For those who think he won't be able to make the yards down under, here are some stats from the recent series against the best the Aussies and Kiwis could offer. (The type of players he will be up against week after week). Just click on the 'Leading player graph' tab to see his awesome stats.

In the 1st match made more yards than any Aussie or English forward on the pitch!

Again against NZ he made more yards than any other forward on the pitch!

In the final Gallen and Thaiday where the leading metre makers, but Graham was only 7 metres behind!

Oh, by the way in the 1st match against the Aussies, when he made more yards than any other forward, he did that in just 40mins. He never even played in the 2nd half due to his back injury. Amazing don't you think. a014.gif

Graham is a machine and one of the best props in the world; he'll do just fine in the NRL and they'll love him.

Just hope he gets good advice on skincare - they suffer in the sun don't they, them ginners?

I already hear that their new coach Dessie Hasler is not impressed with that signing. He will be looking at long spells in the reserves.

Im looking forward to seeing him trying to pivot and offload at the line in the NRL, I suspect he'll get more than a few clouts around the clops if he gets too close to the line ala "The King" with Wakey back in the day.

Quote: pud "just wanted to say he is the most over rated player in super league, he will get battered over there in the nrl. the games he played over here against the aussies he was poor and was easily found out by the aussies. people rave on about him over here but he's just average at best, the aussies will kill him over there and he will find it hard because the aussie refs wont listen to him whingeing all the time, good luck james you'll need it!!!
Well done. You've succeeded in displaying your utter ignorance. Graham's work rate is immense. He would walk into any SL team and I have no doubt will acquit himself well in the NRL.

He'll get by on work rate alone. Hopefully, he can add a bit more power to his game. He'll do well.

Well,,Seeing Hasler has just gone to the Bulldogs and has never met the bloke yet...that seems a bit strange to me....

He'll probably need to change his style a bit - a bit more dynamism running the ball and do less of the stand off work he has done for Sts. I can't see any reason why he won't do well.

He'll be fine.

Took Morley over a year to hit full tilt. Then look.

Hopefully it'll take James a lot less. I've only seem him in internationals and like his ball handling skills, tips ons and his double pump pass to set up a try against NZ. That's without even mentioning his work rate.

WEST COAST PIRATES NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg



There's only a handful of decent props in the NRL, he'll go fine.

I'll take that bet. Say £100 to the SPF?

I'll say he'll play more 1st grade than reserve grade.

FGB should do alright Down Under, although I don't think he'll make the same initial impact as if he'd have moved a couple of seasons ago. I thought he was looking tired in the 4 seasons, possibly the legacy of carrying the Saints pack over too many years.

Good luck to him. Perhaps a new country, new challenge, new season will spark up the Jammer of old. I do worry though about sunstroke, and the dangers posed by any passing Japanese whaler if he's laid out on the beach!.....
