I thought Wellow was an extremely talented fullback because he made the role look effortless. He was always there just when he needed to be, in attack or defence, and it was years before I remember him dropping a bomb or fumbling a kick. I can't think of anything that would make him a more talented fullback. Pace isn't a talent; it's a genetic inheritance. Some of the fastest rugby league players have had little else going for them.
He's been the rock at Saints for years and we will miss both his talent and his enthusiasm for his club and the game as a whole. I hope that the next phase of his life is as successful and rewarding for him as his playing career has been. It's good to know he will still be around the club once he has recovered from his operation (which I hope is successful).
Thanks for the memories Wello!

Wello could read the game so well which compensated for that lack of yard in pace hence the name "Mr Radar".
His lack of pace was really down to his problem of not able to get accelaration from a standing start, once he got going he was quite quick. I don,t think a slow full back could score 230+ tries.
The club has been blessed with great pivotal players at 1,6,7,9 and 13, we are coming to the end of the era as we struggle for stability and quality in these position.
Wello had set the standard very high for the no 1 position over the years will it be replicated again at the club, we don,t know.

Wish him all the best for the future. Been a pleasure (and quite often a pain) watching him over the years. A great competitor who never gave up.
