For me Hock's problem is his fitness, he is nowhere near what he was and this will take time, he was frustrated, they were getting hammered blah blah. I think the ban is just right, he misses the GF if they get there, he will miss out on England selection, surely this is enough. I am not saying gouging is right I am just saying why I think Hock did what he did and I think the punishment is spot on. Do we want blood? don't answer that

I guess it depends on how he's been training. He has certainly bulked up but maybe too much.

I think he should have been match fit by now or at least nearly match fit. He's massively of the pace and that's why he wasn't picked for the final.
