Things seem pretty good team spirit wise, why disrupt that.

I'd guess at someone that owns a Barge......

Anyone got a link?

There isn't one. It's just some dick Cas fan winding gullible Wakey fans on other SM platforms.

Hope it is Wollo.

Good player on his day, but at 33, how many more chances does this lad need.

It would be a no from me

Based on Hardaker being a fading talent who has caused trouble at every club he’s ever played for and quite often gets into the mire off the field.

I would rather pay him money to stay away than have him at the club right now, when things are looking up

Exactly. Hes a great player but right now we don't need him to get out of this league and he'll be a year old when we are back in Super League.....and may have destroyed the team spirit being built.
Whereas Pratt will have another year under his belt and will be nearer his potential.
And will have helped build the team.

And we can buy a younger player of Hardakers level by then too.

This is probably where I sit too.

In the short term he absolutely improves us but we don’t need to look short term at the moment.

If we was available, and as I understand it he might be due to having issues commuting to Leigh, I’d think Fev or Cas is a more likely destination, easier to get there on the bus too.

I’m not convinced on Pratt long term but he clearly has potential and needs to be given a season to develop further, which he will only get from playing games.

Thornley is good for this year and we have time to recruit ahead of any SL return.

It comes down to risk and reward and whilst I do think he would improve us the risk is too great and shortsighted.

For me Pratt is about as talented a player as I've seen come out of our academy in recent years, I can see only his physical size holding him back.

His size is my main concern.

He’s clearly very skilful and bags of potential it’s just how he adapts to SL level and makes the most of what he does have and how we use him.
