Where is roughy at?

[Zack]

Was Nash good in the first half? Because from the second half I saw he was atrocious. His speed is completely negated by the fact that it almost always goes sideways when kicks it.

He gave us some run and carry when we moved it, mostly in the second half. Roughy kinda didn't get it to do anything wrong. So I guess that is one way not to make a mistake don't touch the footy.
Oh and one is about 10 years older than the other.
One is learning the game in his second year playing it the others been playing it for 20 years.

I'm not saying Nash is the answer, all I'm saying is Rough is no longer the answer. We have to accept that.

Unfortunately you might be correct, with the exception of Nash who should play before him based on today him being better than him we are bereft of KPP. Schoe is almost permanently injured much like Birchall (that's two players when Russell was at the club he's never been the panacea ppl have made out with players already at the club), Mohr is out for the season, Brand appeared to do a Hammy. Kosi was allegedly out injured too, Lewis was also allegedly concussed... well one thing I will agree with apart from Frawley once we had no one ever sit out games almost every week with either a migraine or concussion (think we are almost at 4 weeks in a row now). So unless we use Timmy up forward if Frawley is back one of Rough/Nash is coming in. Personally I'd play Nash, Rough is not the future. He can have his farewell game later in the season and Timmy was better in the ruck than him in his cameos today.

Anyway let's see how the week plays out, get the feeling Lewis' resting will end up much like Scrimshaw's last week. A rest so he'll be right this week.

Im confused? when did Roughy go from starting 22 to last drop? His form when dropped was clearly deserving of reserves but he is now he is required. Sticking with a hardline stance of "we need youth" is not what is required. We need wins. He gives us the best shot at that, he is in.

I would take a one-legged Roughy over Nash any day of the week.

Will probably play this week.

 

[Dr.J]

Will probably play this week.

A qualified yes subject to the extent of the Lewis concussion

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Rough will likely be an inclusion this week, but more due to circumstances than good form.

Rough has always said he wanted to get into list management, more than coaching.

Its not like we are going to be fighting for a finals spot at the end of the year so why not? Can't be any worse than the current mob.

Deserves a farewell though to be honest.

Has to.

Don't like this from Reeves.

 

[Flukey!]

Why would it be Reeves decision?
Roughy should absolutely get a farewell game.
I'll be disappointed if he doesn't, especially as we are just making up numbers this year.

 

[BobHawk]

Strange comment.

 

[Sicily]

Complete inappropriate comment from Reeves if reported correctly.

Even if this has already been decided in consultation with Ruff and/or is part of a broader strategy, the optics look terrible and will disengage many supporters.

There is ALWAYS room for sentiment in footy for the right reasons as far as I'm concerned - they say this stops, I'm outta here.

 

[Hodginator]

You’d 100% give Roughy a farewell game if it comes to that. We’re cooked anyway this year and if anyone deserves a farewell game, it’s big Rough. Round 18 v the Cats. Our last game at the G for the year.

 

[MrPremiership]

Round 22, 4.40pm start against Gold Coast at Marvel.

If it isn't a farewell game for Roughy then we'll be lucky to get 10,000 there.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Roughie certainly deserves a farewell game, especially given we are no chance of finals.

If he doesn't get one so we can cheer him off after such a magnificent and decorated career I will be absolutely livid.

 

[palmomagpie]

Hodgey had a farewell game, surely Roughy deserves one too? I get the club are ruthless with our veterans, but when the season is done and dusted already, we surely get given a chance to say goodbye to a multi-premiership player, coleman medallist, ex-captain and overall universally loved player.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Given we aren't going to make finals, I'll be absolutely disgusted if the big Rough doesn't get a farewell game.

 

[Hawkas1988]

He'll get a farewell game. Clarko is ruthless but he will make the right decision with this.

 

[palmomagpie]

We are the family club. If we can't look after grandpa, then do we deserve that crown?

Geez the club has had a terrible last 6 - 9 months both on and off the field....

I sort of know how Norf and Saints fans now feel.
