James Graham.

[Wauchope Dragon]

I

don't see Mann as a centre. I see him as a half or 5/8. That is it.

I don't mind him as a winger.

 

[blacksafake]

Done deal just checked.
Unless something happens.
3years with a option in our favour.
First year we paying less 50%
Then around 450 gor the next 2
So all good.

Sounds good Samy at those $ I think it's a pretty good deal.

 

[dragonssamy61]

If that is so, it's a fantastic deal for us.

Even if what mickey said its still a great deal

Correct blacksafake
If we get him even if we pay a bit more still a great deal

Shane Perry and Chad Townsend say hello.

Almost agree especially with Perry except they had good coaches with good game plans

3rd paragraph in the above ^^^ article is a little gem for all the conspiracy theorists. Looks like we have already lost the game tomorrow. (copy of paragraph below)

"An announcement is not expected until after the clash between the traditional rivals at ANZ Stadium, where Graham and the Bulldogs end the Red V’s finals hopes with an upset win."

Oh f**k!!

Graham to halfback hunt to hooker
I'm pumped about graham

Why would we offer 32 year old James Graham a three year contract, when we would only offer Packer a two year contract. Agree if we picked him up cheap first year and gave him a second year, but we are recruiting our way into trouble with long contracts for old players. As good a pick up that Ben Hunt is even at overs it was/is setting us up for some pain with a 5 year contract with option.

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

Very odd to announce before a game featuring the two teams.

Well neither club has announced it, still "technically" a rumour...

 

[Old Kogarah Boy 1]

Great News, people.

Just had this sent to me tonight.
Graham signs on for 2 years ..............

If 3 years, 3rd year option in clubs favor.

Like Penriff with Moylan, I think the Dogs are in turmoil re Hasler, Graham and salary cap dramas.

Dogs are going to be awful tomorrow - their minds are on Mad Monday.

That would at least make some more sense, hope you are right.

Its has a 3 year in our option.
In other words if we don't think we need him for the 3rd year we have the choice.

don't be so sure some of the dogs players are primed to play us, they want to knock us out of semi's, straight from one of their players...

I love how everyone would call Graham a cheap ass, a dog, a scum, etc before this signing and now those same ppl want to kneel down and deepthroat this guy hahaha same happened with Wendell Sailor back in the day.

Great example of how quickly people choose to drop their opinions/beliefs. ...and funny how some also can't see past their current opinions and hold on to them e.g. Mary being a terrible coach
