"Police will allege he then spat a mouthful of blood at officers trying to apprehend him"- Holly [censored]!!

Who does this guy think he is? Count dracula? That's the most dispicable behaviour I have ever heard from a footballer (ex or currently playing) ever!

What an absolute DISGRACE to the jumper!! Makes my skin crawl that I used to cheer this guy on!!

    Do you think he'll regret not making the most of his opportunity in the AFL when he's older? It's a shame to hear he's like that. I liked Chopper when he was playing for us. Except I'd always be screaming at him to play in front of Gehrig and he never did, and was always led to the ball. Not to fast, was Chopper Carroll, to be beaten in a footrace by Fraser Gehrig

    That reminds me of Fraser's great play in the 2006 final where he had the ball a little outside 50, near the flank, and tried to 'run' around the mark but instead 'pulled' something and got pantsed by Carroll. That was a good moment.

    Yeah. That was hilarious. An absolute game-changer too, if I recall.

    I wouldn't read too much into it. My brother was up on assault charges when he grabbed an Officer's shirt (Because the Officer has pushed him!) and a button came off.

    Between the media and the coppers stories can get a little out of hand!

    Yeah, he had trouble playing in front because he had no ability to judge where the ball was headed, he made up for this with loads of courage. He could follow a pack and crash the top to spoil the incoming ball because the pack lead him to it but he was easily led under the ball cos he had no ball judgement of his own which was a shame

    was an average player in a great team, then it all went downhill. Seems its still going

    Fixed.

    I loved watching him play. If my memory serves me correctly he put on a bit of muscle over the last summer and never quite played the same after that.

    it all went downhill fast after that tackle on Gehrig... lol.

    It is sad to hear Carroll has fallen so far from grace.

    The truth is he still has what many listed players do not have. Blind courage, and massive testicular fortitude.

    If you could bottle that part of Carroll it would be a winning formula. The rest of Carroll seems to be venom, which he is using to poison himself.

    I hope he sorts himself out, and makes good with a life that could be better spent.

    Nothing used to get me more pumped than Chopper and Dutchy crashing and bashing through everyone in the opposition's forward line before the first bounce of every game.

    In reality, he was an average footballer though.

    I liked Nathan Carrol. He brought something a little bit different to the side. The one great year that he had, he didn't drink.

    Pity about that sort behaviour with the police.

    Average footballer when the MFC midfield was providing excellent control....

    And a complete Dill as a bloke while playing and obviously since retiring

    Only part of him I miss is his Mo.... not enough of that left in Aussie sport

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
