Africa, Denmark and Australia from 2007-2009 indicated that Whittmore
is is class striker who knows where the net is. "Whittmore is a very
deadly striker.
He knows how to slip off his marker. He has good pace, power,
precision, shows composure in the box and is clinical in his
finishing", the former senior national team goalkeeper said of the
Oilers top scorer who netted in 14 goals for his club.
Whittmore who had arrived from Asia when the league was in its sixth
