If you have managed to consume a cup of tea, a chocolate bar, Coca Cola, anything which contains chillis, eggs, Cheese, Poultry and energy drinks today I strongly suggest you pay a visit to your local dietician.'"
is there a particular reason I cant have a cup of tea today? or is it everyday?
or did you not know that the . on the bottom of a ? is a full stop, indicating the end of a sentence and you didnt realise each item was listed as a separate question and you got yourself all confused and thought i was asking if you had had them all?

 It happens all the time with Baz, Smokey.

| Quote Gazemous="Gazemous"I agree. Any ban from the sport should include training with any club for the duration of the ban'"
Did the ban specify this though? If so, then, even though I am a Wigan fan, he should serve it out.

| even if it does get rejected. What stops wigan having a chat with his personal trainer and informing them what hock needs to do?
I think the good work hock has done within education will look good for him here. Madge will certainly improve his game and a firing gareth hock will be incredibly dangerous to handle for the aussies in the autumn!

| Quote Ferdy="Ferdy"I think he should be allowed to train, dont have a problem with that,
However i do not agree that a slap on the wrist would suffice, RFL need to be strong and ban to send a message that drugs, recreational or otherwise will not be tolerated in our sport.'"
Should that include a ban on alcohol, then?

| Quote chubbs1981="chubbs1981"2 years for a recreational drug is a fair punishment and he should be allowed to return. Roid use and similar things used to "cheat" should be a straight lifetime ban'"
I agree with this.
If not a life ban then the punishment should be more severe. It's baffling the punishment for recreational drug use and performance enhancing drug use is the same

You think that those things are 'unhealthy', do you?

| I voted no
Two years for a non performance enhancing drug is very harsh in the first instance but he has a ban so he should be made to see it out

| Quote cod'ead="cod'ead"So why have the RFL arranged the consultation?'"
The RFL don't decide the outcome but they have been asked by Wigan to arrange it and have accepted as they have to. They are the governing body and if a club wants to take it to court then they have the right to.
