Whiteley's record across 22 appearances reflects a player used primarily in a game-management role off the bench, contributing steadily rather than in bursts. His carry and tackle averages are modest per match, but his peak outings — reaching six carries and five tackles in a single game — show he can step up his involvement when called upon. The balance between his carrying metres and defensive output suggests a utility forward comfortable doing the unglamorous work that shifts momentum late in matches.
