I often stood up for Hock on rlfans when it came to internationals as I saw great potential for him, I thought he was a great player when he played to his strengths.

Not anymore though.

When Hock is officially found guilty, do you think they will test the whole of the Wigan team. I don't think hes the only one on drugs :wink:

I hope that we retain his cards but de register him until his ban is completed (IF he does get banned) I wouldhate to see hock play for anyother team.

Hock is a great palyer and im sure that this incident will make him look at what hes done and respond in a positive way. Im convinced if the club stand behind him he will pay them back on the field in 2 years time.

Looking to the near future i am hoping that we see mossop return to wigan as he has been playing very well.

wasn't as potent as as ashton ask martin offiah how many tried he set up for him.


When Connolly was a young lad he was

a) At Saints

and

b) a Fullback

Connolly was never as explosive as Ashton but he was always solid in defence. By the time he moved to Wigan he was already an International , he developed his centre play (and overall game) of course from being in a full time environment and being surrounded by better players.

What a complete d*ckhead. I know it was posted on here last night, but I didn't think it was true until it was on Sky Sports News!

I'm so annoyed that he's chucked everything away! He could have been the best second rower in the league, possibly already was. He was definately one of our best players. How can a so called proud Wigan lad do this to his hometown club?

Idiot.


Even without a brain Hock was the best second rower in superleague. If he had a brain he could have been an alltime great and he wouldn't have thrown it all away like this!

Something like this has been on the cards for years i'm afraid.

I'll be shocked if he isnt sacked (assuming of course the B sample comes back positive and the RL hand out the standard 2 year ban)

Fancy getting caught. :lol:

Most players in this league will no doubt use recreational drugs like Hock, its everywhere nowadays. It's just to bad stars like Hock have now gone and wasted their talent and career on drugs.

Its a shame for Rugby League, and especially England RL, because Hock could have been a star :(

Ahh well its his own fault. idiot.


I'm pretty sure thats not the case, would you care to support suce a sweeping generalisation with some evidence?
