Ben Hunt's standing at the Dragons has taken a heavy hit, with fresh details of his meeting with Shane Flanagan coming to light, putting a further strain on their relationship.
Reports from news.com.au suggest that Hunt's tenure as captain of the Dragons is on shaky ground, with rumors swirling that he may step down voluntarily.
The star player, whose hefty contract boasts a figure upwards of $1 million per season, was reportedly called out on his lackluster performance in key moments when the team's season hung in the balance.
To add insult to injury, the club has put a hold on any talks of a contract extension, leaving Hunt's future with the Dragons in a precarious position.
According to the SMH's Danny Weidler, Hunt was "salary shamed" during the heated meeting with Flanagan.
As the drama unfolds, it's clear that Hunt's leadership and abilities on the field are under scrutiny, leaving fans wondering if the star player can rise to the occasion and turn the tide in his favor.
With the pressure mounting, only time will tell if Hunt can overcome this setback and prove his worth to the Dragons.
