Wasnt there a knee or kicking problem for Hindy on Lockyer when he scored a try against us at Suncorp earlier this season. From memory he got off.
ofcourse nothing in it.....just his knees went into goodwins head and knocked the guy out ..sweet no problem at all......
His stock has just risen in my books.
Lmao at the person who said "accidental chicken wing" I guarantee you if that was a Melbourne player they would have been sent off.
Michael Ennis backs case for Jarryd Hayne

JARRYD Hayne has found an unlikely ally in Bulldogs hooker Michael Ennis, who has warned of a supporter backlash if the brilliant fullback is banned from next Sunday's grand final.
As Hayne waits to learn his fate from the NRL match review committee over a kneeing incident in Friday night's win against the Bulldogs, Ennis declared the Eels star should be there for next Sunday's showpiece event.
"If you take Jarryd Hayne out of the grand final you probably take 30,000 fans away from ANZ Stadium," Ennis said. "As a fan, it's great to see him playing the footy he is.
"It added to the atmosphere and the excitement for us (players) to have players like him on the field.
"There's too much adrenalin running through me on the field to know what was really happening there, and Jarryd was just probably trying to stop the try.
"But if I was in Jarryd's position and someone was going for the corner and something happened to me, I'd hate to miss a grand final for it."
Hayne was placed on report for kneeing Bulldogs winger Bryson Goodwin as he scored a try in the fourth minute of Friday night's 22-12 victory over the Dogs.
NRL match review commissioner Greg McCallum will determine today if Hayne will be charged.
McCallum was unwilling to comment on the incident yesterday, but Hayne would be free to play in the grand final if he received a Grade 1 charge and took an early guilty plea.
Outspoken Melbourne Storm chief executive Brian Waldron also refused to place pressure on the judicial system.
Twelve months ago, Storm captain Cameron Smith missed the grand final through suspension.
"We literally have no comment on it," Waldron said. "We shouldn't even comment on matters relating to our own club before NRL officials, let alone other clubs."
However, former Test forward Mark Geyer said Hayne risked being rubbed out.
"If you take the emotion out of it, I want to see Jarryd Hayne play in a grand final as much as anybody because he's a gun," Geyer said.
"But that didn't look real good. I must confess, if it was a comp game next week I think we would all be feeling a bit different about it."
Andrew Johns said he would be floored if Hayne was forced to miss the grand final.
