I like players who take the line on with the determination to make a break. Therefore Hock and Sam are my two favourite players and Ainscough isn't far behind. And Tommy.
Some players expect to be tackled or won't attempt to run through.

He's a very talented player, and seems to have curbed his aggression. Now he just needs to be more selective with his offloads and he'll be one of the best in the world IMO.

He certainly is looking quality this season. Everytime hes got the ball he looks like he could make something out of nowhere. Also liked how he was sticking up for Tomkins at the end there.

Got to admit, i've always enjoyed watching him play. Love his aggressive running, and is a real handful for any defence.

Hock.

I would agree, there's more quality props than second rowers.

See that Hock was limping off after the end of the Wakey game.
Also noticed the trainer on to him during the game.
He is essential to Wigan's current form.

I am not so sure about that, Coley has had a huge influence, he is playing well which has take the workload off the rest of the forwards which makes them play better, therefore our pack has been laying the platform and this alloows our backs plenty space. Hock has been outstanding though, he is not the only one on good form though.

Got to give a mention to Lockers as well who for me has been our best player so far this season

They said he had a tight back thats why the trainers were on at Murrayfield and Wakey with Hock lay on his back crossing his leg over the other one to stretch it.

Agreed he has been fantastic. Has always been solid in defence but seems to offer a lot more going forward now which he has not always done before.

Gareth Hock is an outstanding player no doubt about that. He does try to make some offloads in impossible situations though at times but I guess if it comes off for him people will say it was the correct move and if it doesn't people will say he should have kept hold.

Gaz Hock can be the best backrower in the league on his day but he just needs to find that day a little more often. He's getting there in consistancy terms where nowadays i'd say he finds it probably 3 games in 5 where before it would have probably been more around the 1 to 2 games in 5 mark.

He's almost unplayable when he preforms as he did yesterday and as i've said in the past is our best player on that form.

Hock on that form is easily the best back rower in SL and one of the best in the world IMO.

He's devastating.

The great Mick Gregory said about Hock. if put on 2 stone he would kill somebody.

The guy is an animal on that form and you can see were Gregory was coming from.

It's a tough thing to look back on but you can't help but wonder sometimes where the club may be now if Greg was still with us.

His guidance towards the likes of Hock and O'Loughlin and towards guys thats left like Brown and Robinson would have had those players careers onto another level imo.
