Leigh seem to be building something special, don't wreck it all.

He's one of the best second rowers in the country on his day and I think it's a move we'd have to seriously consider if the opportunity was there.

All the talk seems to be about his disruption off the field - I think his problem is more on it than off it. When was the last time he did something 'disruptive' off the field apart from his drug ban, which he seems to have learned from, and the ill-discipline for England in which he was't the only one.

We seem to have the culture at the minute were we can take these types of players in and make them want to play for us, it could be argued his last two clubs have been somewhat disjointed which probably didn't help him. I have my doubts as to whether financially we'd be able to afford him/fit him under the cap as he must be one of the highest paid players at Salford.

Like I posted earlier on his day G Hock is one of the best second rowers in the World still ..Leigh Centurions have some of the best back.up staff and best coaching staff in UK RL if they did sign him on a free from Salford he would have to prove that he is good enough both on and off the field he wouldn't just walk into a winning team we have other top class players like Dixon waiting for their chance of making the starting 17 experienced players like Dixon in my opinion would be hard to shift once he gets the chance also we have the outstanding Sarsfield to come back into the team another forward seems something we don't seem to need at the moment esp with the great Tom Spencer on his way back to match fitness .....But the bottom line is if the price is right and we are building for a great few years would it not be a great coup to take a chance on a World Class Forward hoping that our family at the Centurions could help Gareth out with his Demons....

I'd imagine Rowley & the coaching staff has better things to do than constantly try to calm a man who goes through last chances like no one's business. While we've certainly done a good job helping some players focus on their rugby if Hock wouldn't calm down for his hometown club at w!g@n and so easily threw away his chance to represent his country with England I really doubt he'd do it after all this time for Leigh.

You must have a death wish then

Amazing how many Leigh fans have short memories... We adore Timmy Street, have a look at Tims off field activities and disciplinary record on it. Did he learn yes he did under the right coach. Gaz Hock will be no different he will learn from the best coach in the country.

If true welcome to Leigh Gareth...

South Sydney proved last night to be the best you have to be bigger ,stronger & faster than than your oppo
with the best coachin team..Centurions proved last year that in the Championship we where the best by far it's getting into a different ball game over the next two years we have to move up a level or two we have some fantastic playing staff and the Best Coaching Team but if a player comes available who can bring something extra to this fantastic squad and we can find the funding it would be madness not to go with it..Derek B & Paul Rowley are no fools they know what's needed and will act accordingly when the time comes to move Leigh Centurions up a notch I honestly believe that over the next five years the Centurions will become one of the country's leading RL Clubs

Worth a punt on 'Pay as you play'

Would not touch with the longest barge pole in the world. IMO the poor bloke will NEVER change all of his habits.

The habit I wouldnt want him to change is that of being the best second row forward in this country, Rowls would change him, he could turn a pit bull into a poodle temperament wise

I see him as a centre

What ??????..World Class second rower Centre...I bet your fav mag is Viz Mo

Taking advice from mcbanana, but never heard of vizmo although it is hot Vimto weather

Y'know Maurice me and our Dave are of the same opinion but lets face it Greg Worthington and Tom Armstrong have made a great start to the season and have a two very able deputies in Classy Michael Platt and Cam Pitman.

Best 2nd rower in the country. In that case i would imagine there would be a clutch of SL clubs desperate 4 his signature, and why would salford want to lose him.

Link to where it says Leigh have expressed an interest please

There is a clutch of clubs after him as for Salford just maybe he had words with the owner who has plenty to say in the dressing room..

Seems Hock is talking to a RU club.

Can't fault his rugby, just everything else that's an issue, for me would rather it's a no. Can't recall ever seeing sn occasion in all the matches I have seen where a player "makes contact" with the referee. He has had 3 bans for it.

Seen loads of players over the years make contact with the ref McNally few weeks ago got knocked by ref couple years go at Wigan think it was a Hull KR player wiped out the ref and broke his ankle players make contact with refs accidently quite frequently I should imagine

This guy is supposed to be a professional (and lets face it, gets paid BIG professional money) so is it not his own responsibility to make sure he behaves like one? OK we've done a great job with other controversial characters but why would you want to pay big bucks to someone who never seems to learn from his mistakes? This guy has had more than enough chances to prove himself and seems to fail miserably every time. I sincerely hope Leigh don't sign him. We don't need his kind.

Having played at a lower level for 25 years I cannot recall a single game where this happened. Incases where it does happen it would be very unusual. Absolutely amazing how it has happened to 1 player 3 times and how unfortunate that he got a ban each time.

Surely not? The guy is a complete liability and has unfortunately proved time and again that he is either unwilling or unable to change his behaviour. Plenty of experienced coaches have tried to help him but I'm afraid I just don't think he is wired up right for professional sport.

Can't see why any professional RL club would go anywhere near him.

Doc just tweeted Hock has left Salford and he has been whistling Tom Hark

The man's a liability, we should steer well clear
