In any other employment they could terminate his employment through frustration of contract. If not just retire him through injury surely insurance would cover this as in football? It's a long long time since he played last and still no mention of when he could be back

We signed Sam Walters and Jarrod O'conner around this time last year, ages before Trent left

For some reason I thought it was this off season, god knows why!

If Ward could keep injury free and back to full fitness he would be a great asset to any team. When he plays Leeds look a different team. Unfortunately you cannot pay top dollar for a chap who plays less than a dozen games per year. What would any team pay for a player who is 27 spend more time on the treatment table than on the pitch. I remember Sinfield saying when he first came to the club there is a lot of money sat in the stands, out injured. How many games has Ward played since Sinfield returned. No more than half a dozen, possibly one or two more. There is a big decision to be made. On the one hand he will have a value to what he thinks he is worth, the club will have a different value, hopefully not but it would be hard to see Ward agreeing to less money than he is on now. Maybe the club should be discussing this with him now, possible oaching role and plays when fit, so much per game etc.

For the younger ones on here, a dozen is 12,

He’s just signed for Hull kr

Where else could it be ?
