Royce Hunt shone with a 40-metre try for Wests Tigers, signaling his potential for the World Cup and facing his old club.
The man from the Western Australia gold fields provided a gem of a try for the Wests Tigers in front of a raucous Leichhardt Oval crowd on Thursday night.
Royce Hunt's 40-metre charging run through the middle of the Raiders for his second try in 2026 also fired a warning shot to his old club Cronulla and produced food-for-thought for Samoan selectors on what the prop might be able to conjure at World Cup time.
Kalgoorlie-born Hunt will play his 99th NRL game in Round 9 against the Sharks at the ground he spent five years at - Ocean Protect Stadium.
