He did last night. He was injured well before coming off and yet every time the physio went anywhere near him, Graham just waved him away. It looked like in the end they pretty much forced him to come off the field, as he wasn't going to do it willingly.
While it may be incredibly stupid, that's the sort of guts any fan or coach loves to see in a player.

| Quote Adeybull="Adeybull"Too right. Hard to pick a more effective prop than Graham anywhere in the competition - think he'd go very well in the NRL.
And if he can play through the pain (sternum injury? mother of all pains is that, especially since every man and his dog will target that) and get out on the park, he will. If he DOES have to admit defeat and miss out, that's a big loss for Stains.'"
The only ones who come close are Peacock and Lynch imo. There are other great props, but ones who provide more impact rather than 50 mins + constant hard work.
I think Saints pack will really miss Graham as he carries it for most of the year.

| Ive been on the saints part of the site and there calling for mick potter to be sacked already.
There saying the sames thing we Bulls fans were saying last year that he,s lost the dressing room,conditioner needs replacing ,players need a kick up the backside.
So IF and i mean IF this is right and theres unrest in the saints camp then were playing them at the right time.

| From what I understand, Saints are in a very very similar situation to the one our club finds itself in (that folk on here refer to as being mentioned or hinted at during fans forums). Not really surprising that their plight seems to be mirroring ours somewhat (although obviously they have a way to go yet until they "catch up"icon_wink.gif.

Then we better hope that if Graham and Faasavalu do play, they are not at their best as going in with one prop on the bench is risky.

One prop on the bench does not mean playing the whole game with 3 props though, as we saw numerous times last season with Burgess and this past Friday with Hall. Hall may start in the second row, but he will inevitably play some time at prop, meaning we actually play with 3.5 rotating props. And that's assuming he doesn't give Worrincy a spell there (although it would be better if Worrincy was given a spell as tea boy this week).

I know, but where's the impact coming from?

We don't have the squad to have an impact prop off the bench (with the possible exception of when Sculthorpe is back, but the jury is still out there). Not unless we leave Scruton or Lynch out of the starting line-up, which is daft as both have proven in the past that they have a far better game when starting.
With the squad we have, they will look for a different type of "impact" to just bringing a big prop off the bench to use as a battering ram.
