Such an entertaining player to watch in the NRL, back in the day..
Remember watching him make debut at 17 yrs old unbelievable him and sonny 04 rookie class so good
Agreed
He was part of the slickest back line I have ever seen with Locky at the Helm....Hodges and Tate in the center and Karmichael always putting the finishing touch of brilliance on the back end, much like Locky/Slater did. I have never seen such aesthetic and fast paced set plays, I miss those days.
Amazing to see what the broncs have become
Hes gonna be a great coach one day. Hes smart, hes lived life, has a bit of crazy, has worked with and understands individuals have different prioritys.
Totally agree. I get the same vibe from this interview that he would make a good coach. He has three codes to choose from. Smart man he is.
Good call here hahaha. Pretty sure he took south magpies in the QLD cup from wooden spoon to grand finalists in his first year!
The man ! Used to copy his Mohawk and tracks on the side haircut back in 04. Best sidestep that we all used to imitate in the hallways at school.
Amazing player and amazing person you are Karmichael. Very smart, mature and has a natural leadership through action quality. Exactly what the broncos need
Wow, he's really grown a lot as a person and seems a genuinely good bloke. He's come full circle. Well done to him.
This guy put Slater out of the Maroons 1 jersey for a few origin games.
Yeah he had the chance to be the best full back of all time
Yeah people quite often forget that, him and slater were always neck and neck for that qld and kangaroos 1 jersey until he left and then slater just grew into a living legend at the back
100% facts!
pretty sick interview they are very eloquent
Wish he had never left the NRL
He probs would’ve got injured for a bit I reckon
I feel like this guy will have a future in the NRL with and young and upcoming Polynesians and how to converse with the media . Very articulate
If he don’t sell them any Cocaine
Honestly I hope brisbane bring him back, he played 5/8 for Queensland he’s played halfback for Brisbane, he’s the right man to kick start em in the right direction. He won’t turn em in to premiership contenders. But when we have a lead he will know how to hold it. When we are on attack in the opposite 20m he won’t sit back and watch like milford, dearden and Croft do, and he won’t just pass it to a prop 5m like Croft and dearden do on the rare occasions they get interested. Pangai jnr, haas, staggs isako and several others are all a good indication of a good team, they have the athletic capabilities. They lack the brains from a halfback and the heart a guy like Parker, Carroll, Ryan used to deliver. The broncos as a team are what the cliche athlete is in Hollywood physically gifted buffoon.
He’s not carving up in the intrust cup
There’s nothing like some humility. Good to hear him giving credit to some of the games great players. A certain someone could take a page from this book.
Loved to hate him but loved to watch him , I hope he gets a chance at NRL level again .
Could of seen even better of him if his sporting career was fully NRL and he 34 now
Legend! Loved watching him playing union! Tahs shoulld have kept him!
Miss this guy! Come to broncos today
So well spoken. Good luck on the return. I think everyone respected the way your ran the ball back
Awesome boots then always too. Cool as guy
What a player!
Great interview matty, cheers.
Where the rest of it?
Definitely needs to come back to the broncos! He’ll be such an asset
Great to have him back, hopefully good and fit enough for a queensland jersey
I remember going to his first Test match for Australia, and all of New Zealand hated him because they thought he was a kiwi.
His kick returns that game were almost like he was trying to commit suicide, he ran at them so hard all game.
Also met him when I was a kid for his debut for the broncos at a pre season game, he signed my jersey and I never washed it after that.
He is a kiwi. But the chance to play origin which is many NRL players dreams means you can’t play for NZ or other country. Like Tamou, or ponga,
He is a kiwi. He was born here.
@@daniellecrummer7665 Correct and of Cook Island Descent
Legend 💪🏾
PTSD when the sirens came up
Good player smart man"
If I had the name Karmichael Hunt or was Karmichael Hunt I would change my name to Carmichael Unt just to been able to see C Unt in Rugby League week.
Hey K Hunt is pretty close, at least phonetically
@@georgedavidson2024 it's as close as it will ever get
Haha
I honestly think he should of stayed in NRL
Would of been a super star
Frank pritchard today would do 10 weeks
Admit it, we've all imitated the Karmicheal Hunt step at one point when we were all younger 😅
Hope they bring him back👍🏻
Remember when everybody tried to copy his step ! 🔥 he could of been a great !
Why cut it off when he really starts talking truth , that last minute was great and I agree with him
Those people that bagged him like Shane Crawford, were only jealous. Where do you start? He is a machine. Enter 2004, its now 2021 and he has a contract today! The only thing that might catch him off guard is how fast the game is now!
AFL is such a better game then NRL.
