I really think we would be missing a trick if we didn't appeal Hocks ban. Should we appeal and lose I cant see the RFL extending Hocks ban as that would mean him missing out on the exiles game. So we could potentially get this reduced by 1 match and have him available for catalan or they just leave it at 2 and there is nothing lost.

IMO we should definately be appealing the length of his ban.

If Wigan are going to appeal, Gareth Hock should ask the Super League Players Association to represent him - assuming he's a Member.
John Wilkins is the Chairman.
And, while we are on the subject of Wilkin, did anyone watch The Super League Show with Tanya Arnold? Wilkin had a right shiner!! Best bit of the show apart from watching Sam and George's wonderful tries.

I think Hock should appeal the length of his ban based on Ryan Bailey alone.

I have been looking at some youtube footage of the unprovoked attack from Bailey on Kevin Brown and then a seperate punch-es exchanged with Luke O'Donnell.

Ryan Bailey only recieved a 1 game ban for this!!! and his previous record is equally as poor as gareth hocks.

Here are the links -

Yes I watched it. She was quick to point out he didn't get it in the fight!
