Official Wade Graham

[SharkBoy]

Yeah I know what you mean mate. I think once he starts with us he'll come into his own. I'm pretty sure he was signed as our number one 5/8. He'll know where he stands with us, unlike at the Panthers

 

[Gil]

I can Honestly say I have never seen him play. I was hoping too see him on TV games but I guess that didn't and won't happen.

I think any player regardless of age comes to a new club with a fresh attitude. I hope he plays well for us and learns alot from his new team and coaching staff. Once he settles in.

I believe next season will be a good one for us.

I honestly remember in his first season thinking, 'wow this kid could be anything' he was like 17 or something. Just had a real mature head on his shoulders, and playing a dominant position at 5/8. Very talented.

A full off-season with us and he'll be right to go

anyone that plays first grade at 17 is unbelievable, i still have doubts he is our solution, i wanna be proven wrong!!

 

[SharkBoy]

Haha have faith buddy. Time will tell

 

[squiddy]

He will go great for us
IF
We can find the right combo to work with him

 

[Blix]

He scored another 2 tries yesterday.

If he had of been playing Toyota cup throughout, and had scored a million tries, he would be rated as one of the best talents coming through in a long time, but because he has been pushed up at an early age into FG, he isnt having the same impact YET.

I reckon he will have a massive future.

 

[kiwishark]

I really hope him and Kelly strike up a good combo, Kelly is the one with the world at his feet lets hope these to can rip & bust next year

 

[Sharky14]

him and kelly under 20s halves for the start of next year... or straight into 1st grade?

 

[Tiger Shark]

Graham will be straight into first grade, not sure about Kelly.

Actually Graham will be to old for 20s wont he?... not sure about Kelly.

Even if Kelly is young enough to play 20s he should be playing NSW Cup next year.

 

[Sharky14]

grahams only 19, 20 next year soo yeah hes eligable.

 

[Mark^Bastard]

According to Flano Graham will be our 5/8 and our half back will be out of Smith/Kelly/Porter (mentioned in that order). Of course things can chance in an off season.

 

[D.D]

Graham will be the future nsw 5/8 in a couple of years. i am really excited about his signing, one of the most genuine young stars in the making coming to the sharks. cant wait!!

Really? I'm glad you did, because I remember watching him and thinking "what's all the fuss about?" He had nice hands, looked solid enough but was slow. Tbh, I can't really see much that has changed.

I wondered what the fuss was over Coote too, though I thought he was a better talent because of his instincts (but he looked averagely quick and very very small at the time). Lets hope Graham kicks on just like Coote has!

To do that, I really think he needs to be partnered with someone who is quick and runs the ball well. Graham looks like a born general on the field and has nice hands but doesn't run the ball much. I honestly think by this time next season he will be perfectly capable of "controlling" a match for us from 5/8th. Its just whether he will be able to put the points on and get us wins.

According to Flano Graham will be our 5/8 and our half back will be out of Smith/Kelly/Porter (mentioned in that order). Of course things can chance in an off season.

Good to know that at this stage it sounds like all three will be with us next year.

 

[Tiger Shark]

grahams only 19, 20 next year soo yeah hes eligable.

Isnt he turning 20 in October this year ?

 

[Blix]

Isnt he turning 20 in October this year ?

Yep 20 in October which rules him out of Toyota cup (doesnt it ?)

 

[Tiger Shark]

i think so, not sure how the age rules applies exactly.

I have a feeling you can play if your turning 20 that year ?

I defs thought he was going to be a star when I saw him a couple of years ago, he is alot like Terry Campese IMO.
