I see what your saying about the consistency but I can't honestly say I'd be disappointed if we signed him. + unlike Raynor he doesn't have any court cases coming up.

I'd be happy with the signing of Hock, but I honestly can't see us been in for him whatsoever.
We dont need another back rower.

What do you mean by that Dave?

Salary cap dictates that every club will have to have average standard super league players on their books and it's these players who can be the determining factor in where clubs may finish at the end of a season.

Still think Washy worth a place in the 13, agree he isn't a 6, but decent allaction 13 and useful at backup 9.

Suspect he isn't on a starting 13 salary and just don't see better value utility players elsewhere.

Wouldn't swap him for Graeme Horne.

I know it was only Oldham but it was nice to see him heavily involved, playing with a smile on his face.

I think a 2 year ban for what he did was over the top.

I don't expect people to agree with me, buts that my opinion.

Hock was a decent player, but slightly overrated because of who he played for imo. He had great ability, but made too many errors and was a penalty machine at times. If, and that's a big IF, he has signed for us, then I expect him to spend a lot of time in the sin bin or on the side lines serving bans, as officials would no longer turn a blind eye to some of his thugish onfiled behaviour because he is no longer dressed in cherry and white.

I agree. A bit of Charlie is not gonna give a performance enhancement, if anything will detract from this. Its not like he was taking it before he entered the field or anything.

But theres no chance of him signing for us, thought he was already a Wigan player anyway.

I actually agree with you here. He should of got the ban but just not the 2 years, simply because he took a recreational drug & not a performance enhancing drug.

Can't see him signing to be honest but if true then to replace lauaki next season would be a good signing

Will believe it when I see it! But Hock in Luaki out would certainly be a net gain if true

Indeed.

Done his crime and served his time. He did a great interview in RL World magazine a few months back which increased my respect for him.

He'd be a great signing but I'll believe it when I see it.

What crime / discipline rule has Hock broken whilst being a Hull player?

Wasn't it Eric the Viking, who told us that we would be signing a player who would be regarded as best in the league a couple of months ago?

Can't remember who it was but they admitted they'd got their Cameron's mixed up!

Dont think so. Was a different poster who got his Cameron's mixed up.

No.

Can't see it myself Wigan seem to have stuck by him. However, if true I'd be very happy, I've always rated Hock think he's a very good player.

Think it was someone off the Leeds board IIRC

I'm sure Hock was playing as a prop a bit just before his ban?

Sorry for the mistake.

Maybe Agar wants to bring Hock in and move Tickle up to the front row for good

very strong rumour around though at present aint it, can't see him signing today though can you?

do you really think wigan would stick by hock and pay him his six figure salary for two years and then let him go ?
