Career
Hunter, who started out in the Victorian Football Association with Footscray, played as a defender and spent most of his time at full-back. He was a late withdrawal due to a leg injury from Essendon"s 1923 Grand Final team and missed the premiership but made up for it the following season when they went back to back. A regular Victorian interstate representative, Hunter transferred to Albury in 1928 and captain-coached them to the Ovens & Murray Football League premiership that year.
He returned to Essendon for one final season in 1929.
After retiring as a player, Hunter concentrated on his coaching career and had stints at both Yarraville and Preston.
