Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3256408, member: 9853"] [I][B]Hunt[/B] returns:[/I] “I had spoken to Pete beforehand and he gave me the heads up and said, ‘Kevvie is going to try and give you a call’, but I can’t get you in because I have to get the contract crossed off with the NRL. It was nice to see Kevvie’s number come up and for him to want me to go in and to be able to have a chat with him on the phone and then see him on the Monday morning. It was good to catch up and connect and understand where he’s at and what he needs from me." “Kevvie’s probably one of the most passionate supporters of the club and the Broncos, and he’d do anything for the success of the club and it’s great to have his energy around. I was excited more than anything." [ATTACH type="full"]12803[/ATTACH] “Just going back to some familiarity although their training facilities are newer and flashier compared to the old one across the road I trained at 12 years ago. I was just excited going in there knowing I was going to get to work with the guys in the squad and being able to start the process of being able to give back to the club that gave me everything as a 17-year-old, it was one of gratefulness and excitement.” “I know the guys would be happy with the resilience they’ve shown and the result they got against the Titans, but they understand that this is not what the Broncos are about, it’s about sustained success. I feel the guys understand they’re not where they want to be and their attitude is ‘let’s turn up, train hard and get better’ and that’s what happened today, which is great to see.” “It definitely makes me feel old when they say, ‘I was three years old when you were making your debut’. I don’t need those reminder." “That’s my goal to play, for sure. But there’s the needs of the team, then there’s form, and for me being 12 years out of the game, although I’ve been playing Q-Cup, I just need to get acclimatised with the group over the next couple of weeks and acclimatised with their training regime, and make sure I’m up to scratch with the detail they need. I feel like I can do it.” “I still think my step is still there if I need it, but I prefer to create time and space for the outside backs than put those steps on.” “Milf had a blinder against the Cutters up at McKay two weeks’ ago and really turned the game on its head and probably showed everyone that day and everyone watching what he’s capable of. He came back and did what he needed to do and he got the call-up and I thought he played a great game against the Titans. He didn’t overplay his hand, he got in the right spots, he was working well with Tyson and creating the extra man where he needed. So I think his little stint back in Q-Cup has worked wonders for him, which is great and what it’s used for. Coaches want to see a result and they got one and I’m happy for Milf.” [ATTACH type="full"]12802[/ATTACH] [I]Hunt TNG[/I] “If you had told me last year when I was at the Tahs I’d be at the Broncos this time next year, I would have told you you were crazy. To have the opportunity to start training with my old club, in Brisbane, with my three daughters and my son starting to get around the Broncos kit, it’s pretty special.” “My wife Emma couldn’t be prouder. It’s two-way. I couldn’t be more proud of her and thankful for what she continually does for me and my kids and I wouldn’t be in this position without her and her ability to be resilient and helpful when she needs to be, but as a rock and a friend. It’s full circle, there’s plenty of emotion involved.” McHunt [/QUOTE]
