Across 16 matches Hunt has built a profile defined by consistent defensive output, averaging nearly seven tackles per game and reaching 17 in a single outing — figures that point to a prop heavily relied upon around the breakdown and in the wide channels. His carrying is steady rather than explosive, contributing close to six metres per match, with a best of 18 metres in a game suggesting he is capable of raising his impact when the platform demands it. The balance between his tackle numbers and his carry load reflects a player who earns the bulk of his minutes through defensive graft.
