Farewell JWH

[Eggspert]

I can understand you are disappointed he's in this predicament again but you are totally unreasonable - he's been suspended for 27 weeks but given 300 weeks of heart and soul, blood sweat and tears to our club - what have you done warrior?

I'm no super star champ....just played local A grade before injuries got too much to handle.

JWH doesn't play for free...hes an important well payed player who cant work out how to stay on the field & help his team....i've got no confidence in him in a high stakes finals game to stuff our season.

Unlike some i put the Team first & couldn't care less about individual players who come & go.

Everything with this guy the last couple of years is so f****g boring & tedious with his actions.

Heart, blood, sweat, tears you say? He must be the only NRL player to do that for his club apparently.

Give me Mini, Ricko, Aubo, Toops, Cords Friendy any day.

[Eggspert]

Quite a few are getting nervous at our rise to second after relentlessly attacking Robbo just because of his political views

Calm down, don't wet the bed again with your early excitement.

This is our best shot with this team & probably last in a while.

We haven't changed our 1 from 22 odd stat against the Storm & Panthers yet.

Let's see if Robbo can hopefully, finally change that.

[The Sack]

Hopefully he'll be sweet.

The officials today were ridiculous, penalising any tackles that were slightly hard or hitting around the chest. The MRC should show a cooler head.

Was the ripple effect from the Crighton non sinbinning against the Warriors. We were always going to be made the scapegoat.

[Bates]

Well what can you say...I've mentioned before.

Will go down as a great club man..the most capped Rooster ever. Was our most feared player.

But was selfish as all f**k. Not the smartest player to play for this great club. Only took 12min back from another suspension to enforce that view again.

Just when we need him the most just before finals he cant help himself & looks gone for another long stiint.

Has become a liability now which is a sad way to end his Rooster carrer...All the best JWH.

I reckon Uncle Nick would have the Big Dog in his top 10 all time Roosters.

So which team do you really support?

[Billy Gunn]

He just came back from a grade 2 careless high tackle 3rd offence - so if the previous 2 offences drop off which they do after 12 months then this would be deemed a second offence? - 2 weeks early plea or 3 weeks if challenged at the judiciary and unsuccessful.

If you are correct we can manage for two weeks. If you compare it to Stephen Creighton's shoulder which gave RTS the wobbly legs

That's great, maybe I do too. Don't know atm.

I tell you who I do respect is players who put the club first before themselves. Players who are there at the end knowing they gave their all in helping thier team succeed. Not watching from the stands.

JWH lasted just 12min after coming back from a long suspension. He will go again.

What's his use these days?

[Carlos Parra]

Shouldn't be more than a grade 1 at best, 2 to 3 weeks.

And somehow we're supposed to be ecstatic with that possibility.

[Carlos Parra]

I think he may have gone on a season or two too long. There used to be a finesse to his brutality, now it just seems he's trying to prove he's still the big dog in the yard by dishing out hard hits that almost always goes wrong.

There's no way his hit today was deliberate.

As night follows day....

I don't think JWH is selfish. I believe in my heart that he loves the club! The game is changing and the Big Dog is still your old school enforcer who treads that fine line. Intimidation is still a part of the game however the game is slowly moving towards a safer more skilful brand of RL.

Eventually imo the skillset of players including your Props will be broader with less emphasise on big hits and aggression.. I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually only see 2 players allowed to make a tackle. It's the way of the modern world with fear of litigation and the need to make the game safer for juniors.

So in this day and age of so many incorrect calls is it better to play at the start or end of the week. Start of the week the refs have forgotten everything from last weekend. End of the week the refs have had a chance to read Annesley’s essays on what you need to correct from earlier games.

[Inflictor]

JWH selfish??? LOL

FM we have some FDC supporters.

FFS

[Rocky Rhodes]

So so disappointing...like clockwise he gets suspended around the same time of each yr too. Last yr it was one round earlier against the tigpies...cost us any chance then and maybe now.

Roosters legend here...but unfortunately the common league folk (supporters of other teams) will see his legacy as been just a on field thug. And like clockwork, let's hope Joey M don't go down in the next two weeks.

[roosterchook]

Great to be on 2nd hope we can stay there. As for JWH his reputation proceeds him so I expect the MRC to throw the book at him because he’s showing them he’s learning nothing from his suspensions so they don’t have any real choice but to clamp down on him. I get the impression the MRC will do anything given the chance, to put a spanner in our works and Jarred has handed it to them on a golden platter. What’s wrong with the guy why he can’t learn to adjust his technique or is he just plain brain dead?

[HunchoRooster]

Wouldn't say he's selfish... braindead maybe. Obviously a legend but farrk me the mind boggles how one can be so reckless.

It was on Sammy Verrills aswell. One of the good guys. Just weird. He'll get 3 or 4 weeks with his history.
