    Absolute gentleman and a sportsman for people to look up too. It was disgraceful the flak Casey copped during and after his racing career. Many of us have absolutely no idea how debilitating chronic fatigue and other mental illnesses can be. Mate you've earned everything thats good in your life. And thank you for showing the world again who Australia is and what we can deliver.

    Exactly. You'll find the people who gave him flak were fans of a certain rider (we all know who) and these people weren't motorcycle racing fans, they were fans of one rider.

    I agree with what you've said regarding to Casey, but I'd like to make it clear that chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is NOT a mental illness. It's a multi-system disease, often post-viral (like longcovid), with neurological, immunological, autonomic, and energy metabolism dysfunction causing symptoms far beyond extreme fatigue. In severe cases it will leave you bedridden for the rest of your life. Sadly, research into the disease has been highly underfunded and many psychologists have tried to label it as psychosomatic in order to 'treat' them with therapies such as CBT and GET. These therapies are now known to be harmful for ME/CFS patients and have been rejected by major medical research organizations such as the NIH and NHS.

    Casey is a _real_ racer. Up there with Gardner, Rayney, Doohan, Agostini, Hailwood, etc. Basically he's a "give him a bike, any bike, and he has the ability to win". He's not a "if it ain't perfect, I can't do anything with that" rider like Rossi, Lorenzo, etc. A true legend.
