An article in one of the Rugby League papers, (I believe it is the League Weekly), is stating that Wigan have signed, or are about to sign, Zak Hardaker. Has April the first come early? Surely nobody at the club is seriously thinking about this???

I’ve heard the same, a five year deal no less!!

Castleford are supposedly standing by & supporting Hardaker while he serves his ban, which I have still not heard what it was!

Why would they do that if he is going to another club??

He may be a good player, but he has a lot of baggage!

Great player by SL standards and I believe he has played centre an area where we are poor in I feel.

2 issues.

1. Drugs ban
2. His behaviour.

Interesting how this pans out.

IFL asked a recent supporters meeting if they would sign Zac, the overwhelming answer was no.

Isn't his ban 2 years? So this would be for the 2020 season. Who knows who would be in our team that year.

If there's anything in this rumour then the club must have done or be doing a lot of fact finding as to his poor off field behavior and the reasons behind it.
The rumour of a 5 year deal is staggering after his troubled times and bans.
Excellent player, maybe he has to move locality to have any chance of overcoming his problems.

Can't see this one happening then again I've said that before Ha. Surely 5 year deal has to be a load of crap though! He's what 26? A 2yr ban (apparently) would keep him at the club until he was 32/33 why would you give such a long contact to a well know idiot
