Benzoylecgonine is one of several metabolic products of cocaine. It is formed from the hydrolysis of cocaine and is a very specific marker for the presence of that drug. If, however, benzoylecgonine is found in the urine, it is not evidence of illicit cocaine use.

i for one dont feel Hock should be kept on at the club..........he has brought shame on our club and should in no way be rewarded for what he has done.

He was always aware what would happen if he got caught with drugs in his system..yet he CHOSE to do it anyway.

Quote: Smooth Stu "I wonder how many would want to keep a cocaine user if he was an apprentice, or a steward, or someone in the ticket office? It seems in the main that people want to keep hold of Hock purely for his rugby skills. I wonder if it was Tim Smith, or Richie Mathers would they be after the same result?
Rules are there to be adhered to, so if the rule is a sacking it shouldn't matter who it is.'"


I don't think anyone would really care icon_wink.gif

I think you'll resign him when the ban is finished anyway, but he won't be anywhere near the same player.

Quote: wiggywigwig "now is it me or does the rfl rules state he CAN be kept on by the club in some form'"


Yep, say for example that Wigan were to pay Hock to be an anti-doping champion for the RFL and work as part of a taskforce specifically campaining against drugs in the sport. Should this be authorised by the RFL as they see it as a good thing and it costs them nothing as Wigan are paying then provided that authorisation is gained from the RFL then no problems. I don't quite get why people can't understand the rule that provided the RFL say OK then it can happen.

That being said, I don't think Hock to be given the free ride or invited back to the club after the ban.

Why on earth would the RFL want Hock in this role?

What is so hard to understand about "other than authorised anti-doping education or rehabilitation programmers"?

It means education for Hock or rehabilitation for Hock not Hock doing the educating or rehabilitating of others. 6.08837890625:10
