It's sad isn't it.

Even taking the glory(well even at Wigan he gets abit) away and the fact that it's such a dream job you've got the fact that a lad like Hock who's thick as a barndoor is earning something in the region of 120-150k a year which is an unbelievable wage for anybody.

He should feel honoured and privaliged that he's got such an amazing career that people would do for free but the guys that thick he doesn't realise it and has thrown it all away!

Get him in that dragon boa, he will make it zoom along.

I doub't think many would disagree with that. Of course people are going to make jokes about it and have a laugh but most would agree that is is bad for the game on the whole and the players who take the risk are stupid for not only risking their own careers but also for risking bad press for the game.

It was a genuine question. People are claiming it's rife but only the odd one gets caught. The two things don't go together to me. Are the tests fiddled? If so then why werent they fiddled for Hock?
No, either loads of players are not into it, or something is being fiddled somewhere.

I'm asking.

Very true, fingers xssed we are ok!!!

Just google "how to evade a drugs test"
evidently hock didn't
basically its really easy and a google search shows up companies who will sell compounds that will mask cocaine.

Well, well, you learn something new everyday. This Hock chap was stupid in more ways than one then.

Why?

Is Wilkin retiring?

Perhaps he was stupid enough to believe a google add

Shhhhh thats our 2010 scandal , were stickign to "mans head put into bin" scandals for 2009

its been a while since our last salary cap scandal?

Really?

What a muppet !!!

If he's proved guilty by his B test I'm sure he will get a mandatory 2 year ban and I would expect Wigan to sack him. Maybe in 2 years time they may consider taking him back ...
