Pick 53: Jack Graham

Fridgey is one of those blokes that will need a bigger year this coming season as will Ross.

1 of them most likely won't be at the RFC in 2024 be it either through requested or recommended trade.

Believe that was in early November to correct his turf toe

Jack Graham's toe surgery

"Jack's a victim of his own toughness. He battled all year with his toe issue and got to the end of the season and we gave it a rest in the hope that it would improve. We found out at the start of November that things weren't improving and we needed an intervention, and so he had some surgery. That's gone really well from all reports, he's already out of the moon boot and he'll look to start running in January and he'll have a big January/February looking to build into games at the start of the season."

I really believe Graham will go up a level next season

He has been asked to do alot of defensive work both on opposition players and defensive running
But with a stronger midfield with the drafting of Taranto & Hopper he can become more of an offensive runner and hopefully take Lamberts role and become more damaging and have a sensational year and elevate to the next level

Batting down the order I expect Graham to improve in 2023. And if he can feel his foot I expect his kicking to return to the usual very high standard.

It’s always physical.

We were smashed on transition yesterday. Graham plays a big role in stifling that. Still best 22 for me based on how we play.

Butchered it by foot but had some massive defensive moments.

Unlike others, worked without the ball.

Sums it up. Huge heart. But can really butcher it. Should get great benefit from the run. Can see him being valuable with the addition of Taranto.
 
He was very good defensively and without the ball. He stopped them a lot of times when they were nearly out.

Never gives up does Jack. Great defensive efforts tonight.
I thought his disposal was good overall.

Agree with the first line; not the second.

Butchered it in the first half particularly. Missed an absolute on the run soda in the first quarter and missed a leading forward in the second; kicked it to his opponent who was 10m off our player.

But he had plenty of mates in the poor disposal category.

He looked good playing alongside Taranto/Hopper in the same midfield

Seemed a bit like Lambert's role?
