How I remember Wellsy

And this

 

[StillAtLarge]

Was sublime in North's come from behind win over the bombers in '14. It was like watching a hot knife carve through butter. Pace, footy smarts and elite disposal

 

[Rod Stroker]

Extremely talented player whose career was absolutely crippled by injury. Can only imagine the heights he reaches if he stays as injury free as Goddard has

Goddard's injury will come after retirement, chronic RSI in his index finger.

 

[Dirty_banchez]

Fremantle defense.....

More Parker magic.

 

[Pres]

2013 was his best year I reckon - particularly the last 5-6 rounds of the season. Fully fit and a complete joy to watch in full flight.

Shame we didn't make the finals that year. Could have given it a real shake.

 

[TheKanga]

Feel for him.
Probably career over.

North great.

 

[GarnerSmash]

Immense talent, poor preparer.

 

[Gaben]

Would Wells be on the top of that list? i.e of all the players who were destined to be absolute elite, has he been the one most crueled? At least of all the players still playing today?

Injuries aside, he was never destined to be absolutely elite, lacked the heart and commitment to reach and maintain that level for the appropriate amount of time.

 

[Fire]

potential that was never realised. From an observer who knows nothing about him and his situation, he looked lazy on field but also appeared to lack passion and drive for his career in general, and coasted on his natural talent.

Had flashes of brilliance like so many others and will be forgotten like so many others. Could have been a great but wasnt. He was what north got for Carey, as a pub trivia answer.

 

[Grrr]

Pretty easy really...

No goal, didn't put his hand up for the ruck contest.......
