I too have had this problem - rolling wrists, and getting flat and inside. I can only reiterate the drills already given - particular important is a one-piece takeaway. Keep the butt of the club pointin at your belly button until the hands get hip high, and then simply FOLD THE RIGHT ELBOW, dont even think about any active wrist action.
