Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2750001, member: 2221"] I think some players are more capable of learning those skills than others. It requires a certain set of tools, which Hunt doesn't possess imo. Cooper Cronk is of course the ultimate example, but there are very few people like him, and I don't think Hunt is in that group. While Hunt is a talented, instinctive type of player, Cronk is a mercurial, methodical and intelligent player. Qualities, which allied to his dedication and commitment, got him where he is, even without Hunt's talent. I know Hunt's development as a half was delayed in a way by Hook, but the truth is he never put his hand up when it counted during training camps and trials, nor has he shown progress in those skills, which I consider fundamental in a halfback, in his 75 odd games since he got the starting spot as a FG halfback. In fact, I believe his young partner in the halves has shown more progress in a year than Ben in his whole career, and is probably already ahead of him in those skills, despite the youth and inexperience.
