What about a move to Wigan ? - straight swap for Bateman and Ratboy can then go back into the halfes ?

Apart from the Knights maybe Titans as well? Zillman stands out as the most bang average from that list. Either way he's probably going to end up in a struggling team nearer the bottom than the top if he goes over there. Could be the making or breaking of him being tested like that, he's not gone too well in a struggling Leeds team this year has he so it would be interesting.

Titans are serious contenders for top 8 spot. They have bought the London bred, Wigan experienced Daniel Sarginson for next year, as well as Konrad Hurrell, so that they have optiions (with Sarginson) at full back.

For a poster that loves to go to great lengths and to over elaborate on every single players name.......You really don't know jack 5h1t

There are better full backs in the Queensland cup. As if someone would pay £300k for him. Unless some landlord wanted some students evicted then they might do

So true!
And Greg Inglis...who the fack is that!! There's a Gregory Inglis that plays for the South Sydney Rabbitoh's
Also Jean clearly fails to recognise that Jack is a pet name/diminutive of John and not really a proper given name at all...c'mon Jean, get your act together man!

I cant believe any Nrl club would pay much for Hardaker, surely no one would be willing to pay anywhere near the 300K asking price. Tomkins was ripping teams apart before he went to the NRL and was pretty average over there. I dont rate Hardaker in the same class as Tomkins before his move.

What is the point of putting him on the transfer list at that price, they want rid, so might as well put a realistic price, they will be lucky to get half that, doubt NRL will pay anywhere near that fur someone with a poor rep off the field and poor form on it. Reckon only Salford would pay a big transfer for him and I don't think he would leave Leeds fur them.

Think he will struggle in NRL tbh.

He probably has a better physique to cope in the NRL than Tomkins does to be fair, and he is a very good player. I thought Tomkins was pretty good in his first season there as well before injuries disrupted his second year.

The fee is just a bit of nonsense. I doubt Leeds expect to get much if anything, but it probably signals that they won't release him to another Sl club.

I'd also add that unless Hardaker learns to pass properly he'll never be more than an average NRL full back. He'd do OK to start with because he's good defensively and a strong runner, but once opponents work out he rarely passes he'll become anonymous IMO.
