Returns to action Sunday
Hunter tallied 27 disposals (17 kicks, 10 handballs), five tackles and four marks in Sunday's 103-51 loss to Carlton.
ANALYSIS
Returning from a four-game suspension, Hunter was arguably the Bulldogs' best, racking up a game-high 27 disposals. He is now averaging almost 25 disposals per game and should be able to build on this performance as long as he can stay out of trouble off the field.

Could return against Carlton
Hunter is available to face Carlton in Round Six after serving his suspension for an alleged drink driving incident. He'll be considered for selection, according to coach Luke Beveridge. "We'll consider him for selection this week, and with (Lin Jong) going down there's a spot there. And with (Hayden) Crozier being suspended, there's another spot. So, we'll consider him. He's definitely ready to go."
ANALYSIS
Hunter collected 22 disposals in Round One and would have likely have had a role to play if it weren't for his suspension. His coach laid out the holes Hunter may have to fill, as a huge chunk of starters could or will miss this contest.
