He played for Country in the annual City vs Country match in 2007.[2] Graham has scored 58 tries in 94 games (61.7% strike rate) for the raiders.

In Round 21, 2009 against Brisbane, Graham scored 4 tries, just one short of equalling the club record.
On Friday 11 September 2009, he agreed to a two-year deal with the Sydney Roosters, becoming new coach Brian Smith's first recruit.
