He probably is. I doubt anyone would want a maniac like Hock on a RL field, never mind playing against their expensively assembled squad. Hock is a time bomb and Koukash did exactly the right thing in getting rid of him. If this clause exists, it's more about protecting his players from violence than not wanting him to beat them. You lot seem to be under the impression that Hock is still a good player? He's had about three flashes of brilliance in his career and nothing in the last 3 years.

Thanks for the motivational speech. Clown Yed ..Still a good player no he's not mate he,s a brilliant player

The funny thing is..Hock isn't an issue for Salford anymore..Unfortunately for Salford,they still have Koukash.Once he decides to get his nose out of a game he has no education about and get back to signing cheque's..The better Salford,will become.

I know nothing on training race horses,but I know how to put a bet on...

Koukash will be of to Australia soon once gets his franchise.

Re: Hock : Mon Mar 30, 2015 8:41 pm  

No chance of a franchise

Wouldn't a clause preventing a person plying his trade be illegal under EU rules regarding restriction of trade ?
Some good money here for a lawyer

But hopefully not the ones who may have missed the clause in the first place?

Not as long as Leigh pay him his contract terms with them I would think.

Re: Hock : Tue Mar 31, 2015 10:08 pm  

Wether preventing a player playing against his former club because of a clause in his leaving contract is legal strikes me as very odd. You don't sign contracts with former employers these days. Did anyone ever ?

Seems to me this is just hype and tells me Salford expect to lose on April 18.

Think most of their fans think so too.

Re: Hock : Tue Mar 31, 2015 11:06 pm  

I don't know enough about this story to make an educated statement on it, however I will say that come game day, it will pretty much depend on which Salford turn up, the good Salford or the woefully inept Salford.

Should the poor Salford pitch up at the LSV, then they are there for the taking apart... Hock or no Hock.

Koukash would then probably bail on the club, which would be bad news for them. Where on earth would they find that kind of financial backing again ?

Agree..The clause would have to be in place on the Salford contract he signed.
