Absolutly horrible news for Roughy.
One of the few Hawthorn players that I like.
Wishing all the best for him and I hope they got the melanoma early enough.

Checked there before I posted, all they had was some story about Harley Bennell doing lines in the off season.

Edit: wow, tragic for Roughy, wish him all the best.

Roughy is certainly one of the good blokes in the AFL and a great footballer to boot. Hope he recovers quickly.

As highlighted by Buckley - he is the best big player in the game.

This can be pretty minor to life threatening so hopefully for Roughead it will be only a minor thing and he will be back playing footy.

True, best wishes to Roughhead.

I think the only Hawthorn player I have ever had the time of day for...

Also, one of the greatest footballers names ever. Seriously, Roughhead - as if he was ever going to do anything else except play a contact sport.

Great Player and one I enjoy watching. All the best to him and it's another example to make people aware of the dangers of the sun.

Best of luck to JR for a quick recovery.

Roughy is such a great player. Almost the most valuable in the AFL you could argue. A unique combination of being exceptional at the big man things and the small man things. He's better than Franklin.

Let's hope all the test are clear.

Shocking news. Let's hope they've caught it in time.
