It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

As long as the money is reinvested in the team, it's no big deal. He was never gong to play fo Leeds the same way he has been doing for Cas because we don't ask our fullback to play that way. Good luck to him, it was time to move on, I'm looking forward to who we spend the money on...

You only get so many lives I'm afraid and he used his up and a fresh start is what he needed regardless of the coaches ability. Still early days to see if he can keep himself out of trouble, even Cas couldn't help Chase.


Bob on. Burnt bridges. I'm still a fan of ZH and really hope he can move on and be successful.

From an England perspective Hardaker at his best is the best option we have at full back.

No hard feelings really, the guy clearly has some mental issues and I guess the Leeds coaching staff were no longer willing to deal with his off field behaviour, but good luck to him.

Does solidify the need to look at our future fullback options, Golding has made excellent strides in his defensive games but he doesnt offer enough in attack for me, and with the way we have used fullbacks for the past 5 years he is too small to make the tackle breaks that Hardaker made.
Im not saying we need to buy a fullback btw, but I do think we would get a lot more joy in attack with either Sutcliffe or even Moon at fullback (both I think are wasted at centre).

What you looking at?....Butt Head!!

Good luck to him, good deal all round i think.as others have said, he aint playing for Leeds again and he looks happy at Cas.

I can see him giving the NRL another shot in a couple years.

From what I remember of Zak in his early days at Fev his attacking skills were pretty good.
He worked on his defensive skills at Leeds and played to the game plan of the coach.
Golding is mirroring Zak in as much as his attacking game was spot on until he got the full back berth and was told to work on his defence.
Golding in Castleford`s team would look brilliant IMO.
Good luck to Zak I hope he can stay out of trouble and continue his good form.
I tipped him for MOS this year but I would think that will go to Luke Gale.

Leeds players rarely get a look in when they win trophies, what makes you think that will change now.
