If you don't care about attacking prowess or defensive skills, and just want a fullback who runs the ball like a prop then you can have Hunt.

Whoever's picking Bell for QLD needs to lay off the PCP. He'll be lucky to be playing NRL when Matai comes back.

He's also done nothing to gain his spot back,Minichiello missed his spot due to injury and is yet to get it back despite playing quite well.
That's called bias.Admittedly it would be better if he didn't pick out the opposing 8 and 10 when kick-returning and sprint headlong into them, but I'd still take Hunt over any other fullback, for the Broncos, Queensland, and Australia.
That's called bias.
Running as hard and fast as they can at the opposition front row, isn't high on the priority list.
He hasn't done anything to warrant a test jersey PERIOD. He only got his first jersey because Australia wanted to keep New Zealand from using him.Slater should get the gig on form, but Stewart will probably hold on to the job. Hunt has done nothing so far this season to warrant a test jersey.

Hes killed it in every game hes played for Australia.
You mean when he got knocked out?Hes killed it in every game hes played for Australia.

Being unbiased here... i'd take Stewart, Slater, Bowen, Gidley, Patten, McKinnon & Burt... and a few others over Hunt. Fullbacks are meant to fing gaps, make line-breaks, score tries etc.

He's probably the safest FB under the high ball

Brett Stewart deserves to retain his spot as do the 17 who played so well against the Kiwis late last year. One of the better team performances I have seen by an Aust league side in awhile.
Hunt is the safest fullback under the bomb in the NRL. The last bomb he dropped was vs the saints at WIN in 2006....and i watch all bronco games.
Sure, he doesnt run 100m to score tries like Slater or Stewart, but there is more to fullback play than that.
I dont get it... I hate the Broncos right but Hunt is a gun player... He runs the ball back harder then anyone, makes great metres off kick returns, his support play is just superb he gets really into those 2nd man plays. NEVER drops a bomb, hardly ever misses a tackle, cover defense is superb as well... I dont understand all this Hunt hate... Definately deserves it over Gidley, but I love him dont get the wrong idea, I just feel Hunt is still better!!!
