| When I turned the TV on I thought it was a game of Union at first. But then he didnt look quite fat enough for that.

| the guy is bound to have put a bit of junk in the trunk as he hasn't played this year due to breaking his leg in aus. But as previously said he is a game breaker he can do things no one else can.

That’s probably because he’s been out with a broken leg sustained in pre-season.
He appears to have had a number of injuries in the last couple of years and each time he’s returned he looked bigger than ever, so I was interested to see what sort of shape he was in after such a long layoff – wow.
He’d probably go ok with a couple of ten minute spells per game, however, I don’t think even Warrington can afford such a luxury.
I’m just glad I saw him at his best.

You clearly haven't seen much of him then in the ten years or so he's played in SL. Maybe at the end of his career but ball skills that Gareth ( Mr Niceguy ) Hock ( or hardly anyone else for that matter ) will never aspire to match.

| Yeah I've got to say Solomona is/was one of the most skill full & dynamic players to have played SL, and has produced some astonishing feats in his time
Now he doesn't look fit for a pub team and I'm amazed he played.

Did you see him scoring 3 tries against Wigan for the Bulls in that 2007 play-off game ?

| Since when was having ball skills and a few injury layoffs an excuse to become a fat ****?
Gareth hock is a forward with ball skills, and had 2 years out from the game, and believe it or not....he didn't become morbidly obese.

yeah, i'm afraid he can't do those things anymore because, in case it escaped your attention he's put on about 50 pounds, all round his waist.
It must be terrible for his health.

I have, and so have many other Wakefield fans. He displayed some fantastic skills at Wakefield. In his last season he played with all sorts of injuiries and helped keep us up.
