Should Ward not be due back soon? 12 weeks was it not, injured in round 4 next week round 16 and two CC rounds. Reckon that's 14. Anybody heard anything.

Not heard anything. He could help save us if he can stay injury free

We have missed him massively IMO

I've heard that Ward may be out for much longer than we were originally told, due to a second op. Not sure if there's anything in it though.

They were living in cuckoo land with the original timescale . The rumour i hear is he may not play again this season .

If that's true then it's time to get shut. Good player but body not upto to the rigours of being a pro rugby player.

When is Wellington due to be back in the boots?

Yep,too true.Very good player but time to say goodbye.

Get shut? I'm sure that would send a great message to any players you want to attract.

He's missed big chunks of almost every season. I wouldn't get rid but he should be offered a contract more reflective of his likely contribution. We can't keep paying first 17 wages to someone who generally plays as many games as a third reserve.

Does anybody actually know when he is due back or is it all rumors that he wont play again this season.
If the guy can get his body & mind fit he is a class act and it can't be underestimated how much he is missed in the side. Maybe his body isnt up to it, maybe he'll go on a run of 30 games. Personally i hope it is the latter

We moved Garbutt on supposedly due to the amount of time he spent injured - why should Ward get any better treatment?
