Wigan are big enough to fill it we are not

Don`t know if I`m the only one, for me he is now massively overrated. At one time a big club would accept the risk of disruption because he was such a talent, I just don`t think he`s at that level now. Leeds are desperate and will snap him up though.

Remember when Wigan signed ZH and Lenagan was taking shots at Leeds and Cas`s mismanagement of him?

why we had the likes of Leo-latu, Smith, Locke, Moore, Newton, Owen, Kirmond, and Annakin just a quick list of a few that all had off field issues with but were still here aren't we could look for a mother Teresa but I doubt we get one

Leopards and spots.

On his day, a very good player no question but, is it worth the pain.

He’s been wanting away for a while, if what they are saying on forum is true seems like he was probably wanting to precipitate an agree to release.

Suspect he’s already lined up his next move or he wouldn’t be walking away from his contract.

Only obvious contenders are cas and Leeds - given that castleford first choice centre is 34 and injured wouldn’t surprise me if he made a “shock “ resigning for them.

Baring in mind his previous burnt bridges, back to Fev seems a good option.

Flawed genius on his day, Radlinski moved heaven and earth to get him a gig after his well documented off field shenanigans, must feel really let down . Think he’s had enough chances to redeem himself and can’t seem to shake those inner demons that have plagued his career . Good on Wigan and Matt Peet , sometimes you’ve just got to cut loose ,no matter how good they are and give someone else the chance of a lifetime.

I can't see Cas having him back after what he did, but you never know stranger things have happened in RL.

I'm happy with Jowitt, Hall and Lyne to be honest I don't think any of them should be dropped for ZH.

Great shout.


Till you remember who their coach is.

With a Super League place at stake I think he might put up with Zac for one year.

Hardaker could play 1 to 5 and, barring Johnstone, he’d be better than what we already have. No doubt at all that he’d improve us on the field. But you can also guarantee there’ll be problems with him at some point as well. If we thought we could get him through to September without any issues he might be worth a short term gamble.

Do you think he's a better centre than Hall, I don't. Hall is on his way up Hardaker is well on his way down. Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Ditto Max.

You're not getting the Hardaker of a few years ago, if you were Wigan would let him be late.

At this moment in time, yes, I think he’s better than both. I think we’ve unearthed a gem in Hall and he’s going to be a top player in the future, but he’s not in Hardaker’s league just yet. And should Tupou return to full fitness he’ll move ahead of Hall as well. A back line of Max, Johnstone, Hardaker, Lyne and Tupou would be as good as any in the bottom half of SL. His ability isn’t in question, it’s his off field antics that are the concern.

Couldn't give a monkeys tbh, he won't be coming to Wakefield that's for sure.

Yet you'd stall the development of two young players for an old one who probably won't make a jot of difference.

I'm as peed off as anyone with the last few weeks but I hope we are a bit more strategic than that.

I don't deny he's an experienced and talented player but his career is heading in only one direction.

Sign him by all means if we can afford him but for me, his only position to start with is on the wing to allow Kay to move back to 9 and then see how it goes.
