grahams not stupid. He will think about going back but won't. Unless they chuck stupid money at him which I doubt as gould is in charge he will be loyal and he looks to be enjoying it here and I can see him, chad, gards all together for a very very long time and hopefully AK too.

Every time Graham has run the ball he's looked threatening and broken the line in the majority of instances. That in itself I would have thought has shown that he's made the right decisions on when to run and when to pass etc. Compare that to Barrett who on the majority of the occasions he made his telegraphed runs was hammered. Consider also that Graham was placed out of position in the first 8 rounds of the season at halfback.

It's just a matter of producing a more consistent output throughout the year; that comes through the collective form of the team. Give him players in motion (options) and that will occur IMO.

Yes, but he is denying his centre and winger of any quality ball. Running every time is not the answer.

I know there's not much difference between the positions these days but I don't like Graham with 7 on his back - I think Kelly would be better with 7. We've never seen Lockyer with a 7 on his back so the argument that the positions "Are the same" isn't entirely correct. And while I'm in no way at all casting similarities between Graham and Lockyer, I'm just saying I think he is better at five-eight and I think Kelly could do well in the 7 - presto early 2000s style

Soward #6 Half Back, Hornby plays the Five-eighth role
Benji #6 Half back, Lui plays the more well a nothing role

and i think Locky plays a Halfback/Five-eighth role more half back though as he is the dominate half.

IMO.

Thurston is also really a 5/8.

Can't remember if I ever posted this... I guess CRONU12A can still work if you squash the 2 into an L :)

The original by snapper? I won't without his permission.

And just in case I'm not understanding... I meant the photo used for that poster is snapper's...
