Quote: Pat's big right boot "My thoughts exactly. In the second half i don't remember him driving it in once. Watching it back on tv he offloaded it just before he hit the line 5 or 6 times. I couldn't decide if he was trying something different for the team or just accepting he was Stu and Coley's b1tch all game. Suprising for such a workhorse.'"
This is nothing new for Graham, i've been to the last 3 grand finals and as the games have slipped away from Saints, he starts to think he's a half back rather than a prop. You'll see him in back play ordering people about and taking the ball first receiver only to run a few yards and pass a simple ball to the very next player.
I believe he does it purely out of frustration the way Saints were playing, he probably thinks been used as a battering ram and that got them nowhere i'll try something different, but he needs to understand thats not his job. As we handle everything Saints threw at us, Cunningham, Matty Smith and whoever else was supposed to be playing half back for Saints were truely none exsistant.
he's certainly not soft, i don't think any player that takes a RL field is soft, certainly not the leagues top metre maker.
The dummy spits also annoy me, even though it was funny as a Wigan fan, i also look at the bigger picture and think we need him not to repeat that when we're up against the Aussies and Kiwi's
