Recruited from Doncaster in Melbourne's outer east, Claude Hunt was a short-lived utility who earned a brief trial with St Kilda during the 1911 VFL season. Standing 175cm, he was brought into the senior side as the Saints looked to bolster their depth during a middling campaign where they eventually finished sixth. Hunt managed just two appearances in the red, white, and black but failed to trouble the scorers or make a lasting impression on the selectors. Unable to cement a spot in the rotation, his league career ended as quickly as it began, with Hunt remaining one of the many pre-war players to have a fleeting taste of elite football before slipping out of the system.
