No need to wine about it.

Don't usually bother with rumours but got told from someone who is usually correct that we are trying hard to get him. Hope he is wrong this time.

He's exactly what we need IMO but very risky with his disciplinary problems and i assume we will be offering big money otherwise he why leave Salford? Risk written all over it but it's one of those we need to take if we are to progress

One of the best forwards in world rugby on his day.

When was the last time anyone saw hock have an outstanding game? He's been largely rubbish whenever i've seen him since he left wigan. Shows the odd glimpse of what he is capable of but far too inconsistently and the baggage he brings isn't worth what you're getting on the field IMO. carney definitely worth the risk but hock not

Hudgells q&as would be shown as a massive farce if we then signed Hock, as a person hes everything Hudge hss said we're trying to rid the team of.

I've mulled it over and agree with you.

Suprised you have any players left after Mad Monday , certainly do not think Chester will want Hock after that

When he came back from his drugs ban he worked incredibly hard at Wigan and had a great season under Wane in 2012. Then something happened internally (there are various rumours but the truth hasn't really come out) and Wigan lost patience with him and shipped him to Widnes.



He played well in a very poor team. Going to Salford was clearly a mistake. But he's also done well this season. Not just on his day, but over the course of the season he's easily the best second rower in Super League. He runs incredibly hard, is difficult to put down, has a step and offloads more than anyone in the league.



Against that he misses 3 to 6 games a season through suspension. He gives penalties away more than most (or so it seems - I'd be glad to be proved wrong on this though).



So you have to decide - Is he worth it?



If I was Hull KR I'd snap him up. Surely as fans you want to see great players. And he is a great player.

no, he isn't

Very erudite. And well argued sir.

On 2014 form, Elliot Whitehead would get my vote.
