With what?

Your post. Hunt I would take first any day of the week. And I think the media has been way to harsh on him. His skills aren't up to afl standard yet but i think his work and composure in congested situations has been bloody good. He has played on 200cm players and 180cm players. He has struggled at times but second year in the game I think he is every chance of playing 100+ quality games


So .. that's get this straight. You think Hunt has been good, but Harry O'Brien is a spud? Gotcha :roll:

Harry is terrible over rated! Plays as a defender and doest know how to defend!

Hunt, has been harshly criticized in my opinion! I think he has been alot better then what has been said in the papers when you think he has been looked after.Hunt will be a pretty handy player IMO

I didnt think he did. The ball to dangerfield was not that good all day TBH. Tippett had the better delivery down there. Rodney had 12 touches and 2 goals, and Harry had 15 touches with a lot of those turnovers. I wouldnt say there was a winner in this dual. Honours even. Thought dangerfield was quite good for what came to him

To keep Dangerfield to 12 touches when the Crows were winning the first 2.5 quarters sounds like Harry played as defender and knows how to defend.

Dangerfield was for all of that time, playing at full forward and not up the ground and in the position to get alot of those touches

Looks better as a forward.
It's all the SANFL's fault.

He'll find it alot harder in the AFL than in the Sydney league, but still yes he is developing. Sheedy has seemed to have a clear plan in his AFL education.
