Player Watch #34: Jack Graham - Weighing Up Free Agency Move To WCE

[Rocco sifreddi]

He has been Cooked for years, said it before the game is too quick for him even under wet conditions.

Shut him down you say? Serong still had 27 touches in a nothing game that was over at 1/4 time played in terrible conditions. Freo were going through the motions after 1/2 time and went into self preservation mode. If we were to have a full time tagger like other teams I would expect to see said tagged player actually "shut down" and be kept to <15 touches.

Serong had very little impact despite the 27. Wasn’t damaging at all and went at 50% disposal efficiency due to the pressure

Serong was also loose on his own in acres of space twice in the last. Lucky Serong torched both chances

Ooze said we went away from the Serong tag half way thru the third quarter

I've never listened to a presser in my life. Did he say why?

 

[prodigy]

I'm one of his biggest critics but he had a decent game.
I still can't wait to see the back of him though.

pretty much that Jack was doing a good job but we had to get the scoreboard moving our way faster, and with running out of time we had to remove the shackles

 

[db26]

Still needs to go his playing that tagger role because his a liability.

If you've ever seen Serong play for 2minutes before last night you would know how good of a job Graham did to limit him.

 

[Tonythetiger]

We need to pull a Geelong and manipulate a rule so bad it gets changed but we reap the reward. We need a club like Port Adelaide to pay Graham enough for band 1 compensation.

We then need to work some sort of deal where I dunno, we pay a big percentage of Rioli's salary to get extra first rounders. Then we trade a first round to Port for a second rounder, basically them buying a better pick in exchange for overpaying Graham. Then we get Pick 2 as compensation for Graham leaving.

Bit like our other mids output but Freo didn’t need to tag them.

 

[GhostofJimJess]

Excellent game by JGTI today. Probably in our best three with Nank and TT.

A few more of them in the run home and his value could increase significantly.

Boak and Graham looks like a good matchup
Both SA teams will be having a good "Captain Cook"

 

[Grrr]

Graham is playing better because he is at 100% fitness so he can keep pushing and pushing, which is his no.1 asset.
Underdone he is bog average. Hope he stays fit, either for us or for trade value.

Same type of player, which is why I think Port are interested in graham, if Boaks pulls the pin, the get the same player, but a younger version, for a 3rd rounder.

He will be there as support for Rozee, Butters, H-F, Drew. as 5th or 6th mid, he will be fine, like he was with our peak sides.

note comaparing Graham to what Boak has been last 2 years, not peak Boak

He's a free agent.

 

[TigerImposter]

He's a free agent.

we get compensated based on his deal that we give him and if Port match it. Port can also give him a deal also and we have the option of declining or matching it. I think we maybe lucky and get a late second for him

I'm aware how free agency compensation works. Yeah I reckon we'd get an end of 2nd.

i was curious why you said he's a FA.

Because the post said Port would get a younger version of Boak for a 3rd rounder.

They get him for nothing.

Cost though , but yep you’re right.
