How'd you go today Machine Man? Were you even out there? Think I might've seen someone trailing ten metres behind the Saints ball carriers a few times and losing ground- just assumed it was you... :shh


What a sad piece of crap you are. You seriously require professional treatment as you’re not right in the brain, that is if you have a brain. You’re not funny you’re embarrassing yourself whilst looking for recognition. Must be sad being you.

Thats three shizen games in a row since his last decent game and then you have to go back forever to find a good game before that.

Posters lose all credability when they cannot for a second bring themselves to criticise a favorite player even for a second.

Cmon Machine just be truthful.

If machine or anyone thinks Graham isnt finished or at least in the short term needs to be dropped then they are delusional. I would be worried if machine is employed by the club and feels that Graham provides anything these days on a consistent basis.

Love how others playing poorly justifies not dropping Graham in your book.

Plays poo footy pretty often but hey so do others do who cares right

We've been very lenient with regard to some of the posts in this thread, probably way too lenient

So I am only going to say this once. There has been and continues to be alot of clear baiting and trolling in this thread. It stops tonight.

Disagree with another poster no issue but the constant sniping and baits stop now. Stick to the topic and debate it on its merits

Going backwards quickly. A worry given he should be coming into his peak years.
Reckon his best years were 3 or 4 years ago.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Only positive from Jack's game today was along with Taranto and Nank was that they led our tackle count.

The 3 of them had 7 each.

That between them they made up 37.5% of our total tackles sums up where our attack on the contest sits

Apart from the 7 tackles he was poor

At one stage he had 4 tackles and 4 possessions

This happens because he runs like he’s stuck on a treadmill .. he is second to the ball constantly .. not his fault he’s slow

Now before Machine starts to defend his high speed

The problem is he's a locomotive .. he takes time to get rolling , and that’s not ideal in a sport like AFL

I must admit I’ve been a huge fan of Graham but he has been very poor lately. Even his tackling has been poor compared to what we saw in the past.
Too many broken tackles nowadays.

It’s a shame that even our best tacklers are struggling to land effective tackles that kill possession and create turnovers.  It just doesn’t happen now. It’s frustrating to see how much the standards have fallen off nowadays  :help
