Poor kid's year is done.

He won't/shouldn't play next week.

Need to bring in a hard body to replace him!

Looks like he is going to miss on the big one  :(. It's these situations you wish we were like Soccer where the whole squad receives a premiership/championship medal. Graham playing through the pain has helped us into the Granny. He deserves a medal if we go on and win it now.

+1. Should set a minimum number of games quota to get a medal like in soccer. Although even with that the clubs generally apply for dispensations to get the players who hadn’t met the quota a medal anyway.

Just a brilliant effort. He is a brilliant young bloke and his effort in playing out the last 3 quarters will be the stuff of legend.

Jack Graham – 4

Was in the wars early when he dislocated his right shoulder in the first quarter. Showed plenty of courage to return to the game in the second half and ensured the Tigers didn't go two players down after Nathan Broad was ruled out with concussion.

I would give him 10.

If he doesnt continue to play we are one rotation down for 3/4s and basically up the creek without a paddle.

Hopefully won't miss will depend on scans. Incredibly brave effort.

He is just an outstanding young bloke and clearly with the likes of Nick Vlastuin a future Richmond Captain.
