I don’t think people know what Graham is. Josh Jenkins said he doesn’t suit Port as they’ve got Ollie Wines and other similar types …. Graham is nothing like Ollie Wines. Wines is a clearance beast. Graham is a big body but he’s not a good clearance player. He’s not creative with his hands or by foot. He gets caught with the ball a lot. He’s a hard running transition player who tackles very well and provides good 2-way running.
If we can get a Port pick around #20 that’s a fair deal if Graham wants to move. I actually think that his perceived trade value in the market is a lot higher than his actual worth, thanks to 2 x flags and being 23yo and a good leader. So it might be a good time to cash in given we’d get maximum tote odds right now.
People might thinks he’s worth a top-15 pick, but how often does a game end and Graham inexplicably has had 10-15 x touches ..?? For some reason (maybe his role) he just goes for long periods or even entire games without finding the pill. Sometimes post-game I think Graham is the next Travis Boak, and other times post-game I think he’s a poor mans Seb Ross.
Whatever happens, hopefully any Graham trade can happen after TT / Hopper, as if we’ve got a good pick for Graham GWS expectations will go up and they’ll want that pick.
So 12, 30, Soldo or RCD and next years first for TT and Hopper.
Then if he wants to go get a pick around #20 for Graham.
So enter this years draft with picks #19 and #20 so continue the ‘rebuild on the run’ whilst still contending.
