- Biography:
Auckland-born centre Hymel Hunt is set to light up the Knights backline in season 2021.
Following brief stints on the Gold Coast and in Melbourne, Hunt found regular football in his three-year stint at South Sydney.
A strong outside back with speed to burn, Hunt found a home in Newcastle and made an instant impact in his two-year stint.
Hunt has only missed just one game in his two seasons at the Knights, scoring 17 tries and forming a damaging combination with Enari Tuala on the right edge.
With another full year of footy and gruelling pre-season under his belt, 2021 shapes as a huge season for Hymel Hunt.
