He's fine. Had over 9 RDT in the last 13 weeks and aced them all. He's well aware of the doubts everyone has and is very much looking forward to kicking off the season next year. He is 30/40% off the pace and knows he has his work cut out to get match fit for next year, that is the only worry we should really have as Wigan fans.

Did you seriously believe that?

There is just no helping the lad but he seems to pull the wool over some eyes and get chance after chance. No doubt if you sack him there will be a que of SL clubs willing to give him his "Last chance".

Everytime he messed up at Leeds we always had someone on the Leeds board claiming to know how the meetings went between Hardaker and the club and EVERYTIME it was the clubs fault for handling things badly and they were overly harsh to him.

Exact same when he left Cas and you could read comments from someone who knew him placing the blame on how Cas handled things.

If Wigan get rid almost certain you’ll hear how Wigan were harsh and unfair on him and there was more to things than what you read in the news.

He might sound all apologetic and say the right things in his public apologies but clear he paints a different, harshly treated picture to those close to him who buy it and sell it.

Away games only, presumably? Not a cat in hell's chance the Canadian Border Control are letting him in.

Not sure you can terminate contracts on an alleged DD charge, as serious as drink driving is, it’s not uncommon unfortunately. He seems a liability, who probably needs professional help.

Surely Wigan wouldn’t be so stupid as to sign Zac without a clause in his contract relating to his conduct.
He was known to have issues with alcohol so surely they would have made it clear their expectations.

He now deserves to be left out to dry. He’s clearly not willing to change. When a great kid like Macauley Davies has to give up the game whilst this muppet shows he really doesn’t give a toss he doesn’t deserve to be given Another chance.

Didn't realise that. So we presumably have a marquee spot free anyway then with Tomkins leaving, and cap allowance to make use of the nominal value of a marquee player if we ditch Hardaker

A common misconception. No one on any RL team has been denied a visa so far. It just takes longer. Toronto is a very good bet I'd say.

Todd Carney was rejected a Visa for the UK though, can see it potentially happening. I know the wrestler Jeff Hardy can't appear in Canada because he's had convictions for a few things including drink driving.

Dont think you could cover every clause in a contract, which would protect you from Zaks misdemeanours, Zaksit or remain an interesting decision for the Wigan management.
