| Quote matthew="matthew"There's a contrast emerging between the Tony Smith approach which is that the aim is to play the right kind of rugby and then that will will lead to the right results and the Michael Maguire approach which is to do whatever is required to get the right results....attacks to the knees, gouging, pretending to be injured, holding players by deliberately trapping the arm/legs etc win penalties , bringing players back early from long bans for drugs, challenging refs decisions etc.
It feeds through into things like accepting bans, accepting bad reffing decisions, accepting disciplinary punishments. In short behaving like men not like spoiled children.
I have no doubt if a Warrington player acted as Hock did, Tony Smith (and the Warrington club) would deal with the player and then hand it to the disciplinary.
On a similar note I suspect the petulant and foolish Tompkins needs a mature coaching influence to stop him going off the rails and it looks like Maguire is not providing that influence. Looking at the change in Lee Briers attitude (and others) under Smith, he could do wonders for Tompkins.'"
Do you honestly think Maguire told his players to go out there and gouge the opposition's eyes out? |

Disgraceful from both Hock and Maguire. To condone that and play it off as nothing is nothing short of farcical. Show's Maguire's true colours, the underhand tactics employed by the Wigan team are obviously not a coincidence and this statement magnifies that point.

Again, where does it say he was referring to the Hock incident? The bit I read doesn't list the questions Maguire was asked, who knows what the question was. If I missed this elsewhere then obviously I take it back... |

Fair enough! Although he does say he needs to have another look therefore meaning he doesn't condone it as he obviously hasn't seen it. |

I love Saints fans tbh. I think their just hoping we play like that against them in the next few weeks to avoid the inevitable Wigan v Wire final! |

My thoughts exactly. You won't see Maguire defending him when he goes up against the disciplinary panel.
What sort of ban does this offence carry? |

His season over (minimum 4 game ban I think), blessing in disguise for you. |
