Been sacked apparently. Hope we sign him up Today!
Bit daft by Wigan as think we’d have paid a fee….
Still international standard player.

He's an international standard something else as well.

dont care how good he is he is a liability, an absolute house.

He's also already shafted Leeds once before. A short-term signing maybe, but nothing longer.

Would have to be on a pay as you play deal. Like a rolling contract. Game by game type deal just to try and assist us get some wins on the board and then see ya later alligator

Personally i wouldnt want him anywhere near the club. We gave him far too many chances last time and he threw them all back in our faces. Hes not the player now he was then either.

The very fact Wigan are supposedly sacking him today tells you he hasnt changed and never will. Lets not forget Wigan didnt sack a player for glassing another player but they are obviously at the end of their with this unprofessional moron.

Were desperate but its still a no from me.

I’m reluctant for us to sign Hardaker as he’s a complete idiot, but he probably can do a job on the field for us, so if we can pick him up very cheap on a low wage to the end of the season from a playing perspective it probably makes sense.

Agree 100 per cent.
He's half the player he was when he left us.
GH is just being a hypocrite if he signs him, after getting rid for his indiscretions,but now willing to possibly take him on just because we have injuries.
And what a great role model for all the youngsters currently in the first team and those coming through the system.

I agree Bang.
Rolling week by week, pay as you play contract.
Dangle the carrot and get shut at the end of the season, where he'll probably end up at Fev.
He's nowhere near international standard anymore, but he's probably better than our current 3/4 options.

I'd rather we got a big prop on loan than a back. If Newman, Walker/Myler and Fusitu'a are back plus fit halfbacks we'll have an almost completely different (and better quality) backline. Even when everyone's fit we're short of a big bopper.

We dont want him here and remember just look back through Leeds history .the club have never tolerated any corm of of misconduct Even the great Jeff Moores in the 1930s charged Dental treatment to the club he was sold immediately. The great Jeff Stevenson he had issues and sold to York . Zak is talented, but now 30 years old and running out of time .we dont want him here

Quite right. City centre brawls with players ending up in young offender's institutions is for other clubs.

Has Fev written all over it

He's primarily a full back who can also defend ok at centre. Key positions, and ones where you need talented players you can depend upon in the long term. He might just about tick one of those two boxes.

Pay as you play, and as you keep your nose clean, on a short leash and with the carrot of the World Cup will likely make him an option for someone. I would imagine clubs would also be keen to find out how serious his disciplinary issues are this time.

I don’t know if we’ll be in for him, but I can understand why people might think with our current issues and injuries to positions he can play people would think we might be.

But I’d also imagine Featherstone might be keen.

Will send out a shocking message to the young lads in the squad if he's brought back in any capacity.

Personally i'd have him back on a short term deal until end of season if his attittude is right, he has been wanting to come back and be released form wigan for some time, we also don't know the full story here. We could go bottom of the league tonight...

I'd have him on a play/pay short term condition.
Not a patch on the player that left us but we could use him right now. He can fill a number of positions and although he can be a , when he's engaged he is useful. Use him and get rid when we have had enough, we dont owe him anything

He’d improve our team. Made mistakes in his life but is a quality player . We can’t play moral high ground as we’ve signed players with a history of violence towards women. Zak never done anything that bad…..!

Perhaps JJB thinks he can guide Zak on the path to redemption?

Wouldn't have him back at any price , I think that is his World cup chance gone too, Wane said he will be ' keeping an eye' on players attitudes etc, think that's why Jake Connor never gets a look in. I despair what Hardaker will do when his career finishes and he needs a proper job in the real world

It's a no for me.
Once bitten and all that....

Culture is really important in building a positive ethic in a club/company. If Zac waltzes back into Leeds what does it say? Especially to the young players.

There has to be more to this than simply missing a debrief!!

Most likely end up at Tolouse - if he has been vaccinated.

If Zak go’s to Toulouse they finish above us. They’ve already signed Corey Norman who’s quality. We’d be relying on Wakey/Salford not winning another-game now…..

Yes I know all about that and of course Hardaker was let off twice and maybe what we dont know about, but I'm going back to when Leeds as a club were very strict on club discipline when the game was only part time
