Main Board thread on Roughie

Geelong posters score an F- in the last 24 hours

Pathetic.

Agree, I think only a handbagger could be such a flog. I don't know if it's the inbreeding, too many drugs or the small town drink your own bathwater thing.

 

[Argy]

We were taking objection to this heartless little gem of yours...

Here's a question too. Is the medication he is taking for his cancer treatment not on the WADA banned list? I mean, WADA add things all the time. All that has to happen is for some sports scientist in Russia to find a way to use cancer medicine as a performance-enhancing drug, and it will be added to the list (I mean, heaven forbid someone take something to save their life, as long as it doesn't "improve their performance").

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Hey, *******, I know a bit about cancer you know. I had a brother who died of it last year.

Many of the drugs he used to keep it at bay made him sick, and had many bad side effects.

Suppose Roughead is taking medication, and it makes him too sick to play some weeks. He might be okay now, but sometimes the treatment and medication can make you as sick as the disease itself.

It is good that Roughead is back playing. I hate to see anyone suffering from cancer, and the more people who beat it, the better (too bad my brother couldn't). But even if he gets better, he might have a long road ahead from recovery.

A thing I read about cancer is that it never truly goes away. There is no cure, and it never actually leaves your system. It is based on cells with diseased receptors, and when someone recovers, and goes into remission (like Roughead does), then treatments, chemo, surgery and other things can help shut the receptors off, and the patient goes into "remission". Now, that means that they will be fine, but it can always come back. Now, some people like ex-cricketer, Simon O'Donnell, never seem to get it a second time, and may never get it again, but it is always there, ready to switch on again, and medicines, ongoing doctors appointments, and hopefully some luck will keep Roughie from ever getting it again. It was my brother's second bout of cancer that he died from, so even though he got rid of it the first time (via operation), but it stayed in his system and came back five years later.

All I am saying is, Roughie may have good days and bad days with the treatment. Some may use it for years. I am just saying this to make people aware. Just because you don't want to hear it.

Hopefully, Roughie's skin cancer never returns, and he lives a long life. I want cancer to be cured ultimately, and want to see as many people as possible go through it. I don't want Roughie's family to suffer any loss, like my family has.

(Anyone who mocks my brother for dying, will get reported by me, to the mods. I don't usually report, but I will be happy to make an exception in this case).

My mother died of cancer too. That doesn't give me carte blanche to act like an absolute campaigner (and that's what you did) on opposition boards on what is only a good news story and where any other opposition supporter was gracious in sharing their happiness for Jarryd.

Thankfully our club has consulted his doctor's and family when making this decision (information you could have easily ascertained too) and didn't consult knowitall tossers from Bigfooty.

You can take your long-winded excuse and medical lecture and stick it up your arse with a copy of the 2008 grand final DVD.

Can we just have the posts removed and stop quoting them

I'm fine with that also.

 

[flinchfree]

I have removed most of my posts myself, because it is obvious that Hawks supporters are too overly-sensitive to anyone not bowing at the altar of the "pees-and-poos". Heaven forbid anyone disagree with you Hawks fans on the site.

Now, hurry up, your bandwagon is waiting (since that is why most of you joined the Hawks in the first place).

You can always rely on an arseh*le to out himself, so congrats on making that label self evident.
I'll be watching for your puckered visage come game time between our teams......we all know how queasy scared shitless Cats fans get at the thought - and act - of losing to us.

Showing your true colours now mate.

The "holier than thou" stuff was very unconvincing!

 

[threesixpio]

Man - I'm over Cats posters. WTF. Sorry mods but it might be time to step in. Two Roughie threads stunk up with Hawthorn posters copping infractions. Anyways ...

 

[Gralin]

Hurry up and go on sale Round one is all I can say now
If the wife wasn't such a mad Rough fan I'd leave her home and get smashed standing room for this one, maybe I can get her drunk and she won't notice we aren't sitting.....

I was pumped when I thought it would be his return game but as captain boy oh boy

 

[Gold Member]

I'm thinking WCE and Melbourne are classy enough to to allow Mitch and JL to toss the coin when we play them now Rough is the El Capitan.

 

[Gold Member]

Oh FFS. grizzlym Messenger Abasi eldorado board ban this Geelong ****wit already!
Main board also thx

 

[Gunstall555]

Of all threads, it would be really nice to keep this one on topic.

Yep. Fair enough. I'll try to as well (it's Hawk posters too - me included)

Done. He's having a holiday for even daring to shit on a thread like this.

Damn straight.

Posters responding to trolls with more troll comments certainly don't help.

 

[CALL ME SNAKE]

Sorry to intrude .
As somebody who has had a family member die from Cancer recently this is really nice news.
Good on him. Great player, great bloke. Will be a great Captain
Cancer can go and get f****d. This is the best victory Roughie has ever had

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Haters will say it's photoshopped:

 

[Baz_hawk]

What is happening on his right arm?

 

[EIGHTYEIGHTEIGHTYNINE]

What is happening on his right arm?

Laser tattoo removal?

 

[CD Xbow]

It's been photoshopped, poorly, too. Not rough at all, you can see the back of the head of the original person behind roughs head. Lighting is wrong on roughs head, too. As for the bit under the arm it looks like someone clicked the clone brush accidently and cloned a bit of eye and temple.

 

[Mr Lizard]

Hater.

 

[Paul007]

The big Roughie is superstitious about touching the banner and always runs through last after is already broken so that will be new for him leading the team through the banner.

Photoshop on iPhone isn't nearly as sophisticated as you make it out. You also missed the dodgy shade of blue in the grand final banner where 2017 has been overwritten.

And Roughy shorter than Clarkson? Maybe if you cut off Rough's legs at the knees and I reckon it would still be a line ball call.
