Ben Hunt is coming home to the Brisbane Broncos after inking a two-year deal with the club where he played most of his career. The 34-year-old made his decision on Tuesday, choosing the club where he played 187 of his 334 NRL games, instead of the Sydney Roosters or Dolphins. Hunt will partner with Broncos captain Adam Reynolds in the halves and will also provide the versatility of playing hooker as well.
Hunt was recruited to the Broncos as a 12-year-old by legendary talent scout Cyril Connell and came through the under-20s program before making his debut in 2009. The Queensland star contacted Roosters coach Trent Robinson and Dolphins coach Kristian Woolf on Tuesday to let them know he would not be coming.
