Only James Graham really knows the truth of what happened, however, in my opinion he did bite Slater's ear, which has really lowered Graham in my estimation. To make it worse, he is now claiming to be innocent, which has lowered him even further. I never took him for a dirty player, but this is the sort of thing that a half wit like Hock would do. Graham will always now be remebered as a biter. That's not to say that I wouldnt have him back here in a flash, but he will never be quite the same person that he was before the weekend.

There has been a massive over reaction about this and more so from the Australian press. Have a read about Les Boyd who is now classed as a legend.

In mine he didn't. So my opinion of him is in tact. I think Jammer is way too honest to be a biter, and by honest I mean he has heart on sleeve. He was well known as a moaner and a ratty person, he didn't hide it. I don't think he is the kind of character to do such a sly thing. He'd more likely punch Slater.

Besides that, of course, the pictures are inconclusive.

Do you still think slater marked his own ear?

I didn't ever think that and so I can't 'still' think it can I?

I think Slater got ear damage in the brawl.

Wouldn't put it past him - but seriously, there was a huge fracas before the Graham incident so he could have scratched it there.

If you read the full report of graham's defence; missing teeth, no bite mark, he was screaming abuse, the dentist report. the doctors report, no history of violence and certainly not of biting etc it makes a good case of him being given the benefit of the doubt.
It looks like minds were already made up though.

Exactly.

Disgusting. I hope the milk bottle ginger chav rots and never plays a game in the red vee again. He belongs at Wigan or any other club that embrace asbos.

Get a grip. We've had players who have done far worse. Didn't we have one who ate a child once?

I am pretty sure we had already shipped him off to Leigh before he took up cannibalism? Being sent to Leigh would mess with anyone's head. Just like living amongst the convicts, no wonder graham has gone feral

I wonder what you would have said if it had been Hock or McIlorum instead of Graham? Would you be so staunch in their defence? No be honest, you would be saying that the sentence wasn’t long enough and they should be banned for life etc. Please don’t come with, “Graham isn’t like them, he wouldn’t do things like that, he’s a good lad” I would think your outlook on the whole incident would be the complete reverse.

As would yours!!!!!
