Biography

Wheelhouse, who attended Holy Cross College in Ryde, is the brother of Eastern Suburbs player Brett, who featured in first-grade in 1990.

In the 1993 NSWRL season, Wheelhouse played in five first-grade games for Eastern Suburbs. Following a 0-46 loss to St. George in round 12, which Wheelhouse started from the bench, he was named on the wing in the next four rounds.[2] In those four games he replaced Brendan Hall as the club's goalkicker, having filled that role in the reserves.[3] He ended the season as the fullback in Eastern Suburbs' President's Cup premiership winning side.[4]
