I said it before, when he got hit, he stood up smiling at Dwyer and that's when I started liking him. Didn't he take a hit from Gibbs as well??

Went to school with JWH, always a nice bloke, but don't get him angry.

I like JWH, plays the game how it's meant to be played-tough. Glad to see he backed Dwyer.
Strange….in the other thread JWH was/is a low life grub
Cred to him....wish he was a tiger/blue/aussie

Maybe Iam old and Cynical, but a lot easier to make these calls when you have won, but in saying that he didnt have to say anything. Anyway happy ending, no charge and free to fight another battle

I was impressed earlier this year when the SMH did their player's poll. When they asked who the hardest player was, the consesus was Gallen or Petero, but JWH for Benji. Made me think maybe there was more to him that met the eye.

"Gibbs " ??? He was a tackling Machine .. Who didnt he tackle …. Poor bugger was too tired and fell when SKD stepped past him to get that match winning try .. If Gibbs wasnt tired he would have stopped SKD in his tracks.
On JWH , if he did say what the article reports than he has won my respect even though he is not a Tiger..

….and he goes to get up as soon as possible after the biggest hit of the year, eventually up after 10 or 20 seconds
Some that like to lie down and take a dive have no self respect, would still be down
JWH plays the game the way its supposed to be played

Never ever a penalty…cant believe people are stating this.
It was just a good old fashioned HIT. Moments like this are what Rugby League is all about.
JWH earns a big tick in my book for the way he has handled the situation I'll retract my earlier statement about him being an a-hole....still a thug though lol.

I have never really taken any notice of Birds game but watching his past two games I cant get over how much of an actor he is. He did the same thing last week and got up and gave a wink to his teammates.
If I held any respect it would have been lost right there

Mate…what you been watching all season
Its been a penalty anything that connects with the head for several years now, regardless of how hard or soft or how much of a non event it is

He got cleared. Let the Roosters worry about it now!!!

If he was cleared has any reason been given why it wasn't play on as he got the ball cleanly and didn't knock on. The scrum should never had been packed we should have had a play the ball.

I agree with Ink.
Personally I thought it was a great shot, but the precedence is 95% of the time such a hit would be a penalty in the regular season. There would have been an enormous controversy if the Roosters had been awarded a penalty and kicked the winning goal with 30 sec to go.
The reason they didn't penalise is the same as the scrum fiasco - refs are too afraid to blow penalties in the attacking half when the game is on the line. They don't want to be the cause of the result. Same reason they don't call offsides or marker penalties in golden point, even if Robbie Farah pulled 2 or 3 unrewarded.
