| Quote: Tacitus "I am sorry but Hock is an idiot and head case who is costing this team! When he just focuses on his game he is a great asset. We had that game well and truly won, the Saints player was being petulant because the game had gone away. Hock should have just ignored the provocation and laughed in the players face. Hocks lack of discipline now means we are a weaker side going into two big games, as his actions caused the knock banning of other players. With his issues in the past, I would have hoped he would be more professional on the field. He doesn't have to prove what a man he is by getting into fights - all he needs to do is be the player he is capable of - that is the best way to respond. Now I fear the rest of SL will target his idiotic temper, to get him banned in other games, along with the penalties that go with it. Frankly Wigan should be tearing a strip off of him, and telling him to grow up. Also I think he owes it to younger kids who are watching the game, that there are better ways to react to poor sportsmanship. Sorry but I have lost any respect I had left over for the guy.'" Dont be so bl00dy soft. He chinned a saints mon. He should have got the freedom of the town. why is Lee Mossop excluded from your criticism?

Not being soft at all! Prove your hardness on the field of play where it counts. It was pointless getting into a fight at the point of the game and has now cost us dearly for the next two games. As for Mossop, I thought he was standing up for Tuson after the Saint's players dirty play - that I have some sympathy with - the same with Tuson. Besides I don't watch rugby league for the fighting - there are plenty of pubs I can to for that.

for f**k sake it's rugby league not 11 a side puff ball. Props have always had a dig at each other, part nad parcel of the game..... The ref just wanted to make a name for himself..... As regards being weaker for next 2 games tell that to the players who get a chance to step up, bet they put in 200% effort.

I know fully well that it is rugby league, and that props have goes at each other. But Hock has a track record of it, and it is costing the team. It is not me being soft by saying so, not over the top either. It is expecting a player to be more professional and use his head. If this was a one-off event for Hock, I would be supporting him. But it is not. That is just my opinion, and I will stand by it.

Was only a couple of years ago that everyone on here was saying how soft as a team we were, and that we needed a bit of aggression back in the pack. Hock wins us more games than he loses, that simple for me.

Jesus christ are you lot still going on about this? He's banned get over it. It's not as if you'll need him anyway...play like you did Sunday and it'll be a Cricket score!

Quote: inside_man "Was only a couple of years ago that everyone on here was saying how soft as a team we were, and that we needed a bit of aggression back in the pack. Hock wins us more games than he loses, that simple for me.'" We have some aggressive players in the pack such as Lima. He has made a huge difference to the pack which is why I am so gutted he is leaving early. Micky Mac takes no prisoners either and Hansen is hard as nails. These players do not rise to the bait and so don't get sledged anything like Hock does and Hock does rise to the bait. I think it is obvious this is the case. However I think a 2 match ban was well over the top. Other players with a reputation have been let off with less for similar offences and I think that is why the club appealed. Not because he wasn't guilty. Ultimately I think the only player justified in doing what he did was Tuson for being blind sided and it is also clear Hock really needs to behave now because if he doesn't his bans will not be getting any shorter.
