"It is special for Yeppoon for Harry and Ben to be now playing rep footy together … and then you've got Munny (Cameron) Munster from just up the road at Rockhampton down there with the Maroons too.


"Harry's father, Pig we call him, coached Ben for three or four years at St Brendan's and at Seagulls here in Yeppoon and he was a very patient and good coach for Ben," Geoff Hunt said ahead of game two of the State of Origin series at Lang Park on Wednesday night. Their parents - Geoff and De-Ann Hunt and Paul and Margie Grant - are friends and went to last year's World Cup final together to watch their sons. The duo played juniors for Yeppoon Seagulls. They both went to the same powerhouse rugby-league-playing school of St Brendan's College in Yeppoon, near Rockhampton.
