| Quote: Coventry Warrior! "Saying drugs is part of everyday is rubbish, its true but it does not make it any better. Gareth Hock is a professional. I dont get high off my face before I go to work or at the weekend.
Some people would give anything to be able to play for Wigan or represent this country, and this numbskull has thrown it all away for some silly thrill.'"
Why have you got it all wrong here.
You say I say drugs is part of everyday life is rubbish, then you go on to say its true.
Don't localise it to yourself. Somewhere in the UK a deal will be being done as we speak, someone taking drugs as we speak, its part of everyday life. Maybe not for you, but defo for the UK, and for Wigan.
You don't take drugs before work? Did I every suggest Hock took anything before a game? NO, NEVER.
Just because you don't take drugs during the day now means others don't?
Oh come on, surely you're not so naive.

because on the whole, clubs dont want to lose star players.
double standards all round - they will hang a young lad out to dry, but as soon as one of the big boys does something wrong its brushed under the carpet.
Hock is obviously a special needs case for getting caught.

The knowledge within a squad that you can behave however you see fit is far more damaging to a club than losing a star player.

23997_1287161421.jpg [quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

It's a joke this and i think for this very reason people should post on here if they see a player off there heads i know people disagree with it but what would you sooner happen the club deal with it or the rfl?
So where do we stand with the cap now will hock come off it?

Zero tolerance for me, precedent set with Dave Allen, get him sacked and move on.
Culture this, culture that, absolute bunkum.

| My first thoughts on this were that we should wash our hands of him completely due to him being such a pillock.
However after thinking things through my thoughts are that we should do whatever the RFL hand down which I assume will be a two year ban. For those two years he will be sacked by the club.
Then after the two years peroid if he has shown that he regrets what he has done and if he can prove (by random testing) that he has stayed clean then he can come back on our terms in terms of wages.
As much as people may seem to want him lynched at the moment and I can understand that, I do feel that unless it is something like murder then people deserve a sceond chance. However it would be his 2nd and last chance and after that if he could not learn from this then it would be time to give him up completely.
In the meantime I think it is time to get Lee Mossop back.

You'd presume so.
Like i said it makes a new coaches job that much tougher and it makes Lenagans task nigh on impossible now!
I don't see where we're going to get a world class coach from let alone the 3 top class players we need.
It's time to focus fully on our youth players.

He got a two year ban.
Hock's 25 going on 26. Two years without rugby coming back at 28 going on 29.

Im going to presume that the rugby football league will do all it can to protect the game. Whether that will be protecting a GB Star.
UK Sport will be the ones who will dish out the punishment.
Zero tolerance for any drug related offence.
