Graham has his kicking improved.

If memory serves me right at the pre-draft meeting in November, Miller commented on the kicking styles of some of the potential draftees. Some he said had faults that couldn't be fixed while others he said can be worked on. Seeing Graham was selected and I think was one of the talls nominated to be picked, it is obvious that the Football Group believe they can fix Graham's kicking.

No doubt his current style is awkward but at 18 and 200 cm's, it is a worthwhile exercise!

That's the way I remember it, too, Cutter. IIRC, McEntee was fatally flawed and I don't reckon we'd have taken him ahead of Graham. McKinnon was not on our list.

I'll be very interested to compare that trio in a few years.

Craig's actually not been critical and in fact I read his post as being supportive of the kid.

Northstar, i am in a positive pre season all loving mood. ;)  :grouphug

PS i have the knives all sharpened tho and ready for the season to start.  :hihi :hihi

If some posters think i'm gunning for the Angus, you guys are sadly mistaken and it is a shame that some think that is the case,  cos i actually dont mind the kid he looks a likely type, raw but has a go, just didnt like his kicking style but if you guys think i am after him you wait till the season starts and the you know whos are at it again.
Then you will see assasinations!! :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi
