Jack Graham that is [merged]

This probably sounds nuts as he only had 12 possies today but as the game went along it felt like our link up play was so much better with Graham back in the team. We seem to generate goals when he was involved in a chain of possession on transition.

I agree, I was surprised to see his stats, seemed to more involved than 12 possies

Should be captain. He is the glue that binds the team.

Look at the Clarke goal and 2 of the Prestia goals

It was Graham's attack on the footy, getting the ball out that got us those goals

Today's game is a perfect example why stats don't tell the real story

Ditto this week too. It will again go unnoticed on the stats sheet, but Graham was terrific again tonight doing the selfless hard stuff. 

[TigerLand]

Agree love him he has impact almost similar to Cyril Rioli but completely different styles. Doesn't get a heap of it but just impacts in important ways.

[Andyy]

Gee we've missed this guy, have to echo that sentiment

[Willy]

Heart and soul player.

Gives his all every week.

Yep, Richo mentioned it during the game

While someone LOL the bar supposedly being set low

Facts are without those acts, then we miss out crucial goals....

[Simonator]

Has been building nicely. Watching last games replay, he is our best player at hitting targets inside 50. He just lowers the eyes ( some times at the very last second and pulls the kick ) and finds people. So refreshing to watch compared to the bomb it long

What no one is talking about: Graham down on form

Andrew Slevison

Jack Graham’s form has been well below his best in recent weeks.

The usually hard-tackling Tiger played 83 per cent of game time against the Power to finish with just three kicks, 11 touches total, one contested possession and one tackle.

He was quiet in his return from injury against West Coast in Round 8 (12 touches, three tackles), was so-so in the win against Geelong in Round 9 (17 disposals, three tackles) and was ok against Essendon last weekend (17 disposals and two tackles).

Graham is playing a tricky role as a high half-forward where you can get caught between play often, but the Tigers need much more from players like him if they are to pick off some wins this season.

His average of 14.5 disposals is his lowest since 2018 and his tackle average of 3.2 is far inferior to any other season.

Yup was very poor yesterday. If I thought we’d be a chance for 5+ changes then I’d say he’d be in trouble.
