Average player. Another Jack Graham without a 3 goal GF to his name

Your criticusm of Jack Graham is unwarranted and unjustified. Jack Graham has been better than you suggest and his performances in big games has been excellent including last yearsvl finals where he played with a busted shoulder for three quarterdls which allowedbusbto go through to the grand final.

I just don’t think the excuse of being played out of position flies.

He showed a bit last year but he looked slow and unskilled at times last night.

I will say though - he hasn't been the same since Avatar fell on his ankle... :shh

That’s a really good point. Also isn’t he lighter this year?

Arguably our second worst behind Stack and still played better than Graham has been ....still like to see him to get a decent run of games.... :shh

Agreed. He was just ok.

What’s up with Stack? Looks really uncertain at times.

Not sure if it’s confidence or fitness or both...

Squibbed it a few times- was particularly noticeable in the third- which leads me to believe it's more the former than the latter as he demonstrated last year that he's not soft... :shh

Hmm. True, he showed plenty of courage and poise last year but he’s been nowhere near it this year.

Still only a second year player and I have faith that he’ll turn it around.

Needs to bulk up again...seeing him stand next to Dusty during the song really accentuated just how much the club's made him trim down(assume it was them)...wonder if it was to lessen the stress on his foot after the injury? An outside player he clearly ain't...:shh
