Quote: Last Son of Wigan "Phil Wilkinson, a respected Journalist basically confirmed Tomkins to Cats and Hardaker to Wigan. Seems like it’s a matter of cleaning up the drug issues with Zac before a confirmation can be made.
Seems like this is the hold up. Wigan will only announce Sams departure once the Hardaker deal can be announced, to soften the blow of losing Sam.
PS Wilkinson on Twitter answered someone’s question about Hardaker as a marquee; seems like he won’t be are marquee leaving us with more opportunities for another top signing.'"
Given his history if he is asking or expecting Marquee money then he's delusional.
Had the misfortune of being out with him on a few occasions and shoving him in a taxi when he almost fought his owm mate on the same day England played NZ in the 2016 4N only for him to later complain about not being picked by Bennett.
Don't know why the delay (same as Adam Walket) but Zak IS getting 2 years, so whoever gets him it won't be until the start of 2020.
