This is exactly what happened last time when he ended up with 5 matches playing for Widnes. Even the ref on that day said it was accidental and never reported it, both sets of fans agreed they could see no issue, yet he still copped the ban. Who knows what craziness the disciplinary will come up with next???

I genuinely worry for him when it's over, I just hope he doesn't follow the Terry Newton route.

He's crying on social media '7 game ban just because it's me', stop doing stupid things then you bloody idiot!

Seen that. There's pictures going round of 'things you can blame Gaz Hock for' with one saying it's his fault that the tower of Piza has a lean and so on.

He's again taking no responsibility for his actions! He moaned that his drugs ban was too long, he seriously thinks he was harshly treated by McNamara and couldn't work out why he and not others had been sent home and now he's taking no blame for dropping his shoulder in to a referee.

Whilst he carries on with this victim complex he'll never feel the need to change.

I would be more worried about him taking the John Hopoate route -- bouncer for nightclubs owned by "identities" known to the police.

Who is the Manchester or Leeds equivalent of Sydney's Ibrahim brothers?

Spot on.

I also thought it was embarrassing how Terry O'Connor defended him on Boots n All yesterday. I know Terry is mates with him but firstly if Terry is pretending to be a Sky commentator/pundit/whatever he needs to stop letting who he's friends with and which teams he likes affect his judgement (he won't criticise Widnes for instance). And secondly just blindly backing Hock up and pretending he didn't do anything isn't helping his friend at all. He needs to be helping his friend realise what he's doing is wrong and needs to change for both a better career and a better life.

I like Terry (as a player, think he's god awful & cringmakingly bad on Sky) but that wasn't what was needed either professionally or personally.
