meast Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I can't help but thinking something not very good is going to happen to Leigh. I try not to be negative but there's something about the whole thing that seems too good to be true.

WN83 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 The decision by Hardaker just makes it clearer in my mind that Wigan are well shut. He needed to leave Wigan and move to Yorkshire to save his marriage and mental health, which was his excuse for causing problems at Wigan and here we are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUBRATS Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Heard the rumour about Zac , wasn't too happy about it as everybody knows he's a tool , was hoping it would be OBrien instead , so in the end it's both , which is great from a playing point of view as long as Lam can keep Zac under control and focussed on the game Should be interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he does only have another 2/3 years to earn at RL until he has to get a proper job , maybe the penny has dropped ? , Let's hope so , myself and others were highly critical when we gave Gareth Hock a final chance a few years back , Gareth to his credit knuckled down and did well for us , hopefully Zac will do the same ( trying to find a fingers crossed emoji ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whippet13 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Already publically commenting about the contract Leeds offered him, as usual with Zak he has been hard done to: https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/zak-hardaker-leeds-rhinos-offer-25317499 This is one Leopard who is not going to change his spots.

In fairness the home situation may have changed by now. Mental Health issues are very debilitating so I hope he is successful at Leigh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
