Sorry but you're wrong, cocaine has been found to relieve symptoms of fatigue & improvement of reaction time within a 2 hour window. If it were taken pre match then clearly performance enhancing icon_rolleyes.gif Yes the overall effect would be detrimental but the immediate effects are clear from a medical/physiological POV.
So yes Hock was a drug cheat, whether that was his intention or not to improve his performance.

Looks like we where is for Hock and maybe even close to signing him.

Spending big on a backrow foward is not our priority IMO, although would have been happy with him signing.

I wouldn't have wanted him on a 5 year deal, massive risk for Wigan, in fact I wouldn't sign any players on that lenght of contract.

Hopefully we will here some news on recruitment internal and external very soon.

Quote: talulah "Hardly - try reading the whole article...

[i"Faster reaction times and diminished effects of fatigue have been observed. Improvements were greatest in behaviorally impaired subjects (e.g. sleep deprived, fatigued, or concurrent use of ethanol) and least improvements were observed in well-rested, healthy subjects."[/i

So if he took to the field knackered and drunk, it would have helped him a bit.
You do realise the bit you've underlined, made bold and put a sarcastic emoticon about does actually state there is an improvement in well rested, healthy people don't you? Albeit not as much as in others, but still an improvement. Therefore, performance enhancing. icon_razz.gif

Well Freddie L Wigan stuck by Gaz Hock and he's come thru it, unlike Tez Newton when the RFL did nothing and look what happened to him, also Hull offered Hock more money than Wigan!! strange isn't it when you already have signed 3 players during the super league season you must have a bigger cap than the rest of us!!

Compare our two squads, player for player, and then decide which players would demand the higher wages!!

We also had 2 relatively high earners (1 being one of the clubs top earners) removed from our cap pre season and another out on loan!!

What's your point??

When I first read this comment I honestly thought he was talking about Wigan fiddling the salary cap (by referring to Lima, Hoffman and Finch). I had no idea there was a Wigan fan out there who is stupid enough to suggest other clubs are cheating the salary cap!!!
