Going against the grain here. think Hardaker could be an astute bit of business as long as its not top heavy in terms of cost. Experienced never backs down on the field cant question his skill set, Always one of the first to congratulate and put his arms around the younger players when they've made a mistake. Just my opinion

It's a low bar. But yes, in playing terms.

Plenty of heels too.

A certain aussie import could be on the way to Odsal if rumours are to be believed

You lot would have absolutely loved it if Rovers had signed Hardaker, you'd have been slagging us off big time, for his off field antics (several of them) and for the fact that he's blocking the development of young kids, but some of you are actually trying to convince yourselves that it's a good signing, I thought I was the 1st of April when I saw it in Hull live

Thanks for your concern Bishop. Now jog on and get your socks ready to fill tonight

I don't even mind which one at this point!

Are we even sure Hardaker will be our star centre signing? We’ve still 2 quota spots available plus another 2 likely with Sao and Okunbor to go. I imagine a 7 and 9 will be used with them. Then a back rower and possibly centre with the other 2.

Whilst Hardaker is a nob off the pitch, he would still be our best centre as it stands, plays most weeks too.

Can't say I'm best pleased about the Hardaker signing. He's well past his peak as a player, plus you can't ignore the baggage that comes with him.

Is he better than what we have currently? Unfortunately yes.

You could argue that Hardaker is still a good defensive centre. It'll be interesting to see how he goes up against Salford tomorrow. They've got to attacking centres bang in form.

Good signing. A top player.

we need a good centre, he's a good centre. With the added bonus of being a good full back if needed.

Whether at Leigh, Castleford or Leeds. He helped make those teams a success when he was there.

Guy has more baggage than Heathrow Airport, he's had more chances than I can think of, this has drained any positivity built up over the last few weeks, he's a decent player but it doesn't counteract the fact he's a absolute whopper.
