Just heard that Nathan Carroll went on a rampage in Prahran and attacked several people, king hitting a couple of them. He's been arrested so you can expect the usual "Ex Melbourne Footballer Nathan Carroll….."

Liked Nathan. Let's hope it's not the Uncle Doug's

So did I but he really went off the rails, I guess his background was pretty harsh.

There was a period where he was a bit of a man around town if I recall. How much do you know RF?

Ironic that he saved his career by getting suspended in the VFL, therefore Daniher noted he stuck up for his team mates and gave him a few games.

His bad hair cuts were his other specialty besides totally trolling Fraser Gehrig.

Very true. Just read an old article that mentioned both Carroll boys Grandfather was a fighter in Jimmy Sharman's Travelling troupe. By all accounts his has been an unorthodox and tough upbringing. Early days but it reads like a country lad struggling with city life as much as anything.

It appears he king hit one man chased another then hit another for no apparent reason.

Sounds like he needs some time out

My last visual memory of him was wrestling Fraser Gehrig to the ground after he tried to play on around him just before half time? Our last final appearance in 2006. I think Gehrig never reappeared that game. A month later he has had some altercation with Ben Holland and was banished from the club. Last I heard he was playing up north and working in mining!

Played up at Glenrown couple of Ks down the road from me.. Played mostly forward and played off in the granny with a loss. Fits in well down there..

Always thought Carroll was too soft so was never a fan of his.

Are we talking about the same bloke? Talent issues, yes. Soft I don't think so.

He was scared of a smaller player from Freo (one of the Carr Brothers). A guy of his size should of deck that little %#$@

What do we need to do to get a player like John Duckworth in the team. Then we would not be considered a soft team. Mind you under the current rules he may not be on the ground all that much. Oh well you can not win them all.

All with one arm in a sling. "Someone" must've put a combination of substances in his drink....

I suspect that Hood missed the irony!

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
