The English international was never going to be suspended but was intent on clearing his name on Tuesday night.
He did so by convincing the three-man panel that he never intentionally hurt St George Illawarra centre Zac Lomax by twisting his leg during the Roosters' 24-16 win over the Dragons last Thursday night.
Even if he'd been found guilty, Hall would only have accrued 75 carryover points for the grade-one offence.
Hall was earlier on Tuesday retained on the Roosters wing, deputising for the injured Brett Morris, for Thursday night's blockbuster against Melbourne at the SCG.
