Just realised how much better watching the game would be if there was option to sync the game audio to Super Mario Bros.

I know there’s a joke in that but I’m missing it...426, if not the season.
Could we play him as a defensive forward? Aside from this year he has normally been ultra competitive and has obvious pace, yes his actual skills aren’t ideal but he wouldn’t need to get 15+ disposals a game up forward to impact the game.
You can play any one anywhere in modern footy mate. Would need to work on his marking and goal kicking because his actual footy IQ Is low compared to a Hannan for instance
I know, but I’m really unsure about him in the back half with his inability to find the ball and also use it well consistently. Honestly I still don’t see him getting another contract with us right now because aside from his pace he doesn’t have anything else of value.
Inability to find the ball? Averaged 18 disposals last year, more if you take away the game he was KO'ed and the Swans game he played as a forward.I know, but I’m really unsure about him in the back half with his inability to find the ball and also use it well consistently.

Good defensively both on the ground and in the air, good tackler, displays some intercept mark ability, pretty good ball handling and decision making in traffic. Yeah he'll have to work on his kicking but he was never a one trick pony. Pretty solid all round defender and if he did turn it over it was generally 80m away!
All though summer and in to the season he wasn't healthy. Get him fit and he'll bounce back if not right back in to the 22 then at least as very handy depth who'll play a lot of games.
Is averaging under 12 touches a game in 2018. His ball handling is horrible, fumbles just as much as ANB does if not more. His defensive work has also been well under par this year.
I’m hoping it is just he has had a crap season but I’m seriously worried about his future, and hopefully we’re looking at other HBF options if Hunt doesn’t have a form reversal.
I have concerns about him too, but I like it when you trash a player online. Gives me hope he might Brayshaw it up in 2019.I agree mate, when someone says he has good ball handling it makes me think they rate everyone.
Oliver is elite
Hogan/Jetta are good
Gus is average
Hunt is poor
Argue with those all you want campaigners but Hunt doesn't have good ball handling relative to other AFL players.
Intercept marking?
Lever is elite
Jetta is very good potentially elite
Hibberd is good
Hunt is average at best.
I also don't like the well if he turns it over it's a long way away... That's still a turnover and it's coming back with interest.

Nah.My Harmes call doesn't even this one out? No? ANB? No? ... Vanders?
**** all yall
Thoughts?
Showed some good signs - one chase down on the wing I remember for HTB, then a great run and carry through the middle of the ground which resulted in a goal. That's what we want and need from him.
I really think he could be much needed game changer for us if May and Lever can come back and stay fit. A little less defensive responsibility could free him up to take the game on.
I think anytime someone with legspeed plays an average game its always judged through rose coloured glasses
On one hand Jones is cooked an should never play again, on the other hand is Hunts return to form and how dangerous he was.
*Again dont think Jones played well, but I think it highlights the weird standards for players

I agree with the general principle of what you're saying but it's not so unfair to have different benchmarks for two very different players. Jones is a proven player that has consistently shown he is better than that. Hunt is still getting there. Expectations will always be coloured by past performance.
Standards of fitness, intensity and commitment are universal of course.

Have you got one for ‘metres gained’?
He can be pretty handy at moving the ball forward. Sometimes a clanger is t so bad if they’ve run it 50 and kicked it 60.
You've put Hunt against our best pressure player and highest for the game. Viney put on 25 pressure acts our 2nd best with Spargo who didnt get a tackle but alot of nearly tackles. Jones had 7 1 of our worst behind our defendersThere is a tonne more available too

Hunt 14 ( ANB had 30)
