Nothing has gone wrong at the PNG Hunters.
From day one they have been happy to release any player who gets an offer from an NRL, ESL or Qld cup side, and as they have trained up players, they have lost good players by the dozens.
Only 5 current PNG Hunters played for PNG yesterday - the rest were contracted to NRL or Qld cup sides, and if they had been able to fly in ESL players, there's a fair chance it would have been about 2 Hunters in the side.
That is success. They are getting guys up to a standard where rich clubs offer them good money, and off they go to improve themselves.
The current Hunters side is basically stacked full of kids who are training fulltime and trying to get a contract somewhere else.
Cheers didn’t realise the dynamics just saw them at the top then a bit lower down the following season until this year when they seem to be struggling do they still get good crowds
