But you can't run all day at AFL level, read the play, run forward into space and present an option and mark the ball.
He only had one shot at it, with the game riding on the result not like you who eventually would get it though
with enough attempts.

The only thing you're right on there cos me boy is the first comment. Nup i couldnt run all day at AFL level. But apart from that khunt did nothing your everyday run of the mill 2nd grader at club level couldnt do nine times out of ten So quit your babbling. Khunts no superstar, he's an ordinary, sub par, snore inducing player. Give your favourite code some respect cos and realise the khunt for what he is rather than inhaling the shmack induced hysteria the AFL has pimped out to all and sundry. Grow a brain you twit.

Grasping at straws again KE.

It would be interesting to put a value on that kick.
An extra 1000 members @ $$00 would make it $500,00 perhaps.

.

Grasping at straws? Ahh how about stating the bleeding obvious.

I'm not the one trying to quantify what khunt's worth here so i think you're the one grasping at straws. Please apart from composure and fitness tell me one thing khunt did which indicated a high level of skill in his game winning kick the other night? I'll help you out. The answer is nuttin.

As to your pie in the sky $$$ estimations I'd argue you're way off. Khunt is yesterday's reality tv freak. Noone really cares anymore apart from the media and the AFL. He came on the scene more than 2 years ago. So that kick? Maybe it might have encouraged 23 new memberships. Whoopididoo

Again cos i urge you to give your code some respect rather than marvelling at the actions of an ordinary, sub par, snore inducing, yesterdays reality tv show experiment hack of a player.

Why dont you talk about a real upcoming star like lewis jhetta in the same way? Again you've been had by the media and AFL hype. Grow your own brain and opinions cos me boy. You'll be better for it.

The obvious. Let us see.
KH is an AFL standard player playing in the the AFL. You are not.
KH played well to be in the right position at the right time an executed a difficult winng kick.
The media attention to this situation has been huge.
It will have encouraged a lot of people to continue or buy memberships.

And you're hurting bad.!!!

You havent been able to answer or adress my questions or posts at all looney boy. I thought it was great khunt kicked a winning goal good for him. But im under no illusions as to his quality as a player. He's ordinary and subpar and his goal was nothing special apart from the time in the game that he kicked it. I still cant believe you're happy to laud over this character and this goal more than some of the real stars of the game. You sir have been swept off your feet, head over heels, by the AFL false advertising ploy to market a product that is substandard. I'd imagine since seeing the khunt swiss add you now have a cupboard full of swiss vitamins

K.E you are wrong and if you knew anything about footy you would know this.Hunt is not a star yet but he is far from sub par.His work around the ball is excellent and his presence around the middle essential to those kids.Sure he is not piling on the possession but this will come with stamina and his ability to stay with the contest but most of all when he has the ball he has time and vision.You can't teach this.The fact that you compare an outside player like Jets with a grunt like Hunt shows your limited knowledge.For a second year player Hunt is showing more than enough to justify his position.As an inside mid he has massive upside.You claim that none cares but the media that maybe one of the truly stupidest statement you've made.Are you seriously saying the media follows people noone cares about.Apart from exposure,talent and presence he doesn't add much at all.Stick to bum sniffing mate that's easy to understand.lol

Looks like Khunts going greatguns this season pookus. He's in at 24th on the dreamteam points scale 24th in a team which fields 22 players on the field at any one point in time. And you wouldnt say that's "subpar"?

Deary my you lot have been completely mindfucked by the media and the AFL. Good on ya's, ya pack of drones.

There you go you don't understand the game at all. Dreamteam points that's funny.You obviously don't know what his role is so don't comment.You try to tell people you know both codes but the naivity of your last post and that you looked up dream team stats as reference shows hoe clueless you are.lolI know my footy my dear newbie and I don't need anyone to tell me that K is well worth the dollars.

Dream team points were presented to me as an effective and objective measure of a players success by the moderator of this forum and long time AFL fan Xman.
I think you should have a word to him.

I prefer to watch their on field performance and having watched a few full games of the khunt i know he has little impact. Seriously if you think khunt is worth the millions he receives for his playing ability alone you are a deadset turkey.

Where do we say that ?

But KH is surely paying his way now regardless.

No one has ever said that he gets all that money for playing ability you silly man.The point is that you said he was not up to standard.This is wrong.Now I can't be bothered schooling you on what you claim to know but an inside mid will never score high in dream team and obviously you can't appreciate what K does because you don't understand it

An inside mid will never score high on dreamteam? Well again I think you and Xman need to chat as he would disagree and he puts himself up there as the know it all of AFL. Personally i tend to believe you somewhat more but I can only go on what i've seen which is about four games where khunt had little to no influence. He rarely gets his hand on the ball which an inside mid should and his disposals are generally poor which for an inside mid is not on. You can have all the "time and vision" in the world, this to me is still very substandard. And to continue throwing money at him simply because he comes from another code and has promo value is just one big joke on the fans and on the code itself.

How often have you watched this hyped up promo bunney play pookus?
