" drugs cheat gareth hock".....since when has cocaine been a performance enhancing drug??

The press are effing idiots arn`t they. It is good news as far as Wigan are concerned if they can keep hold of hock. If they show faith in him i am sure he will come back even stronger.

It's interesting that they have waited until now to make a decision.

IL says they have been monitoring him. I hope this includes regular tests to make sure he is off the stuff as any further repeats would spell the end of his career and would not look good for the club.

If this is the case then the club deserve credit for handling the situation in a caring and professional manner. I hope Gaz repays the club if and when he returns.

IMO if he returns he will become our version of Morley(not implying that morley has ever taken any drugs BTW), as he will have so much to thank the club for i feel he will be awsome.

who or where does it imply that it is 'performance enhancing'? Its on the banned list, and therefore he is/was a cheat so why link the two?

Excellent news!

Hocks mid season return could be massive for us in terms of any potential cup or playoff run.

Only the sponsor and next seasons captain 2 be announced now and it's the perfect off season.

It would be more perfect had we signed Greg Inglis, Jaryd Hayne and Fui Fui Moi Moi.

Can't complain though.

I know, you got Deacon instead

heard we a rumour we are going in for recently unemployed NRL player Danny Wicks

Drug Dealer? Not the kind of person we want associated at our club!
Doubt he would get gain entry into the UK anyway, no doubt Catalans would be interested though.

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic lol.
