He was part of the Manly system just recently and I think he was also picked up by the Raiders early on. Clearly has the physical attributes. Hopefully the mental side catches up soon too before its too late...
Will probably spend most of the season in Fox again. At full strength, the NSW cup team will run Volkman and Metcalf in the halves. Then I know they are keen to give young half Sefania Cowley-Lupo some minutes there this season after the SG Ball season as well in a backup capacity. He's definitely a project and needs to work on his skills, but has been training with the first grade squad.

Geepee what was that about bunty being shipped to other clubs?
This doesn't prove he wasn't at one stage, to be fair.
Yes but I’m sure the warriors didn’t try shop Bunty afoa last month just to re-sign him for 2 more years a month later
Well to be fair since then the Kepus situation has changed so our internal promotion options have completely changed
You do realise this is the Warriors we are talking about?
Cameron George masterclass
I can really see Bunty going to another level under a coach backing him like Webster sounds to be. He’s coming into his best years as far as props seem to go with age and showed at the back end of last season at lock that he can hit some good holes under Tohu Harris’s short ball. I think he might be starting prop with Addin Fonua-Blake.
What I like about Bunty is have never heard a bad thing about him, no off field dramas. exercised his players option last year with no pay upgrade etc and potentially against a push to move him on (who knows) because I reckon he doesn't want to be anywhere other than with the Warriors. As one of a large family (has 9 siblings) I think maybe he is someone who takes his responsibilities seriously. Am hoping he will get to reap more rewards for his loyalty especially if under Webster he gets the chance to advance as a player in a team that, while lacking the cohesion eloquently explained by Fonzie, appears to me to be building unity, a key first step to any cohesive unit.
No player option, they asked him to look elsewhere, he said nah and went to work, earned his contract. Looks like that has paid off as he has just earned another couple years, good on him. Not the most dynamic but does his role well, loves the club too.
Might have been the year before? Or might have just been the last year of his contract at the time. Doesn't matter really I guess cos he did just like you said - said nah and went to work! Gotta like that & yes, earned some more years.
Zion maauu is so overrated last saw him play in that 20s comp for Auckland. Commentators were Cleary told to talk him up more then what he actually produced. Now while he may have improved out of sight without playing any footy. If your wanting him to replace Kina on the field your gonna be left very disappointed.
