Postion- “I’m a lock, I’m in the second row of the scrum and I’m one half of the engine that drives it.”
How long have you been playing rugby?:”This will be the end of my second year.
How do you feel about heading to Manchester?: I’m EXTREMELY excited, I’ve never been overseas but I have TONS of overseas friends that I can’t wait to see and I can’t wait to make even more friends in the world of gay rugby!”
Graham is very active in the local LGBT community, as well as involved in fundraisers for The Phoenix Storm, and other great causes.
