You're probably right. I think he had complications with his shins that kept him out longer than expected. I remember a lot of people complaining that it was due to all the hill-running they were doing at the time, under the then conditioner, whose name escapes me.

Nigel Ashley-Jones?

That must have been Nigel Ashley-Jones......................everyone hated that bloke for some reason!

I suppose it shows how desperate we all actually were when the fitness conditioner was getting blamed for our likely relegation

Having been suspended by the RFL though - he is technically not a RL player and so shouldn't count on the cap.

Assuming Hock's found guilty and we sack him, the good news is that only a set of Wigan hating muppets would rule that he should still count on the CC.

The bad news is that the RFL will be taking that decision....

I expect another "Spirit of the Cap" breach is coming...

Ok we know hes done wrong and we all have our own opinions but I cant understand the fact that yes he has allegedly taken coke but surely where is his common sense in all this. Surely he knew the consequences if he did get caught so why take the drug when he knew he would be playing.......It takes about 3/4 days to get out of the system

He doesnt come across as the sharpest knife the the draw..

If he gets a 2 year ban for me wont be enough.

Cheats or drug takes need to be banned from sports for life not 2 years.

Didnt he end up involved in the coaching somehow until Noble got shut of him?
