Can't believe we only got two straight matches out of him before injury jinx hits him again?
This lad is a talent but can we keep him beyond this season?

When did he get it? In training? Whilst reaching for a third bar of Galaxy after training?

Lance played well the other night, I wouldn't be too concerned about Wheeler.

I spoke to wheeler yesterday morning. He could have played at a push but everyone agreed it's best not to risk it.

That's how it should be at this stage of the season, no need to push him too hard for his body to react negatively. We had enough cover in that position last night as the result and stats proved.

I'd go the other way. Unless he physical incapable, I'd play him. He needs to toughen up and he needs to be hammering the fitness side of things.

If we can get 2 games out of 3 using Wheeler I would be happy. Walshy seems to be adaptable and didn,t seem to be effected with Lance playing along side of him.
Somewhere along the line Washy will miss a couple of games and we could end up with Wheeler and Lance, so a bit of rotation in the halves might be something the team will have to ajust too accordingly.

That's why you spend all day on this forum and not coaching the Saints.

He does need to work on his conditioning. He wasn't in good shape against Warrington or Hull. Hard work is what Gary needs, not wrapping in cotton wool.
