Does anybody know what's happening about GH? Is there room for him now?

All planned and accounted for. Hock is in fantastic shape and when tested physically is better than most of the current Wigan forwards comparing like for like tests.

Far more gifted line breaking/offloading forward than any current Wigan players despite what Meds thinks :wink:

He will receive a rousing welcome back from me. So he did something bloody silly but does that mean he goes on suffering. Do we want an other Terry? Terry sadly had the demons running round in his head.Demons he could not cope with.So I ask you. Do we want the same result with Gareth? I do not condone what he did.But if he comes back a bigger better stronger player for us then I can forgive his stupidity. A strong and fit Gareth Hock is of more use playing for us than against us. :D

In some respects being banned has benefitted Hocky. He has a fantastic PT who has managed not only to get Hocky fit physically but also mentally (no easy task).

That's good to hear cpw. Living away from Wigan makes it hard to get first hand information. So it is a blessing for people like me that people like youself keep us informed.Thanks. :D

medlocke you dislike Gaz Hock. how did we never realise :o :wink:

anyway the reception Gaz Hock will get on his first team return will be a huge moment. cant wait for him to play his first reserve match back, the ground will be packed and will give him a huge confidence boost

I, too, am looking forward to see Gaz back in Cherry 'Pink' in June :)

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

it's not that i dislike him, it's the fact he got a second chance because he is slightly talented, where as others less talented have been shown the door for lesser offences at other clubs, it should be one rule for everybody no matter how talented, besides arent the like of Tomkins, Farrel, Mossop, Tuscon etc better prospects and better value for money
