Don't know why I haven't actually. I have done via e-mail and texts though but not posted on here.

He was a major plus for me in that game. Looked a real handful every time he carried the ball and seemed to be able to off load at will (however we didn't always have runners off him). He also tackled well and played plently of minutes.

Could be pushing for a cup final spot IMO. Prescott needs to play on Friday to test his hammy out

No one mentioned Micky mc either, thought he had a very good game!
Hock surprised me how well he went with the long minutes he played, good to see!

“Nobody mentioned Hock after Salford"
HUMBLE PIE CP, it can choke some people.

It would be nice to see comments from those members that voiced their negative opinions on Gaz on here before his comeback.....

We all have opinions but we should always be mature enough to hold our hands up and stand to be corrected when one of our players displays signs of play that can contradict anything we write about them.
Gaz has made his well-documented mistakes but I for one think he will show brilliance in 2012 like we haven’t witnessed from him throughout his career to date.

The guy made a mistake, but he's done his punishment and as far as I'm concerned it's Page 1 of a new chapter for him.

He's bound to have some ring rust, but when he gets a full pre-season under his belt, he'll be back to his best.

And I'd rather have a slightly underdone Gaz Hock playing for us than against us.

Well said. I am confident that Hock will have the doubters eating their own words - he's a world class player who obviously needs game time. You don't have to believe me just ask the guys who play with him (or you could read Terry Newton's book)!

I for one can't wait to see him after he's got a full pre-season under his belt, when he's on the same page as the half backs, running on to those Finchy short balls!

Don't care if I sound like a record being stuck, but here it is again.
Gaz hock has the potential to be the worlds best second rower.
After only half a dozen or so games of match fitness he is already giving us glimses of his class.
For those who patiently waited for his return, its been well worth the wait.
