"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

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
