Pick 53: Jack Graham

[BrisTiger24]

Looks slow, fat and disinterested.

Given up way too easily on chases. Tackles.dont stick when he gets there.

Would be best for him and us.if he pursues another opportunity

 

[Tigertool]

15 touches & some tackles. Bang on what a normal game is for him.

Of Grahams 116 games, he’s probably played about 106 games similar to what he put out today.

 

[crackertiger]

Agree, looked lazy today. If he is injured then why would we play him ahead of other kids today?

 

[Tigers of Old]

Others going past him at a rate of knots.

3rd least TOG. Think the club realises it too.

Move on.

Time has come for sea change.

 

[saigon tiger]

We need pace. Jack has played his part but his lack of pace has made him dispensable.

 

[UKTiger]

Another of our premiership players who have lost the drive that took us to the pinnacle. We got probably one in three good games out of him this season and the rest - meh'

 

[tigertim]

What clubs would want him and what would you get for him?

That was a couple years ago, should have done the deal while he was worth something.

Nothing has changed with Jacks game other than the team being less successful.

Not much. Midfielders either need to win it in close or be get and run midfielders.
He is turtle slow. There's no explosive part to hid game. Good runner but no pace.
2024 footy is speed and pressure

Some of the posts here are ridiculous. Sure, he's a little slow, but he brings physicality and (without knowing the stats) would have to be second behind Dusty in F50 disposal efficiency... an area where we have been poor all year.

I'm not against shopping him around to see what his trade value is, but my preference is to keep.

 

[Harry]

If we can't trade him out or delist him then he should play vfl next year. Others should get preference over him.

I think this is wrong. We are one of the better teams for scores per inside 50's. I am sure I saw a stat in this regard last week.

But we are a poor overall kicking team - last in kicking efficiency. But that might be because we kick longer (we are 3rd in overall metres gained) in general than other teams.

Whaever, Graham is either very good or very poor. To big a gap between his best and worst.

 

[T-Shirt Tommy]

Considering all the trade talk about Graham last year and him touring Ports facilities, surprised that he hasn't come up in talks this year.

Maybe he's been promised a positional change under Ooze?

Maybe nobodies shown any interest in him?

The issue is he's bog average at best and he's either at, or past, his ceiling which unfortunately is 15 touches as a mid or 10 as a HF.

He is wasting a spot on the field. It's a shame no one has come looking this trade period.

given that glowing endorsement , its more a surprise than a shame no one has come looking

 

[Smoking Aces]

Ziebell gave him a big wrap in one of his interviews. I expect alot more midfield time next year for Graham.

It is midfield or bust for Jack imo.

We have never used a tagger in the past under Hardwick
so it will be interesting to see whether Yze likes to have one or not. Jack is the obvious one to play that role
