Why not just 1 or 2 Negatraits?

Yea, but the fact that so many people hated it, never took WAs, and there were sooo many different WAs tried meant it wasn't a very popular rule. BH and RS are fine, most people have little or no problem with them.

The other half loved them and took WA over any other BG,

Once again I don't understand the debate. My league made a Big Guy available to every team's roster so that every team could have at least one. THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE COMPLAINT. If you want the big guy, you hire one. If you don't like dealing with the Negatraits, don't add one to the roster. This is not a game of equal stats or balance. Otherwise, as it has been argued before, we all should play the exact same team. No variety, no flavor, no fun (IMO). If you want a game of equality and balance, then go play chess. Big guys have and hopefully always will be part of BB and the different traits add flavor. I personally had no problems with any of the old negatraits, but now this new WA keeps the big guy sucking turf for half the game... It and OFAB are the only traits we need to revisit in this coach's opinion. OH, and for the record, I play dwarfs so I don't even get an Ogre anymore (except league games) and everyone else has the big guys. If you can't handle one Ogre or Big Guy on the pitch then you need to practice more then complain about this issue.

just make a little tweak on Bonehead.
Bonehead roll must always be made before taking a action with the player or before ending the turn.
I cant wait to see a coaches face when at the end of a turn his LOS collapses just because he fails his BH roll on the Oger *har har*

Making BH worse won't make WA better, I think BH is fine. They should just admit defeat with WA. The fluff fits boneheaded for Minos and ROs just fine.

IMO, that´s plain wrong. WA are not slow and dumb.. they are fast and wild. They problem with the negatraits is, that they all depend on a single dice-roll. This way, a lucky coach gets a guy without a negatrait, while others waste every single blitz they try to make with their ogre. That´s why I prefered the old WA over any other Big Guy.. it was relieable in its way, but with a serious handicap.
