We must be overloaded with hard hitting props then!

Or even back rowers.



He has no respect for club,country or even himself.

Waste of a skin.

My mistake, but why a waste of skin? He used recreational drugs, not performance enhancing, that in my eyes makes him weak,and as for the moral stance I can think of two bad boys that we've employed whilst under a cloud!

Because he's too stupid to learn how to behave, he's a England international and with comes some responsibility, or it would to a normal person.



I don't and have never supported the signings of the players you refer to.

Having a responsible position that kids will look up to for guidance? Hock did not give two hoots for this. No one in their right mind would condone the use of any drug including "recreational" ones. Hock may have played some good rugby but as a person he is not fit to represent England

What is most depressing, is his singular failure to learn from his past misdemeanours; there are other examples much closer to home, of players who have found themselves in the last chance saloon and as a result, got their heads down and tried to rehabilitate. Hock appears to be incurably stupid - he goes to the last chance saloon and gets bladdered! Thick as a whale omelette.

Looks like the other lads who were implicated have been left out by McNammara.



A few notable absentees from the squad, all who were rumoured to be involved in the night out.

Which makes the cries of protest from Dr MarwanK and his cronies even more hollow; everyone has been punished, but Hock has suffered more serious censure due, I would imagine, to a) his past record and b) the fact that he was guilty of several breaches.

and c) despite going out n the lash, the rest of them turned up for training on time!

and d) they didn't have a go at the coach when he bollocked them for it.

We are going to get mullard on Saturday

Is he any good? what position does he play?

















i'll get me coat!
