I'm so glad we didn't sign him. Watching the Salford v saints game tonight put on report for kneeing in the face and then binned for the same thing shortly after. Guys a thug and is going to cost salford games with his discipline.

You can take the lad outta Wigan !

To be honest he was caught bang to rights on the first one but the second one was absolutely nothing

but also very glad we didn't sign him!

The intent was still there, and he went for a swinger, he'd already had a pop at unscrewing masoe's head prior to that

The second one in isolation was barely worth a penalty, but when you have been warned five minutes earlier, the last thing you do is hit someone round the head and then kneel on his head.

Hock's a liability.

Typical Saturday nighter down King Street that lad!!

I'm surprised that Hock & Paterson are not at the top of Wane's shopping list. They could help out with the coaching too.

On the positive side for Hock he was the only one who looked bothered that his team was losing. Just didn't have the brains on how to deal with it.

Wane doesn't like that sort of activity in our sport.
He has been media happy about Widnes going all out to mane his players.

It's just not on that sort of thing at all.

I'm glad that the two Salford games have shown us why we should not have signed Hock and Chase.

No, what he said was that he was unhappy about Widnes players pretending they had been maimed by his players. He didn't mention the ones that had actually been maimed.

Hock charged on two counts of using the knee, the guy really is a liability:

Gareth Hock of Salford Red Devils has been charged with two offences of reckless use of the knees in a fixture against St Helens played on Thursday February 12. Hock is charged with Grade C use of the knees on Tommy Makinson in the 53rd minute and Grade B use of the knees on Mose Masoe in the 61st minute.
