Todays paper as Tony Smith saying we are not looking overseas for players, but are looking for 1 or 2 more from over here. Goes on to say we have 2 quota spots available but not really the cap space, guess we have given some big pay rises for nxt season then.

Take it all with a huge dollop of salt my good man.

Hock isnt an overseas player ?

signed sealed and delivered...im afraid

I will be worried if that is true after his comment that Hohaia got what he desevered.

Hock let's see -



Wigan - stood by him after using drugs then when he came back he spat his dummy out and didn't want to play for them (this is the only time I think Wigan have done an honourable things only to be stuffed)

Widnes - when Paramatta pulled the plug and he still wouldn't play for Wigan he was loaned out. Not sure if they were interested in signing him after an indiffernet season with the highlight being the way he destroyed us.

Salford - thought they could get the best out of him under Nobby (an experienced coach) but Gaz got kicked out after 1 year of a 4 year deal.



oh yes and he also got kicked out of the England squad for ''breaches of discipline''



but maybe he's signed under his birth name of Gareth Charnock, sent some videos to Tony who's been taken in by them ....!



Tony - tell me it an't so....

Who's comment was that?

Hocks or someone else?

Hock tweeted that Hohaia got what he deserved.

To some extent Hohaia did.



Flower pushes him out of the way as Hohaia (cynically) runs in Flowers path.

Flower gets big daft lad syndrome and pushes him out of the way.

Hohaia then (off the ball) forearm smashes Flower.



Most people would agree that if he took one punch then just desserts.

Most professional players would have the class to not post such an opinion on Twitter however. Most players wouldn't 'wryt thingz lyk ths on twittr' or threaten to murder some geek who works in Dominos in St Helens either. Hock is perhaps the least intelligent player there has ever been in the sport. He is a danger to himself and anyone around him. It's like carrying a hand granade with the pin hanging out on your person all the time. You'd probably be fine for months, but eventually it's going to hurt.



The whole Hock to Warrington thing is supposedly a done deal, evidence of that the closeness of Wire players to him on Twitter recently. But Tony Smith's quote in the Guardian today is interesting:







He's saying that to Guardian journalists as Gareth Hock is threatening to storm Dominos in St Helens to beat someone up? Could be a short stay at Warrington if he's really going there.

Social media ban written in to contract or passing control over to an intermediary, some football clubs do this.

That's just it, though: this caveat. One which you can't understate the importance of.



Hock offered no caveat and simply stated Hohaia deserved what he got. He then then congratulated Flower, took a load of heat and stated, again, that Hohaia got what he deserved. I can't not interpret that any other way than Hohaia deserved all of it and that it is OK to do that kind of thing.
