Has Hock actually been found guilty yet?

Seems like he's already been hung out to dry by so called supporters.

No. He faces a serious charge but innocent until proven guilty should apply.

If he's cleared by the hearing then he should be considered innocent and will have my full backing.

If he is found guilty then he should be sacked and never play for Wigan again. Simple really!

It's incredibly rare a sample B test comes back negative after a sample A test positive.

Stay away from libel please. Mods

Could be a first, could be innocent or downright stupid. But the lad deserves a fair hearing and not the slagging off that he's getting.

And nor should there be.

Brown hasn't sold him down the river, he's confirmed what everybody knows already.

If Hocks 'b' sample comes back negative i'm a chinamon!

I agree he does deserve a fair hearing - and IF found guilty dealt with appropiately.

Some comments may be unfair but after the season we've had, what do you expect? Seem's to be one thing after another and I think the fan's are at breaking point.

After all, we've stood by not just Hock but Wigan RL - we've been mocked and downright embarassed for it but we've carried on. It seems to me that there is no justice for us long suffering fans. We don't get what we deserve for our loyalties - and it's starting to really aggravate people now.

Don't talk wet. Hock has held his hand up anyway - he may be dense but he knows he's been caught red handed. Brown is speaking out of concern.

Hock hasnt made a statement as far as im aware.

I thought the club website said no further comment will be made until after next weeks sample.

Maybe my first statement wasnt right, what i was meant to say was this confirms guilt.
