Pick 53: Jack Graham

That’s good. Something he will always do I suppose. Just don’t remember him hunting as effectively as he used to but there may be reasons for that
his tackles were ineffective blokes just got spun around and handball to running players and off they go. he got rewarded for one but that was only because he was helped by dusty

Going like a busted arse. A real shame as he has done some great things in a Tiger guernsey. He and Towner were magnificent stories from 2017.

What's his contract status? On form and role it should be taken by a young player with more upside.
 
Outside player who doesn't win much ball so he's gotta have a trait to get him over the line. His kicking.

Never a big ball winner. An elite kick when he's right. Toe *smile* last year and couldn't hit targets. He started well this year working back into good ball use. But by now he's missing targets again and doesn't seem to be able to run.

We've got to manage him so he can run and kick. Maybe that means the paddock now.

Whatever is no right with him give him a rest.
Only the club and he truly knows.

Naked eye “Waiting’s good eye” looks to be labouring bad, struggling again.

What’s going to be his role in 24?

Played injured
Those who can’t see that or go down and watch him in rehab can just “ pile on him on PRE “. . He and Prestia should not be playing
Both were doubtful last 2 weeks but we don’t have much depth .

Whey are we playing players that are hampered by injuries? It’d be better to have a fully fit VFL player in the side (Dow, MJ, Sonz, Trezise, Brown, Banks, Hugo….

It must be critical to come around 9th at season's end?

When you play guy's who are carrying injuries it smacks of desperation or lack of trust in our kids. A sad indictment on our coaching and MC

Yep !! Although many AFL listed players who are in the VFL haven’t got much of a future you will find . Need to move many on . If you’re struggling in the VFL don’t expect there is a magic wand to make them high performers in the AFL hey
Huge gap !
 
Absolute rubbish
Was best 3 weeks ago
Short memory hey
That’s how his career works Stig. 1 good game followed by 10 mediocre games. His career hasn’t worked out that way because he’s fit for one week and unfit for the next 10.

Where’s Jack at? At 26 in 2024 he should be in his prime but he just keeps on this plateau. Out of contract come october, will he want to back home to SA again? Trouble for us is that he’s probable a late 2nd/3rd rounder Ie not much. Better to keep him now Trent has retired?

Must go .A very very ordinary last 2 years .We cannot go foward whilst we kerp gifting games to the likes of Jack.
COMPLETE fail as a foward flanker and way to slow as a mid .

If he hasn’t been re-signed by now seems he may be on his way. Has been very good in the past but his form has been poor for most of the year.
