So be happy he is not your problem and its somebody else now.

But now he is at a real big club.

I talked to a friend of mine who is a doctor at Leeds Rhinos when we (Cas) signed him.
His comments were “lovely lad, great player but there’s no cure for stupidity”.
He’s managed to screw up at two highly successful clubs during his time there (admittedly that was only one season at Cas). He will inevitabely do so again.

Hardaker admits in the As Good As It Gets film about Leeds that he was sent home for going out drinking and getting into a fight. Came into training the next day with a black eye and tried to lie to everyone that a door hit him in the face and McNamara immediately called BS on it. Makes out McNamara and the person he was in a fight with as those at fault and he was just unlucky.....usual unfortunate victim mentality every time (just like his drugs trial when puts it on his friends leading him astray)

its a long time until he even pulls on a Wigan shirt so, with his track record, hope the club have him on a tight reign!

[list
[*got thrown out of the 2013 world cup for drinking[/*:m
[*was suspended for 5 matches in 2014 for homophobic abuse[/*:m
[*had to attend an anger management course in 2015 after beating up a student[/*:m
[*in 2016 he demanded a transfer from Leeds, struggled with depression and battled with alcohol and prescription drugs (but seemingly didn't get into any legal trouble!!)[/*:m
[*and, last year, he had a wonderful season for Cas but was tested positive for drugs: missing the GF and the world cup[/*:m[/list:u

As to him generally being a prick... he has been known on several occasions to be scheduled to attend various kids events only to just not turn up (and not bother calling), leaving the kids quite a bit disappointed.

However, there's no doubting that when he is fit and his head in the right place he's a match winner. So good luck. Who knows - maybe Wigan can somehow tame his more tempestuous side.

sorry my mistake thought he had singed for Wigan not resigned at Leeds

I thought he’d chubbed up a touch too

Not happy about this - feel it is a very wrong step no matter how good a player he can be.

I wonder how long it will be before Wigan come to regret it........might see if I can put odds on it.

With Tomkins leaving this feels like a straw being grasped.

Leeds & ???

Didn't Cas re-sign Rangi Chase???

This is the type of thing a bitter ex girlfriend would say to her ex's new partner. Soooo bitter and soooo funny.

Barber got 12 game ban for same offense, so lets keep things in perspective

My view i know wigan will have the contract structured correctly for whatever happens, we also have escare around aswell
