From one extreme to the other there. Wardy has his head so far up his own arse he can't compile an objective report without referring to "that momentous day in October 1978, when I, a mere student, and 14 other passion filled men defeated the greatest team that ever lived". And he NEVER criticises anybody!!Quote:

Don't necessarily disagree, but at least he has to be respected as a rugby man, not just a whichever sport you want hack.Quote:

Still goes to most Pats games for the record. Don't read the indo so won't comment on him as a journalist
Wasn't even getting at the eL reporting side at all - but if the players/press corp know he'd rather be covering football, and that's the sport he know's best, probably makes the critical reports harder to take for them rather than if it would've been a former player/coach saying it.Quote:
