Can hardly believe we almost have a consensus on this bloke....what the hell is happening to BF? No abuse at each other, no vitriolic comments about the club/dimma/board/recruiters/other posters/Norf/Ty Esler etc etc.

Echo the sentiments, looks like we might have got a bargain. Pick in the 50s. Leadership tick, hard tick.

Who knows in not that long we might have Graham, wins the clearance, handballs to Bolton who takes off.... Imagine if the club might have thought the same......

The knock on Graham, it appears, is that he already is physically well developed at 183cm and 83kg and might not be able to bully men as he has players of his own age group.
He seems like such a driven young kid.. would love to seem him prove people wrong.. well worth the punt
 
A few quick facts...

Earthquakes have been recorded when Dusty and Jack 'Gus' Graham have inadvertently completed a push up at the same time.

As a young man, Brett Deledio had a poster on his wall of Jack Graham holding up a poster of Brett Deledio also holding up a poster of Jack Graham.

He is naturally bald. But his Bonce is actually a collection if Trent Cotchin's shaved facial hair.

His friendship skills are so legendary that it is said he can have a Marcon-Lambert bromance with everyone on the entire team.
 
Jack Graham (Pick No.53, Richmond)
Bullocking inside midfielder

Graham won the Larke Medal after a dominant national carnival captaining South Australia. His presence at the stoppages and ability to burst through congestion and get the ball going his side's way stood out, and is a reason why the club that selects him will have a strong level of confidence that he will be running out in the senior side next year. Will give the Tigers some hardness around the stoppages.

What's not to like about him...........had me at Brett keeping a poster of Jack.............:D
 
He's a shit kick but we can work on that (to an extent) and get his focus on handballing, much like Cripps does. Winning the footy is the hardest thing and he does that very well. It's can be hard to teach someone how to find the pill and if he can average 25 touches it shows he knows how to play the game.

I'm pretty comfortable with him at pick 53 but not as bullish as some people here. Kicking looks to be pretty awful, all other facets seem to be pretty good. But if he is purely a guy getting first hands on the footy and getting it out to others, he could defs play a role.

This kid was the best player in the u/18 national champs. The best. There's no way he won't be at least a good player at senior level.
