RoCK blocks were an important tool in proving Broue’s abelian defect group conjecture for symmetric groups that was proved in two papers (Chuang-Kessar, Chuang- Rouquier). Turner then generalised this to finite general linear groups. I will talk about my own work on RoCK blocks for other finite classical groups and the hope that RoCK blocks also exist for double covers of symmetric groups.
