James (born September 10, 1985 in Liverpool) is a Prop Foward who plays for St. Helens RFC. James signed with Saints as a junior in 2000, eventually playing his way through the Junior Academies before making his senior debut against Castleford Tigers in August 2003. He has already had leadership experience after captaining the England Academy in a famous series victory in Australia in 2004.
The 21 year old Prop made a name for himself in Super League XX, making 27 First Team appearances and being named Saints’ Young Player of the Year, for his mature, powerful performances which has also seen him named as a contender for Super League Young Player of the Year, with competition from Wigan Warriors rival Chris Ashton. He has just signed a new contract at St. Helens to tie his future at the Knowsley Road based club until 2008.
Great Britain coach Brian Noble selected Graham in a friendly against New Zealand earlier in 2006 in the Castlemaine XXXX Test in which he made a try scoring debut at Knowsley Road.
