Been charged with posession with intent to supply as well.

A real shame that is to see a young lad with talent throw his career away through stupidity.

That really is going to be a huge blow for wigan. Hock is one of their best forwards and imo they are really going to struggle without him.

Big shame, but that's the price you pay kids. In the words of the Grange Hill cast "Just Say No".

Sure, he's not to be sniffed at, but too prone to brain explosions to be a cert for England.
