Cronulla Sharks forward and Indigenous All Star Wade Graham (pictured) has delivered a lesson in how to handle the disappointment following his suspension on Wednesday night.

Graham was named to make his State of Origin debut for the Blues on Monday afternoon but later that night, caught Cowboys  skipper Johnathon Thurston in a high tackle that ultimately saw him suspended by the NRL judiciary.

It’s a shattering blow for Graham who just missed out on a spot in the Blues Game One side, but he’s vowed to put it behind him and fight hard to regain his spot for Game Three.
