Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013
Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013
Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

Hock will be back in the 2nd row when the Hoff goes back to Oz at the end of the year.

It's no secret that he trains in a local gym, and looks in magnificent physical condition.

Imo its not about how he looks physically after so long out of the action
I would be more inclined to see how quick his line speed is  |

Things I learned on 11/08/12
Gareth Hock can't pass
Gareth Hock can't run
Gareth Hock can't fight

| Quote: Rogues Gallery "No it doesn't.
The precedent had already been set with an un-named football player, so it looks as though it is a two year ban but can return to team training after 21 months.
They can do all the personal training for that 21 months if they so wish. HTH'"
Thanks Rogues. 
If that is the precedent I will live with it. Should really have been stipulated 21 months ago. |

Im guessing the footballer hadnt tried it on yet then. At the end of the day hes allowed to train with the team before his ban ends. When you think about it it gives the team an advantage not the player as it allows the team to assess whether it will be a good idea and after all it was the PLAYER that was banned.

Both Hock and Fielden to return at about the same time. Should certainly add some extra spice to our forward pack. |

Does anyone think Madge will play Hock as sub against Huddersfield, the day after his ban finishes?
Would so love that - a Wigan pack plus 4 forward subs: perm any 10 from these ( injuries permitting):
Fielden
Micky Mac
Coley
Hoffman
Hansen
Lockers
Prescott
Lima
Mossop
Hock
Faz
Joel in the centre and Tuson standing by.
Hope Mason and Griffin and co would be fit to face them! Time for revenge after last year's game at DW when Wigan were underpowered in the pack. Can't see Mason stamping on anyone's ankle this time.... |

With two international players added the pack looks strong. Feilden is renowned for his fitness and the break will have him raring to go. Hock has been given a chance to rebuild his career and needs to repay the clubs faith in him.

If its a ban from competitive sport, then he were only allowed to return to training after the full 24 months it would likely be at least a further 2 or 3 months until they were ready for first team action. That would in essence then become a 27 month ban.

Putting Hock on the bench against Hudds could add a thousand to the gate.
Would be daft not to IMO.

Reckon he'll defo be in the 19 for that reason but I think lobbing him straight back in might be a mistake. I'd rather he turned out for the 20s first |
