Jared Waerea-Hargreaves has tonight been successful in having his Grade 1 Dangerous Contact – Head/Neck charge overturned at the NRL Judiciary.

The Club entered a plea of Not Guilty for Waerea-Hargreaves following his charge from an incident in the 11th minute of the Roosters’ Round 17 match against the North Queensland Cowboys, which the NRL Judiciary accepted at a hearing earlier this evening.

Consequently, Waerea-Hargreaves will be available to take his place in the Roosters side for this Saturday’s Round 18 home fixture against the Newcastle Knights at the SCG.
