I think part of the problem is a player having his head turned by a glamorous (NRL against SL) suitor. When a player is being approached it's bound to get them thinking. IF Hock goes it's more likely IL's cashing in on a player who doesn't want to stay and that makes sense (distasteful as it is for fans).

And yes, contracts mean jack when it's a buyers market.

Bit selective there. 13 from 30 overall at HKR.

Better than Brett Finch's 18 tries in his 60 games for Wigan.

My Dad used to work part time at CP, and spoke with legend Brian McTigue, who was his hero.

Apparently, 'Mac' used to say to the backs, "just follow me, you will get some trys" !

What an understatement !

Hock could do this. Nowhere near as a ballplayer or enforcer like Mac.

AFAIK, 'Mac' never got sent off.

Got quite a few 'carried off', but never got sent off.

As an ex-boxer, his fist never travelled more than 6 inches.

In a season practically written off with a freak injury! I am confident in a team like Wigan with the quality of players he'll have around him Green will be a revelation,his support play is excellent, added to which he has a fair bit of pace. Really sorry to see him leave Rovers, but wish him and Taylor all the best for the future, and hope they pick up a bit of silverware in the coming seasons.

Sadly the views of people who've actually seen him play regularly seem to mean very little for some! It's way easier to just say "We used to sign Trent Barrett!" and declare rugby league in this country is dying
