Where the hell did this Windsor compared to Hunt thing start? They are both quick, that's where the comparison should end. Nothing alike. Their running patters aren't even the same. Don't even play sane or similar roles. Windsor looks much more composed and much more damaging. Hunt was one of the most frustrating players we've had in recent times. Had 1 quite promising season then never lived up to what we'd hoped. That's why he's currently on arguably the worst list we've seen in yearsI find it strange you keep coming back to this.
I also find it strange people are comparing handpasses of Windsor and Hunt. Every handpass looks the damn same unless you wear a Dees jumper in which by law it needs to go to your targets feet. (Or throw the ball in bulldogs case).
- Windsor and Hunt both run fast
- Windsor and Hunt both play wing
- Windsor and Hunt both have good defensive running
- Windsor and Hunt both break lines
- Windsor and Hunt can both roost a goal from 50 out
- Windsor and Hunt both miss targets / team mates regularily by foot
- Windsor and Hunt both don’t solve our gaping hole in next generation inside mids/KPP on our list
- Windsor and Hunt both struggle to rack up 20+ disposals a match
Yes Windsor may develop into a better player than Hunt long term, he wasn’t worth throwing all our eggs in for when we already had a plethora of wingmen or blokes capable of playing wing on our list - Langdon/Hunter/Brawshaw/Billings/Howes/Woewodin/Salem/Tomlinson
Meanwhile we are looking to rely on Sparrow and Laurie to lead the way in the guts and blokes like with Jed Adams needing to carry our D50 in a few years.
