Marwan's pretty much just confirmed it on twitter.

I hope Leigh know what they're doing....

Someone on the Leigh Facebook page did a survey asking fans if they wanted Hock at Leigh. At the last count 123 said no, 3 said yes. Somewhat surprising if the Leigh board are so out of touch with what their fanbase wants. In a team that already contains Barlow and Acton, plus a few players that get under opponents' skin, it would be a shame if the RL world in general acknowleged Leigh less for the fantastic, flowing rugby they have often shown over the last year or so than for the more negative and niggling aspects of their play.

I see Marwan has now taken to announcing Leigh's signings for them, loves the limelight that guy.

Still taking it with a pinch of salt til the club itself makes the announcement

He'll do a few decent turns for them before the usual rot sets in. I doubt he'll leave Liegh on good terms.

It said like it if your in favour but comment no if you're not. It was about 50/50.

They asked like if yes or post no, 365 liked

Cant complain if the club know what they are doing, surely its on a pay as you pay deal with penalties for discipline. Either way I have to respect what Derek is doing and the mentality of Paul Rowley for promoting attractive rugby.

Put yourself in Paul Rowley's shoes, he has just been given the opportunity to coach a world class player on his day, he is probably as excited as the fans but for very different reasons, can he manage Gareth Hock?

ah ok, if that's the case then apologies & I was totally wrong about that.

Hock's discipline is a crying shame as he's physically capable of matching it with anybody.

Yeah and lenny from of mice and men had a good go forward.

Officially signed for Leigh. Scary, scary pack at Leigh now, hopefully this is what is needed to give the Bottom 4 of Super League a real scare at the end of the season

Spencer Beswick Moi Moi
Haggerty Hock
Barlow

With Emmit, Acton, Hopkins, Walker, Penky, Wilkes & Dixon to choose from on the bench/reserves. #LeythersAreBack

to be fair to Hock and Leigh, he always seems to be well liked by his fellow players. You dont often hear stories of him being a disruptive influence in the changing room.

has he been picked up for using homophobic language on twitter yet. I mean we previously had lip readers in to see if a player had said something homophobic that nobody had actually heard, so surely they will pick up on someone writing it.

Todays new thing learned.

Stupidity is not solely concentrated in SL clubs.

Mind you Leigh have aspirations so they are practicing early.
