It was interesting to hear Aaron Woods really praising Wade Graham on Triple M a few weeks back... he said it's like having a coach or an extra player with Wade out on the field given how well he reads the play in both attack and defence. It was more than the stock standard compliments they give to every old teammate, he went out of his way to say it.

I know that doesn't change anything regarding his contract situation. Hopefully he's happy to stick around for a bargain deal.
Wade replied with "Aaron... He's an okay bloke with a nice beard..."

Said Aaron was just like a WW2 Italian tank.
4 reverse gears 1 forward ;)

Went quite well tonight, was busy in attack and defense , he is improving- give me Wade over extending Nikora

The second rower wrap around and run down the wing play in the first half was interesting, I was thinking Wade in space what sort of pace can he show, not that much ha ha but he did well and didn't panic with a rush play

hasn't done alot of kicking for a while and that ball off the side of the boot showed but there were a few botched kicks from both teams, terrible slippery conditions

You could see the Canadian connection through his missus when he slid 20m like a hockey puck at the end of the run though

Wade storming down the wing like a prime Luke Covell brought a big grin to my face.
I'm not sure what was more surprising... that he was on the wing or the amount of time it took for him to be run down.

Def can can add value to the team…..comedy value, whenever one of the boys are down and unhappy can ask Wade to take a kick!!!
Lol. I think we get the worst result possible by having Wade. Wade does not contribute much and it looks like somehow crowds the left side. Then Wilton seems to have gone back.

Lose-lose.

Yep
Wilton was finding some great form on that left edge before Wade returned
Was non existent when he came on off the bench agaij yesterday
Would still let Wade walk for 2023

Just me or did Wade look a bit uninterested in the presser?
Or maybe I’m just reading to much into it??

Was thinking exactly the same this morning in relation to Wilton having diminished since Graham’s return. Would be far happier with Wilton starting…..as he does deserve on form….where he had been killing it.

Graham has been gifted 3 weeks so far and still hasn’t been anywhere the player that Wilton has been at the start of the season…at what point does form (and potential) not win out ?

If Wilton isn't playing better at the moment than Graham you can't blame Graham.
