www.totalrl.com/zak-hardaker-axe ... lub-rules/ Zak Hardaker has been left out of Castleford’s squad for the Grand Final following a breach of club rules. Jy Hitchcox has been drafted into the squad to take his place, with Oliver Holmes also returning to replace Andy Lynch. A bitter blow? Or a tightening of the unit? Would have been easy to let this one slide until after weekend. Oh Zak....

All we know is "a breach of club rules". So let's be careful to keep any potentially libellous speculation of these boards.

ta

And having said that – "fecking idiot!"

I may be a Leeds fan, but I'm sorry to hear he doesn't appear to have outgrown the issues that plagued his time with us.

I'm a Leeds fan , but this is sickening news I wanted a great talent like him to be on show to promote our game . it must be serious and fair play to the club and coach

Feel sorry for the Cas fans. The immature idiot has not learned any life lessons after being given a fresh start from his new club. Brave call by the club, as he (along with Luke Gale) were the biggest dangers in their team. Outstanding player, will probably never change.

I'm the words of Monty python. He's not the messaih. He's just a very naughty boy.

Not just let Cas down, but England too. Can't see Bennett selecting him now.

This, sorry to hear what as happened but my concern was for England,if this jeopardise’s his place,well rat boy at Wigan will be happy right now.

I can't believe what I am reading. How many of us would give just about anything to be in his shoes this week and he does whatever he has done.

Can anyone think of another player who is as thick, stupid or whatever as he appears to be?
You have to feel sorry for someone who has the gift that he has and wastes it. It makes you weep just thinking about how some people throw away what I and thousands would love to experience just once in our lives. Poor lad!

I'm a Wigan fan, and I'm sad about this news. I wanted Hardaker playing for England, he's been great this year.
That and I can't be bothered with everyone whining if Tomkins does play

Yes, Cas got rid of one.
