Looks a decent player, think he may cause opposition's 3/4 lines some problems!

Think he wont play when shenton returns

Good step and difficult to get ahold of, but pretty lightweight, needs to bulk up imo to deal with bigger centres and avoid being bundled into touch like he was against Nero.

Wheeler is a cracking player when fit and is a better stand off, which is his natural position, than Lomax or Gaskell for me. The trouble though is his injury record and I would give it 5 games before he is injured again

Wheeler is pretty big mate, he's really well made and stocky. Some idiot saints fans have even commented on him looking overweight.

He's got great footwork, much like Martin gleeson in his prime and also pretty safe in defence but IMO he lacks that killer speed off the mark which would complement his foot work.

Just great to see him string three games together which must be a first for him.

I'm still not convinced he's big enough really to deal with other bigger centre's in defence certainly, but that remains to be seen. He has outstanding footwork and I agree lacks the pace to go all the way, but get a quality winger on his outside and he could create countless tries by creating space for them with his feetwork.

who was the saints player which did the run that cullen called bridgesque but was more like tomkins style of run?

I was really impressed with the glimpses of attacking play Wheeler showed last night if he continuous in this vein of form he should be looking at a place in the England side.

Think it was wheeler mate.

Very impressed by his footwork and although he was dumped into touch by Nero (cracking effort IMO), i think that was down to a lack of balance as opposed to a lack of strength.

He was showing a very powerful hand-off at certain points.

Like to see him get a good run

looked good. saints fans go mental on their boards though at his injury record. nigel wright mk2.

That was wheeler mate.

Wigan have tried to sign him once and also linked to him recently.

I thought Wheeler looked as if he would be more suited to playing Left Centre. He's got a good step but kept stepping to much inside for me. Could he be a replacement for Carmont? I'd be happy with that!
