When I say waste of time, I mean that he is playing when we could be getting gametime into others. Mick was desperate to win, so under him yes he was a stop gap. BB wants to rebuild, so under him any time he plays is a complete and utter waste of time.
I honestly think that when we have the future options ready and available then BB won't hesitate to bring them in and White will find it a lot harder to get selection. For instance, Plowman looks like taking a big step forward by playing in the NBs this week. Byrne, Jack, Charlie and others could also start to make their claims soon. But at least White is fit and available until these guys are ready i.e. he provides depth for this year which is not really a complete and utter waste of time IMO. Injuries to players delay player development to be sure, and they could be seen as time lost.
Reality always wins in the end.
