So you've just made it up then?

I’ve gone off past players who have come over from the NRL after struggling for game time and then use the SL as a platform to show what they can do before being signed back to the NRL based on SL form. I’m not having a dig at him, far from it.
You can stop being condescending now

He wasn't wanted in the NRL for his off field stuff. If he shows he has cleaned that up he'll be back in 2 years. Similar to Jamie Lyon really although not in the same league quality wise.

| Video on twitter of him doing an interview about returning to the NRL. Essentially confirms he’s actively looking to head back there, can’t blame him. If the season is called off we won’t see him in a Wigan shirt again I suspect

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| Bevan French is also back in Aus. I don't blame anyone who has their family out there for returning home in these difficult times.

Except that he wasn't quite as keen to talk about going elsewhere when he was at Salford.
Thanks to several top notch performances, I'd just about forgiven his close-season antics ... and then the Salford game came along and he was mooning about the pitch like a lovesick bull calf. Excuse-makers drew fond comparisons with Denis Law, but Law was at United for over ten years and Hastings at Salford for less than two.
Now we've got this.
I know that players are professionals and need to look after themselves, but when they pick and choose their loyalty as selectively as Hastings seems to, it's as good as a V-sign to the fans.
He's a good player but it's very difficult actually liking the guy.

The same guy who at every home game has still been taking pictures 20 to 25 minutes after the final whistle? The same guy who gave away his two seats to the Huddersfield away game to Wigan fans? The same guy who gave a young Wigan fan the chance to walk out with him at a game and then gave them his shirt?

We can only react to what we see, bud.
At present, he's openly courting clubs in the NRL.
I wouldn't blame him for that if he knows something we don't about the 2020 season already being over. But at present, it's adding insult to injury.

He’s extremely likeable IMO. He is generous and down to earth. In this current climate and given he hasn’t ever hidden his desire to go back to the NRL; can you really blame him for looking for a way back? I’d want to be closer to my family as well to be totally honest.
I get what you’re saying but I don’t agree with you one iota

Fair enough.
But still no explanations are being offered for why he wouldn't talk to the Wigan press when he was at Salford, but will talk to the NRL press now he's at Wigan.
Seems odd to me. And doesn't bode well.

I've mentioned it already.
Look ... let's leave it, eh?
We obviously disagree on this, but it's hardly worth arguing about.
