Have we got a song for Hock?

Yeah, it's the one to the muppets? Gareth Hock, de de de de de.... Gareth Hock, de de de de.

White Lines?

To the tune of Daddy Cool..

Gareth, Gareth Hock, Gareth, Gareth Hock.

Simple and easy.

Has he? Perhaps he's seen the future!

First touch of the ball. Runs straight at Robinson. Barges through and scores. Robinson leaves the field with suspiciously brown shorts.

34.

I'd have a cheeky bet that he spills the ball on his first carry.

Always liked Hock, even as a Wire fan. His style is not only effective but it's crowd pleasing. Everybody loves a big tough thug (meant in a nice way) doing bruising runs. Well apart from when were were playing him obviously.

I was very disappointed when he got banned, not least for the shame and discredit he did himself.

The guy will have to win back not only the super league fans, but I'm guessing some Wigan fans too. All this can only be done with hard work, he never shirked responsibility in the past, so I don't see him doing it this time.

All being said, he was guilty of taking drugs and has taken the punishment with a certan amount of dignity, lets hope he learnt his lesson and is back to his best to help destroy the Aussie's at the end of the season.

P.S Also hope he's injured/banned/ill for the Wire game

great post. summed up my feelings exactly. i wont be applauding him any more than i will any of the other lads - in fact he's got to work a bit harder for me as i feel he owes this club big time by the discredit his actions brought. for the good of this team and the club i hope he is a success.

I'd love him to play some part this week but only if he's right. With no reserve games to blood him back in I would play hom on the bench. The lad was class before his ban and with all the Wigan support behind him I'm sure he will be class again. if does play I think he will hot hard in the tackle and run hard without taking chances with ordinate that are not on. Can't wait to see him back.

Homophobe

Can see that happening actually - you know he's going to charge onto the ball like a maniac.

Expect anything more than 2 10 -15 minute spells and you'll be very dissapointed. What happens in them is anyones guess but id expect at least 1 dropped ball and missed tackle. Id have him defending at the side of Locky because hes going to try and knock someone into the stand and could miss.

many people have tried running over robinson and havent got far :')

Abit like when Robinson tried running over the roundabout near the cherry gardens then.

Not a homophobe just carp at typing on my phone! I havebeenhaving troublewithmyspacebar again!

In reverse!!!!!!!

Correct. Like a man possessed, revved up by the crowd.

Oh, he'll be buzzin alright!



I'll go for 2 penalties in his stint, and a knock on under the posts as he gets an attack of white line fever!

When's Fielden coming back? We need a proper pantomime villain! It just doesn't feel right booing Junior.

Im hoping he comes in and does a decent job this season - enough so the Wigan fans dont get on his back. I imagine it will take him a while to get used to playing for Maguire, it will also be interesting to see how much he stands out in this current side, considering he was by far our best player when he got banned.

Well he hasn't got long, he's off at the end of the season

I can't wait for that first run! Hope it can be from a kick off so he has a good amount of ground to get some pace to take straight into the line.

I still don't think we'll see Hock in the first team until the Cas game.
