Quote: NickyKiss "All I know with Hastings is we're well rid. I'm not sure I can recall a player who has left Wigan being that unpopular, right from the fans, through to the players and coaches from what you hear. Even one of the other problem children we had at the time in Hardaker seems loved by the players, even if the fans aren't keen. Loads of his old Wigan teammates made a bee line for him at the end of the recent Leigh game and he seems to be genuinely a popular guy.'"
In fairness Hardaker until what 6 months before his contract ran out barely put a foot wrong did he, quite why he couldn't sit on his contract, say nowt and leave wigan with the fans best wishes ringing in his ears was one of life's great mysteries to me.
As for Hastings hes an odd one for sure, loves the big fish,small pond it seems to me and woe betide anyone getting in his way, not good in a team sport
