    Today's the second lot of delistings. If Carroll's still on the list after today, does this mean he's staying?

    There is a 3rd list lodgement...

    Its after the ND, but precedes the PSD.

    Could it be an option.. allbeit cunning! to keep nathan on the list..play him in the two's tell his management that if he steps out of line once then his contract is immediately terminated....... and pray that he messes up and we dont have to pay him??

    sounds ridiculous i know but i could see it happening if he did stay!!!

    Doesn't matter what we tell his management from now on, it has to be stipulated in the contract & if it was he'd already be long gone.

    We can still terminate the contract, but we will have to pay it out in full, or get him to agree to a buy-out.

    its not rocket science. or brain surgery.

    possibly rocket surgery though.

    Even though he is no longer effectively training with or being considered for playing by the Club, Carroll will be on our list and payroll for the rest of 2009 season unless there is a negotiated position between player(and manager) and the Club that is approved and ratified by the AFL.

    Its no longer a matter of the Club establishing a breach of contract by Carroll or Carroll stuffing up one more time. For all intensive purposes Carroll is gone from the Club and Carroll is keen to get his AFL career gonig elsewhere and its a matter of tying up the loose ends to achieve this.

    Given Carroll's hopes for continuing his career and if he has another Club prepared to nominate him in the PSD there is a real incentive for his management to conclude the MFC negotiations prior to the PSD.

    At worst we have dead space on our list for 2009 and we pay out Carroll for 2009 over the course of the year.

    If an 'agreement' is made between MFC & Carrol, I'm sure the AFL and the AFLPA will leave their fingerprints all over it, not to mention be breathing down our necks during the entire negotiations.

    This has the potential to create a precedent that could affect the entire free agency debate.

    If he stays I can guarantee you he'll cop a fine of $5,000.00 every time he farts.

    Thankfully, the club has managed to clear the air over that issue.

    haha :lol: its almost more frustrating than the situation itself!

    On another note, I was talking to a bloke a few days ago who is a St. Kilda supporter - as soon as he heard the saints were looking at Carrol he started a petition & an internet campaign for the club to NOT get him - has been interviewed on SEN ad nauseum, etc. - and has just received a letter from the Saints pleading for him to cease & desist as they are quite serious about taking him & don't want bad publicity...

    amazing

    Why delete the threads about NC and CJ. Surely it's enough that both have been consigned to the history of the club?

    True. Keep the threads. :D

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
