Why if hes stupid enough ban him for life

Well thats ok then its on the official Wigan site now.

I know I keep coming out with the line "big daft lads who were only good at sports at school" when describing RL forwards but Mr Hock redefines the definition of both "big daft lad" and "idiot"

[uIF[/u the B sample comes back positive then, IIRC, it's the defacto 2 years.

Have you been taking it too?

Talk about knee jerk.

Seconded.

Quite possible that one

How do you work that out then enlighten me

Huge huge blow to Wigan, England and RL. Will create some salary cap space though

expect Mason's arrival next year...

Indeed. All the talent in the world, but too thick to use it properly.

You made a ridiculous ill thought out statement.

Why should he be banned for life?

Is cocaine performance enhancing or recreational?

Leaves you floppy, enough said.

That statement from Wigan RLFC should sum up what is discussed on here - try and stick to the facts as known, the facts as known are all contained on the Wigan News page.

Speculation and innuendo will be removed

Your right i did make a knee jerk reaction but why say that im taking it too seems a very strange comment to me?

If your trying to get a bite try leeds rhino superman

2 years probably

It will do. It does make you Mr Paranoid.

A side effect is excitability.

How old is he now - 27/28?

A two year ban will cost him the peak years of his career, and arguably when he's at the top of his earning potential.

Not convinced he's a great loss from an international PoV, if he does cop a ban. Always came across as a bit of a flat track bully, good against the likes of the French but sadly wanting against the Aussies and Kiwis.

Oh and BTW LFC Rhino, where did I say you were taking it?

Under WADA rules cocaine is defined as performance enhancing. Hocks test will be viewed as in competition. If he had been tested positive out of season it would not be performance enhancing. As it is the ban should be a mandatory 2 years. See Matt Stevens at Bath rugby for reference.

First headline on 5live, well done Gareth Hock, idiot

Not a life ban then?

i think players in SL are pre warned when they will be tested (think 5 days notice so they will turn up), most performance enhancing drugs would be in the system anyway, but cocaine can be out of the system within 5 days, if this is so the he is even stupider than he looks, if thats possible.
