How many weeks for JWH ?

The game is tough as it is with out those shoulder charges.

It wasn't a shoulder charge. Neither are most 'shoulder charges' penalised. The rule is crap and how it's enforced is a joke. His head on Luke Kelly R2 was harder, but because the shoulder didn't hit the head it's not a penalty, and because his arm was out it wasn't a shoulder charge. What a joke of a rule.

He should get 0 weeks.

Just saw it.

He's definitely thrown the shoulder in. His arm isn't wrapping around, it's just sort of flopped down next to him as if he thought about wrapping it around but didn't get the chance.

He'll do time. 1-2 weeks probably.

Oh really? Is it the always the players head that cops it when it happens?

Partisan moron.
Funny coming from "I Bleed Moron"

You're as biased as they come.

We were equally shafted last week and still put you pretenders away with no ball.

Clearly that still hurts.

Until they clean up their act, the Rorters deserve to lose every game they play but after watching the highlights, they should probably feel hard done by after that shepherd ruling. That was a farce. The defending player was never physically impeded and they were never going to make it to Tupou.

Try again, Mongoloid.

Leads with the shoulder and wraps the arm at the end. It's not very different from the game is trying to rub out. 2 weeks, 3 depending on his loading.

A shoulder charge is is when the shoulder is tucked into the body.

It's amazing how many people don't know the difference yet.

I don't know what his loading is like for this but I reckon at worst he'll get off with an early guilty plea. Might serve a week with loading and all that crap.

Definitely won't be charged as a shoulder charge though.

These f**king idiots think that since the shoulder charge has gone that we're playing by rugby union rules. They don't realise that league shoulder charge interpretation is significantly different from the yawnion one.

His tackle was wholly legal and if he sits out even a week it would be a f**king disgrace.

0 weeks if I had any say in it.

Also a big shout out to all the Roosters fans who booed and jeered while Stewart was laying on the ground. He was quite clearly hit in the head (legally or otherwise).
Always classy out at the SFS.

He deserves to be fined by the Roosters for stupidity, he clearly intentionally aimed his shoulder at Stewart's head. If the f**kwit can't camouflage his intentions better than flailing an arm around like a traffic cop he needs to stop trying

If Jason king got 1 week for his "play on" tackle last week then there is no way he'll get off. Going by that I think he'll get 4 weeks

Well I feel its a legit shot and I reckon Stuart milked it as well at the sacrafice of being out for the rest of the game, JWH shouldn't get anything but NRl will probably give him 4-6 weeks.
