Best Moments of 2021: JWH Hits 250 Game Milestone

Season 2021 will certainly live long in the memories of the Roosters faithful with so many moments that stood out in what was truly a unique year in Club history.

We've gone through the memory bank and selected ten of the best moments from the year in chronological order. 

There was no better way to celebrate 250 games in Red, White and Blue for Jared Waerea-Hargreaves than with a victory highlighted by the side's tenacious defence. 

Round 20 Match Highlights: Roosters vs Eels

The three-time Premiership winner, New Zealand international and Roosters enforcer became just the fifth player to play 250 games in the Club's esteemed history, and his teammates were intent on celebrating the milestone with the two competition points.

The final result saw the Tricolours towel up the Parramatta Eels in Mackay in a 28-nil shutout, keeping their opponents scoreless for the second time since 2013.

The Roosters rebounded from a scrappy, scoreless first half-hour as Josh Morris and Sitili Tupouniua went over in quick succession, with a trademark bone-rattling hit from Waerea-Hargreaves forcing an error earlier in the piece to help the side to a 12-nil lead at the break.

JWH's Massive Hit Forces an Error

Sam Walker touched down off the back of a well-executed sweep just after half-time, before Daniel Tupou added took advantage of quick hands to dive over in the corner and ice the result with ten minutes remaining. 

The Bondi Wall held off wave after wave of attack from the Eels, while Joseph Manu put the cherry on top with a try from a quick tap, capping off an emphatic 28-nil victory to the Roosters.
