Straight Sets Simon

Citation needed.

sorry mate, you are not entirely correct there, there is no evidence of stress being 'directly' linked to cancer, but stress does cause people to smoke or generally be unhealthy that could cause cancer, but either way, it's terrible news for Bails and his family. the Demon family should all show our support for the man.

Google "stress and cancer" and read plenty.

And Genetics, diet, behaviour and environment don't?

Of course they do.

I'm not trying to be clever or stupid chook.

Only demonland could turn a get well thread in to an argument.

Not my intention.

I wish him all the best and won't debate further.

I must say McQueen it is the first thing that popped into my head also... not just the tanking saga but just being under heaps of pressure when coaching us, everyone on his back, getting smashed, ultimately 186 and shown the door.. can't be good for anyone's health. Bloody awful news, all the best to him.

What? Cancer is directly related to stress.

The tanking saga reignited by Anderson would've played a huge part on his condition.

I wish him all the very best and hope he is able to fight this thing into remission and beyond.

good old google, not going to get in an argument on a thread about this terrible news, i work as a specialist in cancer, and the one of the most important things is to have a positive mindset and Bails seems like that kind of a man, i put my money on him to beat it.

Very sad to hear! This bloke has really been through it the past few years. He doesn't deserve this on top! Sure hope he makes a speedy and full recovery!

No offence Pal, but in an anonymous forum like this I'll take Googles credentials over yours.

All the best Bails!!!!!!!!

This guy could actually coach and had us borderline finals 8 team leading into the 186 disaster

Then Schwab and all the closed door factions bickering went up a gear and it went pear shaped

I like Dean Bailey!

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
