Quote: SaintsFan "Yet Wheeler was on fire in the early part of the season.'"
He played well in a few games (against weaker defences). But he was not "on fire". If he were we'd have to find some new phrase to describe Roby.
Wheeler isn't a centre. He's a stand-off. But he's not as good as Gaskell so at best he's on the bench. But worse still he's too inconsistent. And we're always a dice roll away from yet another injury - which seems to set him back weeks every time.
We can't afford to waste time here. The kid has had far more opportunities than most players. If he isn't cutting it by now he probably never will.
