And if you read his statement it sounds like William Shakespeare worded it, and Carey Grant delivered it! https://www.totalrl.com/zak-hardaker-on ... confirmed/

I actually think you should be ok. You've taken him on a short term contract and surely even Zak won't mess up yet another opportunity in such a short space of time. Surely?......

Ordinarily I would never feel sorry for Wigan but I do feel sorry for them in this instance. They've been unbelievably supportive throughout and are now a man down whilst not even receiving a transfer fee.

I'm sure they'll have money on the cap now to spend but its hard to sign during a season and also its something that they probably haven't looked at in much detail before the season started.

Hardaker has got exactly what he wants and will undoubtedly still be on a good wedge.

We got him for free, and as long as we havent paid a brass button to get shut of him, its fine by me.

Was about to say that. You got some food service out of a top player . You knew what you were signing he would never have left Yorkshire in first place without the issues!

Without Wigan, this guy wouldn't have had a career by now. The time, effort and faith shown in him by the club has been massive. Had he joined a club closer to home 4 years ago, he would probably have reverted to type long ago.

We thought we were signing a top player. Reality is, he is a slowing average player who very rarely stood out for us. Good service? Debatable, brought plenty of baggage and kept trouble close by all the time. We are well rid and Leeds have made a mistake. I thought Leeds would be up there this season but the reality is you in a race to the bottom. Austin and Sezer obviously aren't interested and Hardaker will bring out the worst in your gullible players. Good luck, you will need it.

I think the problem is though mate, he would’ve had a career and he knows that. He’s always had that safety net of his talent getting him another club, whatever he gets up to and here he is again, coming out of a situation in what he will personally see as a better position.

I recall when we signed him and I didn’t want him but in fairness to him, he got his head down and some respect for him built up over time. I think me, like many others, has lost that now but I don’t think we’ll lose any sleep over him. The club lost itself for a while regards signings like him and it feels like he’s the last player we had who could put us under a cloud. That risk has gone now and that’s a relief.

There’s no way we sign Hardaker if we are competing again. But at the minute it’s ‘beggars can’t be chooses…’

He’s certainly engineered this to is advantage. Not sure why you didn’t just release him in the off season even he was clearly wanting out?
