Newly retired St Helens prop James Graham has revealed he and his family are headed back to Australia after winning a grand final in his last match in the Super League.

Graham – a great of both the Dragons and Bulldogs clubs in Sydney – returned to England for one final season which saw the Saints beat Wigan in a classic decider.

But it won’t be in a playing capacity.

“As long as I’m allowed back in, the plan is to come back to Sydney,” Graham told Andrew Voss on SEN.

“It’s been our family home there now for a number of years and that’s where we see ourselves starting off this next chapter.

“(I’m) having a few talks with St. George (Illawarra) about some possible employment opportunities, so keeping my eyes open for that.”