Not much skill involved in the NRL for mine
Such a shame we lost him from the NRL when we did. Wish Brisbane could find a fullback half as good as him.
He's actually extremely articulate
A 25k a year education will do that
???
Put him back with the Broncos you go Kay hunt you are still numero uno tough as a bull.
I was so sad when he left nrl....😢
Strange ending, was like half the interview
Izzy in the AFL was a bit of a joke...this guy wasn't...was raw but could play....won't forget that kick to win the game after the siren...I get why rugby fans would be pissed but it wasn't for nothing...
favourite rugby player
Hope he gets a start in the main game
Man could return a football
Like Wendel he could've stayed in league and became a Broncos, Queensland and Australian legend but like Wendel he became just a remembered name in our great code and respective codes they played in. They went for the massive coin for the short term gain but will have lost out overall as their lives go on. The difference is when Wendel walks down a Qld street half the people say "hey Del ya mug" and when Langer does the same every body say "Alfieeeee.....Maaaaate!"
Lost out overall? He was able to earn enough money to set up his family up for generations financially. When he gets older he is going to see his kids and grandkids have opportunties that not many have, i'd take that over slightly better greetings from strangers and being mentioned in the occasional best players lists.

Special K, Hurry Broncos get him in the side ASAP, the quicker the better
Brisbanes own Bruno Mars.
best interview in the world ever,,,great work,,,do i win free flights accom travel to from a game to see K hunt make his come back,,,thank you,thank you,,i have left the building,,
I hated him and the Bronx back then but it was fun to hate cause they were so good. Appreciate the hate! Yea his kick returns was awesome
Brisbane Broncos need him back. Give him ago again. Even if he starts of the bench first. He might have made some mistakes, in the passed, haven't we all.
Would he play for Munster
If he'd stayed injury free he could've been a very good footballer. Would've been a beast through the midfield
he had no tiktoks out when he was 17 coming up
The Broncos need to take a him in for a run!
Where’s the full interview
Wait a minute! Benji is eligible to play for Queensland?
He was talking junior footy
Wonder what he did after AFL?
Still feel like he made a mistake leaving NRL. Him and Folau were electric and left way too soon
Left? He pleaded guilty to possessing 11 grams of cocaine and was accused of selling it to Titans Players has everyone forgotten that?
Good player and multiskilled footballer bit bias he being Maori regardless he represent Ausssie.
Isn’t he Cook Islands bro?
@@chanakaranasinghe9292 Born in NZ, of Cook Islands descent, often referred to as Cook Islands Maori
For the size of the bloke, Hunt ran harder and straight than some forwards!
I mean he’s not small lol he’s 6’1” 80+ kg
92 kg on my foot card
How is it matty mate
Explained a lot about what the broncos are missing in their team nowadays. No one really shows up to games there anymore and their fullback is a fucken cat that can’t run, tackle noir catch!
How much for G bag asking for a mate
Guys a grub
Like you haha ya grub
@@Alekosdw He led a drug culture at Gold Coast Suns then named and shamed his mates when he was caught out how he could continue his career.. grub
@@floodwaters8887
Forgive an forget
Life’s to short
@@floodwaters8887 yeh fuckin joke
hows the bent pinky on the bloke
😅
Coming to get you 😅👍
Harmichael !!!!
He had a failed Super Rugby career.
He was great in super rugby just plagued by injuries. League you can play til your mid 30’s anyway
Failed..?
Bit harsh trashing your own people must not be real Maori more plastic.... some one who played three sports professionally would not be called a failure. That's gifted talent!
Super rugby as a whole is a fail
Did he play rugby for the wallabies?
He was great in union too, a bonafied wallaby
hahahahahah
@@mitcholeary1526 sorry bro how many tests do you have? Or state caps?
@@rhyssanders9122 how many have you had? so by your argument even your own opinions dead....
@@mitcholeary1526 nah I’m not the one disrespecting 🤷🏻♂️
@@rhyssanders9122 disrespecting is now an opinon? he was never a bonafide wallaby he had one season in the squad he was average at best
So weird to hear a young bloke talk about having energy in the legs. Man
Why you copying Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee ? LOL
Kamikaze Hunt
Such a shame he went to rugby!
when did you become such a flog Matthew?
yesterdays hero who cares anyone that jumps codes is a dog
Hard for people to hear, all respect to him but he was always overrated. Good part on a great great brisbane team that had some all time greats around him.
Honestly I hope he never plays for nrl again.
He could of easily won a few more grand finals and would of been a part of qld dynasty easily, but he betrayed all league fans by going to AFL.
That and the cocaine.
