"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

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
