Yup. I'm okay with Hunt on 1-year 'Here's you're final shot at a premiership, don't drop it' deal. Not interested otherwise.
1 year extension on the table to back-to-back if needed.
You could go two years, he's still playing well. Definitely not three though.

As a bait then. Cause I could see a repeat of the Maloney situation.
But it's all wishful thinking anyway.

Jimmy, if you read this, I've always been a fan, but you messed up big time.

Ben Hunt is 33 - 34 in march. No way would i be offering him a 3 year contract.
He's got 3 years left in him, dce a year older, aint slowing down. Age doesnt matter if youre fit and in form

Just make Hunt an offer, doesnt have to be a lucrative amount, as long as we pursue him or show interest. Give him a 3 yr contract and show him the plans/direction the club is going, how they are planning to win another title and what they have planned for him being part of it. The culture set up now and the type of players in the squad could also be appealing, compared to all the off field inhouse drama dragons have had. We also have a coach who has signed long term, so theres stability there. Might join us for less just to win a title before retirement, we are not far off, just need someone like him to partner Hynes.
Hunt has a contract through 2025... not only would he need to be released by the Dragons (very unlikely), there's no way the NRL would register an unders contract for a guy due to receive $2m over the next 2 years.

He can ask for a release and they can also release him, its possible, right now rival clubs are waiting for him to make a decision on his future. Things arent good at the club, i think they let him go if he's not happy. Neks minit he's at the broncos playing no.9👎😅

Tbh I’m over this whole ‘no ********s policy’. If there are ********s on the market who will help win footy games and make us a better side then I’m all for it. Sick of ****ing losing to these top 8 sides all of whom have ********s in them. Sign players and mould them into better people like what Bennett has done prior numerous times. And win us a ****ing comp!

Imagine Flanno had a no dhead policy

Hahahaha the jokes about empty cabinet would still be going

You need dheads/killers ; Instead we got a soft ass friendly crew that drink soy milk hot chocolates and ride electric scooters together

pretty much mate. I've been on the fence about Matt Lodge but now i don't care. Blokes done his time, he's a ****ing good player. Get him here.

Pretty fair argument to say Flanno was a fair sized dick head himself.
