Dave Ward - just no
« on: Saturday 23-Mar-2019, 17:26* »
We may have had a LOT of problems in this second half but Dave Ward is just a total liability.

Two ludicrous penalties given away in 2 mins. And he’s chippy with it.

Just awful.

Used to really like Wardy, but the sinner he goes the better

benefits he provides are not outweighing the cost he causes in more and more games now

There are occasions where I just don’t think Dave knows the laws of the game. His penalties are so often of the utterly blatant and mindless variety!

Was not to blame for that abysmal second half

Yes, which is exactly what I said.

But he is a liability almost every time he comes on now - and it was his fault we nearly lost the LBP.

Only reason he's not more responsible for the second half is that he didn't come on any earlier!

Appallingly useless at the lineout, astonishingly ill-disciplined, and braindead.

Yes, but rather than coming in and making things better, he made them worse. We didn’t need a gamechanger, just a calming hand, and he was like a bull in a china shop. He used to offer consistent work in the loose to overcome his poor basics at lineout. Now he’s a liability in both.

Wardy as a game changer? - unfortunately this season we fall away when he comes on.

To be fair he made a pretty positive change when he came on against Bath away.

Apparently off to Ealing at the end of the season

Yes Yorkshire can not afford him now. Hope it works for him as three seasons ago and further back he was a real worker despite his throwing which has always been a problem

Not to that extent. No-one is as consistently awful in those areas.
