I think that this is so much a bulls..t rumour, it is not funny. I think Hunt has a 1 year option in his favour to take up which means his contract finishes at the end of 2024. Subject to who will be the next coach after 2023 (last year of Griffin's tenure), that coach might play Hunt in the 9 position and by that time, the likes of Muhlheisen, Sullivan, Sloan and Amone or any other youngster coming through will emerge full time that is if they haven't been lured elsewhere.
Bringing Munster to partner Hunt in 2024 to me definitely won't happen - no way. Although they patched up differences as per

Before anything, the Dragons need to get the young guns playing together right now. Forget about this year and start planning for the next few years and get them to "grow" and experience full time first grade and toughen them up. No use waiting when we just don't really know how they will be - they could be crap but we have to see for some period first and if no good, then go for better guys and pay for it. No use hedging our bets - just do it - nothing to lose.
