24...
Exactly this. Media writing a new article but somehow adding same stuff he said weeks ago to make it fresh again. The only new stuff is the glad the season is over bit and it was hard to get out of bed.. LOL and i will be here for pre season..at this stage..LOL
I thought he was gone after this year but with you now 86..he will stay one more year and go to Brisbane or Dolphins and play out his days there at 35

A rousing interview with Coach Flanagan, followed by quotes from captain Hunt that were the opposite of rousing. Like a balloon being inflated and pricked . I hope this is not a sign of things to come.

I'm still not convinced that releasing Sullivan was the right move.
