His death comes one day after former Brisbane Lions player Troy Selwood died at the age of 40.
Essendon’s VFL coach Dale Tipping also died at the age of 59 on Tuesday following a cancer battle.
Hunt – a Western Australian – was drafted by West Coast with pick 29 in the 1999 draft.
He debuted in the last game of the 2000 AFL season, and played nine the following year.
The talented defender established himself as the team’s first-choice centre halfback in 2005 and helped the side make it to the grand final that year, which they lost to the Swans.

The same teams met in the 2006 decider a year later and this time West Coast triumphed.
Hunter was pivotal in that title.
He kicked 11 goals throughout the finals series and booted the last goal of the grand final, sealing the result.
He suffered serious knee and shoulder injuries and was forced to retire in 2009.
