I'm feeling much more positive about the season if Hock is staying. He's our 'go to' man in the pack and along with Tomkins will always give you a sniff of winning any game.G

I've always been a big Hock fan, but thinking about him and winning games, I am struggling to remember any where he has actually come up with something which has made a major difference in a tight game, which forwards like Graham, Lockers, Sinfield, Peacock, Westwood (even the likes of Feka) etc could reel off. Cameos within games he certainly has in his cv.

Would love to be proven wrong.

He was pretty immense against Saints at Langtree park for starters.

Hello all, not sure where to post but this seemed as good as anywhere!
Just read the talk in AUS is that your trying to get Willie Tonga, not sure if its Hock transfer fee or totally separate.

I agree totally with you on this one Finfin,i too have always marveled at the genius of Hock's play although the majority of these were in walk overs when we were the totally dominant side,i haven't seen too many of these performances when we were in the trenches so to speak,a classic example is this seasons GF semi against Leeds where he was almost anonymous
Gareth is a luxury player who can rip sides to bits when it suits but i would swap him anytime for Gareth Ellis

So that puts paid to the rumour of a bust up with Wane because Hock's squad number had been given to Farrell then I assume?

Seems odd that he's been given Hock's number.

Re: Hock : Wed Nov 14, 2012 8:27 am  

What numbers Hock got?

Maybe the club thought he was nailed on to leave. I wonder who's got the 4 shirt also!

Surely it isnt that hard to just swap numbers late in the day, very odd as Pemps said
