If you're a supposedly top class player, I don't think it is enough to say that everyone else around you was poor - you have to take responsibility for effecting change. His body language has admittedly not been as bad as Watkins', but he has run him close when I have seen Leeds. I have no particular vendetta against him, just thought he was overhyped last year and it has shown this time around.

I don't expect that we would fit him in the cap and wouldn't want to to be honest. We have Russell, ratchford and hopefully in a few years Jack Johnson. I don't think he is worth that fee really and suspect that he probably wants to try the NRL as his preferred option.

I am with this and I don't think anyone in the NRL will touch him with a barge pole.

I don't think well see Zac playing in the NRL, as he may not get a work permit in Australia anyhow.
As I understand it, Aus Gov authorities don't take too kindly like naughty boys.

His whole persona fits the person specification Mr Wane uses to recruit his players!!

I always found it hard to understand why Australia does not accept naughty boys. Surely it was a country built from convicts.

Off to Canberra for next year is the rumour.

I thought of canberra when I heard this. Jack Wighton has not really pushed on and had a shocker last week. He is 25 now and time is running out for him to step up. With the other England players at the raiders who might have had an input. At full back in the NRL you have to be really solid with a really low error count and he won't get the sort of space that we gave Leeds last year. He only has to ask super Sam.

i think his game is perfectly suited to the NRL... if someone could sort his wonky head out, he would be a great signing.

He would certainly do better than Tomkins did.

As joined Penrith with Segeyaro coming the other way till the end of the season. So he isnt guaranteed a permanent move just yet.

He's a denfensive fullback, Tomkins is an attacking fullback, Zac is more suited to that league, I've seen him shepherd many a player down the line and either take him out or allow someone else to cover tackle.
I think as a player he's a fantastic fullback, reminds me of Josh Dugan, too similar both a bit daft off the pitch and covered in tatts.

So is Segayaro worth £300k ?

Something very strange about what's happened to Hardaker at Leeds.
Not sure we'll ever find out what's gone on.

It's rumoured to be a completely non.rugby related reason for him.wanting to leave and more somthing.like home makingbhim want to get away n start afresh

To be fair to him he's spotted that his situation isn't great and that he needed to get away from his social circles. Hardaker seems to me to be very lacking in social maturity and if there is trouble to follow it seems he's naturally drawn to it. I'm not sure how 'escaping' to a much higher pressure environment, where the social element is also vastly better will help him mind. The NRL still seems deeply embedded in lad culture and there always seems to be plenty of opportunity to disgrace yourself, so it will be interesting to see how he gets on, particularly on 'Mad Monday'. Whilst Leeds get a decent player back, it's another erosion of quality for their squad. Fullback is another position they are now lacking in, with Golding not a particularly good replacement. Rumoured to be losing Watkins and Cuthbertson to the NRL (Or Warrington) as well, it's hard to see Leeds recovering too quickly.

I'd have both Cuth and Watkins at Wire. Bring them both home.
