With the constant references to pay being the only factor in where Lunt goes, people are missing what's probably the bigger factor: playing time. If Huddersfield are telling him he'll be their #1 hooker and will play te majority of every match, that's going to appeal more than the idea of playing part games as Burrow's understudy.

I think , if true, that that would be an exceptionally short sighted view.
Why would a hooker want to go back to Huddersfiled with no real prospect of development other than playing more minutes, when the alternative is to understudy Burrow in the short term knowing he will eventually move into the driving seat, whilst learning from not only in James Lowes, an experienced hooker, but also from some of the best players SL has ever seen, integrating into a team that will without doubt develop him beyond anything Huddersfield could hope to?

Lunt would've preferred Leeds over Hudds, not arrogance just obvious. What probably happened was that the 2 teams either....
- Couldn't agree a deal.
- Hudds needed him back after missing out on other targets.
- Leeds lined up another signing.
The 'Lunt picked Hudds' line is simply decent media spin by both teams to ensure the guy is more welcome back there than he would've been had the story been 'Lunt deal collapses, forced to return'. Hudds fans will be much more happier to have him back believing he picked them over Leeds.

He wasn't getting any playing time at Hudds which is why he came on loan in the first place.
That may change now with Anderson in charge and, more importantly, with Brown moving to Widnes.

Why do you think he'd believe he'd move into the driving seat here? He's Burrow's backup, with our coaching staff showing a clear preference for Burrow.
Conversely, perhaps the new coach at Huddersfield has told Lunt he's his first choice hooker and he wants him to play 80 minutes a week.
If your job is a full time rugby player, and you aren't playing much, what are you? |

"He's the best coach I've had... His mix of man-management and his game plan is second to none. Since Brian Mac has been in charge, we've been in every final so far. I love playing for him. I can't praise him enough, I've so much respect for him and I hope he's here for a very long time." Kevin Sinfield 29/9/12:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_68506.jpg |

Don`t forget we got the double over you lot this last season, it was only Leeds hitting a purple patch at the end of the season that did it for you. You were no great shakes through most of the season. |

Did you think the same of Mo Farah in the ten k? Sat in the pack for ninety five percent of the race, maneuvered into position then outsprinted everyone to the line. |

Because Burrow is ten years older than him just about. |

Someone who still has a lot of developing to do and much to learn? It's not about waiting it's about forcing your way in surely? |

I guess doing the double over the champions is a great feeling? Unfortunately we never get the chance these days.
I wish my team would get my hopes up every season, then fail spectacularly when the going gets tough. Really I do. |
