I know you’re joking, but I’ve said from day one (as in when his suspension was announced) that I don’t want him back.
Sounds like the best place for him is Wigan. Willing to pay for expensive rehabilitation and hopefully he’ll be away from the bad influences in his life.
Player welfare (and indeed humanity) comes above club rivalry. I hope it works out for him.

| Boo.
Should never have been signed in the first place.
Disaster waiting to happen (again).

| I'm happy with this mainly because I want to see some exciting players on the pitch. If the club are happy to deal with him, I'm happy to pay to watch good players.

| With the long lay off, booze ands drugs not exactly the best diet for a sportsman, lets hope he's not lost it due to the abuse of his body.

I never wanted to sign him in the first place and only see it going one way however, I respect IL and if he deems it a worthwhile last throw of the dice then hopefully the guy and the club can both win. The cynic in me however, thinks that he just has no self awareness and he hasn't go the fraction of the will power that you have and his next incident is not too far away.

Sadly I agree 100% - I do not care one iota how good a player he was/could be, signing and keeping are decisions I fear the club will regret in time.

| I don't know that I'm 'chuffed'. Yes, you can argue that the Club has done the *right* thing, but I think I'd have been happier if they'd announced they were throwing him out on his ear!

Yeah maybe wrong choice of words. Shows the club for what it is though and that sort of interest in a not only a player but a man could be priceless to future targets or signings about the morals the club has. Also get to see him in a good side and hopefully clean rather than ending up at Toronto or somewhere like that where he will be allowed to run riot. Looking forward to hopefully seeing him in action next year, I know it will be a season of transition but I don't see a reason why you won't be challenging should you get a new half and at least a new prop and back rower

| The club has made its decision and we must stand by it. Personally I do think he needs help with his alcohol intake, that may well mean he goes T-total. Either way this must be his last chance, he either sorts himself out or he will find himself out of a job and in jail. It’s almost inevitable if he continues on the path he is or was on.
I think it’s time we got behind the club and Zak and support him. After all on an off day he is still outstanding and I think he’ll become pivotal to us next season and beyond.

| Absolutely gutted with this decision. We got rid of Joel Tomkins didn’t we? Double standards here.
We should be getting rid of him. It’s making a mockery saying he was on the last chance saloon when we signed him, then giving him another chance after that.
This will only go one way.

I was just going to post the same thing. JT was rightly shown the door but "all" he did was do what he did in the bar. Hardaker has in the past, admitted assaulting a student, was given a five match ban for homophobic comments, got banned for drugs and now has been done for drink driving (and he tried to run away from the police!) and the club decides it's got a duty of care to stick by him who has not even played a game for the club and not JT? Pull the other one.
