Official Wade Graham

[HrvatskaDomovino]

Get Wade Graham out of the second row.

He has the physique of an Owen Craigie. He makes no impact charging on the edges.

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 artisan. He's poised. He's excelled given the opportunity to use numbers on an edge.

Exhibit A: Roosters Rd 24 2011. He created 3 tries: He scored himself, played a long ball to the winger and fed Gallen a flat ball.

What is your argument exactly? Aside from your reactionary refrain.

 

[Gards]

I'm still confused about your original post

 

[hamsy44]

So you are saying play him as 5/8 yeah? While he could he is better suited to being a roaming lock - attack on the edge of both sides of the ruck where he can either go himself or has options on both the inside or outside.

Won't happen because our coach does not understand how to get more then one player going at the line at the one time.

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.

 

[slide rule]

The white Owen Craigie.

 

[snowman]

Haha. Wade will always be known as the white craigie now

 

[djhabib]

Yep

 

[vicsharkfan]

this, he should be lock, no two ways about it. I've been saying this for a while now, he is the definition of what a look is. He is big, strong, offloads, can ball play to a degree and has a decent kicking game

Stick gal in the front row, no point playing prior for 18 minutes (good work again flanno) wade to lock and stick bird in wades position

 

[djhabib]

Definitely the definition of what a look is. So damn fine looking.

Wade Craigie in da house

Makes more impact than Glenn Stewart. And Glenn Stewart has been a phenomenal player.

Graham's numbers are fine. He's no monster but he's big enough and his speed makes him powerful.

I know you all bar up over Wade .
BUT if he really IS so good , surely we'd be scoring dozens of tries down his side , True ?
Drifts and stuffs up the Centres space , How is that Great ?
Bring back a Fit hard running HARMAN 2nd rower in Lewis instead .
Enter the Wolfpack

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 sideline is emblematic of his inadequate physique.
