He also played for the Wigan Warriors in the English Super League competition. His regular position was Loose forward/Lock.
Nick Graham was a club stalwart at the Sharks during the late 1990s and up until the arrival of Chris Anderson at the club at the beginning of 2003.

Whilst Treister left the club to play for Hull FC in the UK, Graham decided to stay at the club and try to win back his first-grade spot.
However, Graham also later left during the 2003 season to play for the Wigan Warriors in the English Super League for the duration of the year.
Graham returned to Australia and played his final season for the Wests Tigers in 2004. After only featuring in 10 matches Graham decided to retire at the season's end.
