Looks like I've hit a nerve - and yes I'm obviously more in the know than you and its not even my club.

Have you been around other clubs checking out the marital and religious status of their players?

Why are you mentioning Bailey and Diskin?

so people who work in the community for the club are worthless? thats just wrong! all clubs have people who go to schools etc and teach kids about drugs in sport etc. who would be better than their fallen hero? there are lots of jobs in a SL club that dont involve rugby.

Why should he get one of these jobs? That devalues the jobs. Why should somebody who his banned for taking coke (providing he is guity) be sent into the schools?

Is public speaking one of his skills? Is working with kids? Would parents be happy with a drug taker being sent into schools with their kids?

I wasn't the one devaluing community work, you were by suggesting that Hock should be given a job just because he was stupid enough to get caught taking drugs (providing the B Test is positive).

After 2 years somebody coming back and speaking to kids explaining the impact it had on their lives may be a good thing, but tbh if he is kept employed by Wigan, well that doesn;t look too bad to the kids does it!!!

If your a bit part squad player you'll get binned abit like Reardon did at Wire but if your a frontline player you'll more then likely get kept on.

That doesn't mean we continue to pay his wages but keep his registration and offer him some form of promise of a deal for when he's back aslong as he sticks by the rules we set for him.

Your first point isn;t that accurate. Reardon was our first choice fullback, who got injured so missed much of last year. He retained the number 1 shirt for this year, and would have been a key part of the squad without injuries and off field issues.

Agree with your 2nd point, and that may be the way to get him to focus and sort himself out for the next couple of years.

Although it's wrong to take drugs and I'm a Leyther, I can't help but feel sorry for Hock, he cleary can't do anything else other than play rugby. There is no way he will be able to get a job, the guy can't string a sentance together but only time will tell what the results are and how Wigan react to the results.

There's no doubting his ability, but at the height of his career when we're seeing him become a fine, fine player he's only got himself (and no doubt his circle of friends) to blame for his errors.
