A silly mistake from Hock as he's a professional sportsman and in the public eye. Don't see the need for the press to sensationalise it though.
Agree with others on here that this is far from an isolated case, I think there will be significant amounts of RL players who frequently dabble with cocaine, why wouldn't there be when it's rife in society?
Don't see the huge problem with it personally, I know a lot of very respectable, hard working people who use the drug on a weekend going out to enhance the pleasure of their evening. If it's addictive, so what? It's like any addiction, it's how you control it that's important.
Never done cocaine myself, but smoked dope for ten years plus (stopped when my little girl was born) and one thing I can say about all those years is it never ever once made me feel aggressive towards anyone, like alcohol does to so many people week in week out all over the country.
Funny how so many people who are so against anyone who ever touches any drug in any way, shape or form, will celebrate alcohol and people who drink it as though there's nothing wrong with it.
