    Unfortunately yes. Have no idea of his stats but I would suggest that he would not have played many games before the big "thanks, dont call me, I will call u" chat!

    Nice to see Leon Bott making the last comment in that above newspaper extracts. He was the NRL version of a 'one-hit-wonder'. He never struck me as a reader of the 'Leader'...

    Wade has already played for NSW a few times. Albeit, in jrns. He was captain in a very dominate side that smashed those Qlders. Played 5/8, had Foran in centres outside him plus a stack of blokes who have made a significant mark in the NRL. To answer your question about NSW senior, it's a...

    I was watching the NYC live today at Skilled, and was very impressed by the front rower. He made several big runs, and scored a crucial try. Given our situation with props leaving and coming, does anyone have the background or relevant info on this big unit? I'm keen to keep an eye on his...

    On the flip side, Darren Britt never made a jrn or senior rep side EVER, until he was named as starting prop for Australia. I understand not all rep players excel in Snr games, but Wade has been touted as something special for ages, and I would love for him to be given time in the 6 to learn...

    :Yes: the Penrith was excellent as well. Both young halves played well today, especially Wade. Gee it helps when the forwards dominate, let's hope the halves get that much needed confidence from today's win!

    I know it's a great prospect to have all three young halves. IMO, Wade is at least 2 years advanced in development then Chad. I really like Chad, but he is not ready both physically or mentally. Wade has a lot more maturity and growth needed before he is going to be fully ready, but at least...

    Wrong AB. Adam Reynolds was half back. I said under 17s side when Wade was captain and 5/8! NSW side also included Gards (winger, had a blinder scored 24 points- 2 try's, 8 goals) Foran, Ben Jones, Lachlan Coote, Tariq Sims (played on wing in that game, lol) and plenty other NSW players with...

    Wade Graham was captain and 5/8 of NSW 17's, Keiran Foran played in the same side as a centre. Not bad for a back rower to put the current NZ 5/8 in centres.

    It was only a few years ago that AK and Wade played for NSW jrns in the HALVES together! They were, and still should be regarded as the best halves in their generation in NSW. I think your drawing a long-bow to suggest Flanno got Wade as a potential back rower, he was desperate for a halve...

    Ive said it before, but will say it again... Why would the sharks buy a 20yr old halve and then half way through his first season turn him into a back rower??? I must be crazy, but surely this is a stupid idea. He needs time and trust to learn his game. Good young halves do not turn up...

    Interesting discussion from Gal tonight on OneHD Footy Show. He mentioned the kicking game as being poor, but said Wade has been playing and training his hardest and Wade has been really disappointed that things he has tried in games have not worked out. Sounded like Gal really had a lot of...

    To paraphrase Gus (tool), he went on about "Gals everywhere, doing everything. Sharks need impact, Gal would help team more, by not taking every hit up, and conserve energy for a big impact play. Gal needs to pick his mark and a defender in opposition to target as Hannett was all over him every...

    It appears Flanno will keep him in the halves ATM. Not trying to crucify Wade, but I have some massive concerns at NRL level. He is not appearing to dominate calls and organise his side. He looks the best when he is running the ball. Cannot recall him putting many blokes into gaps with cut outs...
