^ helps his wallaby selection chances even more now that he's a Tah
Yes and hence smart for tahs to sign him as could be a good redemption story as he is no carney who was a nrl grub but yes he had a drug problem and paid heavy price and the public do like seeing people who fall of the rails but are not bad people have a shot at redemption. Deserves his last chance and could be a good news story for rugby if hunt stays clean and succeeds at the tahs. For rugby’s sake I hope that is the case as would also sell a good message for young players wanting to consider rugby as opposed to league that we will do our best to help you if you play your part.
more to the point it helps his selection chances now that he's moved to a franchise where he'll actually get to play. Cheika never dropped him, can't blame him for Thorn's decisions.
Hunt can blame himself!! Take some responsibility, and now show he has finally learnt
A big highlight package THP who played Australian Schools a couple of years ago before doing his 2 year Mormon missionary service. I doubt he’ll feature for the Tahs unless he’s been working on his scrums while he’s been awaywho is he?
Played Aus Schools in 2016, MOTM performance for Australia against NZ. He’s a lot like Tupou (except he’d be 6’3”) in that he’s a huge mobile prop with a big running game and schoolboy highlights package, hopefully like Taniela he can tighten up his scrummaging as well.who is he?
What club is he at? Southern?Opeti Helu returning to rugby this year, it will be interesting to see where he ends up by the end of the season. Not sure he'll make the Tahs this year but you never know.

Rona, Phipps gone apprently
Will Skeleton staying in England
Disappointed about Skelton, but Rona and Phipps make sense
True. Rona won't make wallabies and Phipps is 30 and post Cheika won't get a run.
I was hoping Will would come back but the money oversees is too tempting.
