Just back from the game. Didn’t see the incident at the time but
looks like a very petulant stamp. Not going to cause much damage
but not good full stop against a defenceless player. Deserves a
4-6 week ban for me.
If he’s found guilty of spitting then he should be banned for
the season (I didn’t see that personally). No place in rugby for
spitting at another human being.

Stamp doesn’t deserve any further sanction. Was a moronic thing
to do but a yellow was the right decision.

Thanks Scamble.
Not sure that is a “natural” action for me (in terms of the
potential spit). Combined with the stamp, I’d like to see the
club come out and ban him early for this (I’m sure others will
disagree).
At least one (maybe two) pretty disgraceful actions. To me this
is very different to punching someone face to face which should
be a yellow. This is much, much worse and either action has no
place in the game. Hopefully he’s at least strong enough to come
out and accept he’s made 1/2 errors and accept whatever
punishment is given.

If true poor from ward. Definite light step on ankle and earlier
neck roll. Spit questionable. Unlikely for a decent bloke.

Disappointed to see this behaviour from someone who’s been a
solid part of our club for years.
The spit is questionable, I don’t think it was aimed or
maliciously directed towards anyone but the neck roll and
stamp/trample is inexcusable and unfortunately deserves a ban.
The neck roll, you see him lock his arms together like a head
lock, knowing exactly what he was doing. And well the stamp,
speaks for itself. Such a shame for what was a delightful result
otherwise!

The stamp was a nasty and petty move. Gustard has said that Ward
will be spoken to. The spit doesn't look deliberate to me (a la
Rijkaard on Voller in 1990!) However, I am sure that Wardy will
be encouraged to be honest and confess if he did do it
deliberately.
Just watching the game again with a cup of tea. Have to say how
proud I am of our boys. So much petty shirt pulling, grabbing
and holding off the ball from Wasps. Not a likeable team, by any
stretch of the imagination!

Stupid behaviour from Ward. He deserves a lengthy ban

It went to TMO. He was yellow carded. End of - unless they find
the spit was deliberate (which I seriously doubt)

What a tool, the stamp was stupid enough but there is no place
for spitting.

Real shame the Club works so hard to get 80,000 and the
headlines in the press all about Dave Ward.
