I'd prefer to see him at Wigan for one more season at least.
I would go with that Mike, I think we need to appoint you to the Board of Directors.

How on earth is the start of the season the best time for our no 1 scrum half to leave?

Lam won’t be able to build a team because there are no replacements available. Everyone is signed up.

This completely disrupts the team planning just before the season kicks off. If he’d gone at the end of last season the club could have planned for it. Now they will be looking around for a replacement when no one decent is available or trying to run with what we have got which makes the team weaker. There is no way TL can play a full season and he’s nowhere near the standard of player anyway, the same as any other potential candidates currently at the club.

Hopefully doesnt distract prep for friday. Cant see anythink will come of this, but if it does hopefully a transfer fee/salary is used and put back into the squad.
I have no idea why we didn't do a swap deal with Canberra Sezer for Williams originally would have made more sense.

At least we would have had abit of stability for 2/3 seasons because he actually wanted to play in the super league

They all want to play in SL, until they get a better offer. We would be better off recruiting South Sea Islanders.

I am absolutely amazed at this thread.
A ball has not been kicked yet this season and Hastings is getting slated on here because of press rumours.
The lad was excellent for us last season, gave his all every game. Wether he is popular or not is irrelevant as long as he performs. If he “ does the dirty “ and buggers off in the next couple of weeks then I could understand some of the stick, but for God’s sake until something happens give him a bloody break.
It’s usually a couple of games into the season before players start getting viified, so even for this site it’s starting early.
(Rant over) !!!!
