Will Graham spent a lot of last season rotating through central midfield for Gold Coast, with Touk Miller preferred in a mid/forward role. Miller's resurgence in 2025 has seen Graham play almost exclusively as a forward, taking over that role from David Swallow. Like Archie Perkins and Finn Maginness at other clubs, his talents are better suited on the inside but he doesn't have the polish of his teammates and thus his future seems to be as a roleplayer. You can still play 200 games that way and build a respectable and long career, and the Suns need that kind of solid soldier.

Will Graham is one of a host of draftees in a seemingly endless line that Gold Coast have brought into their side in their short existence, building from nothing as a franchise and still struggling to find a solid 22 that will get them to a long-awaited finals berth. Sam Clohesy has been the pick of the 2024 crop from a fantasy perspective running on the outside, while Jed Walter and Ethan Read are talls and thus are not of much use. Will Graham has slotted into the B-rotation inside mid role usually reserved for Alex Davies, and as such is more of a bench cash cow.
