"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

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 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.

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

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    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
