Do we really want to sign a player like Hardaker with his off field well documented activities.
Its the reason we and Cas got rid and now appears the same could be happening at Wigan.
He obviously cannot mature and if not by now will he ever.
Do we seriously want to chance him having a bad influence on the younger players and not a role model which we need for them.
If GH goes ahead he has lost the plot and needs to resign.

Sign him - no

Take him on loan, yes, we can't even name a 21 man squad at the moment.

Isn't the reasoning he wants out of the Pies is because he has a bairn and wants to be closer to his family and friends?

Still does not stop him being a bad influence, signed or on loan.

According to the Wigan forum its rumoured he did a Gale and slagged off the coach in public and why he was dropped.

Hardaker on a month's loan might make sense. As a permanent signing? Utterly bonkers given the way he treated the team in 2016, spending the whole time angling for an NRL gig and playing without caring, and then dissing Leeds once he was away. If there was evidence he's grown up then maybe, but if he's done a Gale at Wigan then he clearly hasn't changed.

Wonder how those Pies fans feel now, given when he signed for them after his ban they claimed that somehow the mighty Wigan would sort him out, and he was only being a tool because mean Leeds and nasty Cas didn't treat him right.....

Did you make that up all by yourself?

Utter crap. Nobody ever said anything of the sort. What a strange thing to make up.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Thu Apr 21, 2022 9:49 am  

I'd take him back without a doubt as long as there's a clear financial get out for the club if he misbehaves.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Thu Apr 21, 2022 11:05 am  

Permanent signing - 100% NO.

Loan to the end of the season - definitely, we are desperate and need anything that could help keep us up.

I think there was some inference that Leeds and Cas hadn`t cared for him as they should and that Wigan have spent a lot of time supporting him.
That came from maybe one or two posters on your board.
The reality is all 3 clubs tried their best to support him and I know for certain he was given more chances at Leeds than some other let`s say not as talented as Hardaker in the past.

Taking him out of his environment may have helped him. Yes i was one of those saying that too but not 1 of our posters ever blamed Leeds or Cas as the poster suggested. Hopefully he leaves. Im not a fan. Season long loan to Leeds then off to Wakey or Fev next season would be my guess.
