Biography

Easts' wartime fullback had a phenomenal career in England with Huddersfield during the late 1940s and 1950s. Hunter's ability as an attacking player was borne out by his scoring 16 tries during the 1948-49 season - breaking the record for a fullback set by legendary English Test star Jim Sullivan.
