It was nice for Zak to come back to Leeds and mend some bridges in the process, and yes I am disappointed that we've not been able to retain him, especially after the Walker announcement. At the same time he's no spring chicken, and if we're able to bring in someone different who complements the team in the right way that's fine with me. Hardaker was at his best in the years immediately before his big ban in 2017; while he's still a very good player it is not worth getting upset about.

He'll be a free agent when Leigh get relegated at the end of next season so you never know, there may be a chance for another swansong yet

Confirmed as a Leigh LEOPARDS signing. If you want a good laugh check out twitter and the reaction to Leighs new branding, which is so amateurish im sure its a wind up

Jesus Christ. What the hell is that? It's like their entire strategy is aimed at reinforcing the impression of being a tinpot club.

Where have they announced this bit?
It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

If we don’t have a quality centre lined up after losing Hardaker and Sutcliffe, particularly taking into account question marks over Newman’s ability to last a season with out any long layoffs, I’d go as far as to say our recruitment and cap management is disastrous.
