Indeed, lets just do this. Lets teach the younger generation that you can put a load of $hit up your nose and be let off when caught.
Can you image the uproar from the anti drugs charities? Can you image the damage that would do to our game? But no, just as long as wigan are ok, who cares eh?

I don't care about anything other than Wigan winning.

I have to agree.
If I was the boss of a company and one of my employees was caught taking drugs or doing anything criminal, he/she'd be out the door like a shot. Simply for the image of the company, even more so if the company was an international company permenantly in the limelight.

You keep coming back to 'a good slap'. Do you mean this metaphorically or literally?
He's a professioanl rugby league player and tough as nails. Who do you propose gives him this 'good slap'.
As a professional he is well aware of the implications of drug use; whether recreational or performance enhacing. Whether you agree with the lack of distinction between the two is irrelevant. The fact remains what he has done warrants a two year ban.
Neither Hock nor the club should appeal such a ban; there are no grounds for doing so.

Who decides that it warrants a two year ban?
The grounds for appealling are that we will be without one of our best players. Obviously we would not use such an argument in a court-we would let the lawyers come up with some nonsense-but that is our grounds for fighting this.

So you want to challenge something that has been legally agreed upon between the RFL and the WADA??
Good luck with that. The more I read of your posts, I just feel you are an obvious troll because someone couldnt be this clueless
