He's better off not coming now, he's right at the top of the 2020 scapegoat list and nothing's going to change that now.
I just hope he has actually put pen to paper and we can get a fee for him.

I believe Hastings will be a Wigan player next season. As someone who lives in Oz I can say I understand Hastings not saying anything about the situation. When I come home to Wigan I don’t give work a thought and enjoy family time. I expect Hastings is doing the same down in Sydney/Wollongong.

I get what you’re saying but the guy is a pretty big user of social media and in a situation like this where his intentions are being questioned, you’d think he’d find 30 seconds to simply comment that he’ll be a Wigan player in 2020. He’s found the time to post pictures of all sorts of randomness over these past few weeks and whilst it’s all been personal stuff to him and none really rugby related, I’d personally want to ensure I wasn’t getting off on the wrong foot with my new club and it’s supporters before my times began ‘If’ I intended on heading to that club in just a couple of weeks time.


The silence is telling a story at the minute unfortunately. If it drags on for another couple of weeks and he does come, you still can’t help but feel there will be question marks over his commitment.

Today, now.

Salford 31........

Doesn’t look good does it?

Spoke to a former Wigan player who knows Jackson very well. According to the former player Jackson doesn't want to come to Wigan. Jackson is currently doing what he can to get out of the deal.

For me all bets are off. He's not coming.

And the former player... I'm not saying who... but put two and two together and you'll figure it out.

This is all very expected nowadays with Wigan. Absolute fecking shambles.

South Stand song for next year

"We've not got, Jackson Hastings, we've not got, Jackson Hastings"

Can't sign a manager without him fewking us off, sign a marquee player, he doesn't fancy it. Just awesome.

Let him pay £250k out of his own savings to release himself from his contract. Let's see how serious he wants away then.

Expected a marquee, ended up with a gazebo.

I don't care what we do now, just don't bend over and let him go on a free.

Someone must pay, it shouldn't be us.

While I know the issues around the Edwards fiasco and how the club were at fault for the deal breaking down, I can't see how the club could be at fault for Hastings reneging on a contract (if the rumours are true).

Given what happened with Edwards the club will have no choice but to be extremely firm with the fallout and if I was them I wouldn't rest until all he could afford on that plot of land in Australia was a cardboard box. What's the going transfer fee rate for a Man of Steel equivalent halfback? There's the breach of contract compensation fee.

Has Salford got a marquee signing?

Have Salford got £500k to pay the transfer fee?

Not sure about the details. Unrelated (I didn't hear this from the former Wigan player) there's talk that it's over how annoyed Hastings was about Wigan announcing the signing before the end of the season which, according to Hastings' people... breaches the contract.
