His Toyota Cup and Dally M highlights appear little different. He's a great support player. He's great in open field.
Fullback would maximise those opportunities.
He's not a genuine 5/8th.

The comparison with Glenn Stewart is spurious. Stewart plays more centrally and mostly before the line. Graham is in receipt of the ball on the far left edge. His impact is negligible. Therefore his ability to bend the line is the primary consideration in judging his performance.
Gallen makes...
Glenn Stewart isn't judged on his impact bending the line. If he were he'd be a dud.
Graham has no raw explosive power. Tupou does and Bukuya used to possess it.
Incisive ball-runners are able to challenge their opponents and puncture the line.
Graham's penchant for running towards the...
Yes. Make him five eighth.
He's role in the team needs to be clear. Him playing at lock may obscure that objective.
I don't have any faith in Flannologic either.
Get Wade Graham out of the second row.

Raper moved Bird out of the halves into the second row. It made sense. He was quick and light on his feet. He couldn't kick, pass or structure a play.
Graham is an...

Good idea.
Best is an excellent ball-runner and looked likely to break the line every time he had the ball last night.
Gardner has been busy with his footwork but has been easily contained by opposition defences this season.
Hmm..... modern halves play has more or less evolved into a split halves system. I would think Johns, Fittler and co. are not necessarily in approval of this development but are merely stating a matter of fact.
Modern halves are far inferior to their counterparts of the 80's and 90's when most...
Hmm....
Townsend has one bad game last start and all of a sudden by popular opinion he's rank average and should be behind Robson in the pecking order?
Why has one game changed the views of a number of people ever so sharply? A raw knee-jerk reaction to a sudden disappointment shouldn't be...
Short, sharp witticisms of the SHARKSTER kind are fine. They lighten the mood of the place whilst not getting the thread off-track.
A lot of the other banter can be repetitive, drawn-out, not particularly creative nor relevant.
