Shaun Lunt is an English professional rugby league footballer for Hull Kingston Rovers of Super League.

Career

Lunt playing for Huddersfield in 2009

Lunt is a former Castleford & Workington Town player, who joined Huddersfield in time for the 2009 Super League season. Lunt has made a promising start to life in Super League, scoring a try on his debut, and adding four more in the first half of the season. On 10 May 2009, Lunt scored his first career hat-trick for Huddersfield in the Challenge Cup fourth round against Rochdale Hornets in a 38-12 victory.

Lunt is known for his great speed out of dummy-half and accurate distribution, along with his sharp eye for the try-line, which has led to many tries from dummy half in his career. He played in Huddersfield's 2009 Challenge Cup Final loss, scoring a try and having one disallowed in the process.

In 2012 he joined Leeds on a one-year loan and won the 2012 Super League Grand Final.

He went on loan to Hull Kingston Rovers in 2015 and signed for them in 2016.
