James Graham

Post by cpwigan »

I rate James Graham as a player but strewth he needs to stop spitting his dummy out. Just read that he received his losers medal and then ASAP tossed it away.

he's got another 3 of them hasn't he? :) Seriously pretty typical of the scouse pillock. Can see him going downhill over the next couple of years if he stays at Saints, he's not got the temperament to stay in a losing side for too long lol

he needs to loose the attitude that he is better than any other prop he faces everytime he steps on the pitch becuase when he gets stoppped from making an impact he chucks his dummy out. he lost fair and square but still acts like a child. loose with dignity and you will get more respect. i've lost any respect i had for him this year and im glad Stu is back in the England squad to show him how its done. being a respected prop that is, not loosing with dignity. :conf:

I watched the match again yesterday and the foul language coming out of the mouth of Graham was disgusting and did anyone notice him walking around after the match with his shirt in his mouth like a sulky spoiled child?

certainly did, was one of the highlights of my day and to think Fielden's been criticised for not being able to mix it with the big fellas. Genuinely never known anyone so hard be such a pansy. Wasn't it Wilkin who said it was turning into football after Sam got taken out by Meli? Fair enough he milked it a bit but Graham was the closest thing I've seen to the behaviour of a football player on a rugby pitch. He should have been warned about his language to Alibert a few weeks ago but as usual nothing was done so no wonder we got a repeat performance.

I had a change of heart re Cunningham after the match. He at least showed dignity in defeat. As for the rest. The ginger whinger set the example,

Thing is with Graham he reminds me a bit of Neil Cowie, once he's tipped over boiling point hes not much use to anyone. I admire players who want to win and put it all on the line but theres a difference between not liking losin and being a bad loser

On a seperate not the outburst from Graham that saw him pointing and shouting abuse at the ref, anyone think back to when Sam was sin binned for saying "ok" and giving thumbs up to Ganson?. The ref's really need to get a handle on back chat its creeping in more and more

Throwing medals away tells you everything you need to know about his attitude.

The result was a fair reflection of where they were at and the work they'd done as a team. If you don't like it, use it as motivation, but don't disrespect the competition and the opposition.

If it was me I would have kept it. Not necessarily out on the mantlepiece, but I would have kept it all the same. If you want to improve you can't cherry-pick your achievements.

I agree there Jim. He was humble and magnanimous.
