You should know not to put that on here. Pemps. Let him back/ keep him on and what message do you send to the young kids? It is integral to starting a new culture that we show zero tolerance and set him aside. I dont begrudge him trying to redeem himself in two years but he shouldnt be given another opportunity with us after he has shown such indiscipline and distain for our club

Buggar! missed it. Clues to what it was please. PMs welcome.

Chances Hock could be back early according to this.'"
Sounds like a good idea they have there.

I can understand the reasons they have tbh.
Why should the punishment be the same for a guy thats been a fool by going out and taking a recreational drug is it as for a guy that takes a preformence enhancing drug to cheat his opponents and the sport.
I still believe they should be banned and should have to officially prove through regular drug tests they're clean before they come back but it doesn't seem to make much sense.
Whatever happens to Hock in terms of his ban i do hope that when he's back we enforce upon him weekly drugs tests to prove he's behaving himself. If he fails one he should then be sacked on the spot.

Absolutely spot on.

| Have I missed a statement by the club on Hock, or are they still working out the wording almost 5 months after her was caught?

| They havent released one yet, obviously hoping the incident merely goes away, its not like the media care, even the rl press dont seem to.

It’s a crazy stance to take.
IMO the best solution would just be to come out and say [i‘yeah Hock has been a bad boy and we working with Hock as much as we can to help him out. We are hopeful of signing a pre contract agreement with Hock any day now and this will be the last thing Wigan will comment on these difficult matters’[/i
That would be hell of a lot better than letting it foster and a whole will he won’t he situation rising closer to the date of his ban expiring.
Take the heat now, let the anti Wigan trolls come out of the woodwork and have a pop and then it will all die down over time. The last thing the club should want is for every two or three months a new person asks the question about Hock.

| I know for a fact that there was a statement prepared about six weeks ago.
I really don't know why it hasn't been released, but maybe the club just wanted to get the coaching position announcement sorted first.

Not the exact wording but the gist of it. However I don't know if things have changed and if they have for whatever reason.
We'll just have t wait and see.
