Josh Bootsma gets the boot

[Machsy 2,858]

Sacked by Carlton, allegedly for sending unsolicited photos of his <redacted> to random <redacted> via certain apps.

The answer to our needs as a quality disposer of the footy of a HBF?

Kidding!

[Ted Lasso 19,334]

He's just a doodle head, not surprising when the offered him up for trade he attracted zero interest.

[Deestroy All 14,262]

Don't be too quick to dismiss going after him.

Very good, solid, strong and tough fleet footed defender would add a whole lot to our defence.

Said no one ever.

I had to laugh, when I looked for articles on this subject and came across a pre-draft story where he listed his defensive pressure as one of his strengths.

God help us.

Looks like pinnochio and plays like pinnochio crossed with a matchstick man!

A giant NO

Hang on Giants can have him !!

Pretty cocksure isn't he?

Man sends photos of *blank* gets sacked.

[Ted Lasso 19,334]

Maybe the players are more desperate than we thought to get out of Carlton, who could blame them

[Canberra Demon 159]

Thats three off their 2014 list this year

Bootsma, Scotland and Duigan

Keep this up and they can have a complete rebuild in two years

When did Scotland get delisted?

[jazza 1,323]

bootsma posted pictures of his banana on the wrong thread.

demonlands own NtsBS thread is the place for these photos.

When did Scotland get delisted?

Scotland retired.

[daisycutter 29,605]

must have been a pretty unimpressive john thomas to get sacked

I liked this quote from carlscum

"The Carlton Football Club has high expectations of its players and staff; we expect them to uphold certain standards,"

maybe it was the "upholding" bit got him into trouble?

Just gotta get rid of McLean, Waite, Robinson, Armfield and they'll be almost DH free.

Oh and "pressure point" will retire soon, surely.

I'd almost feel sorry for Carlton supporters... if they weren't Carlton supporters.

If he really has sent a snapchat to another consenting adult who had reason to expect said snapchat then why is it the clubs business?

He must have done a lot wrong previously because I'm not sure based on this alone whether that would be enough to fire someone.

[What 18,810]

relax guys, Im sure Judd, Murphy GIbbs etc etc would have been sacked for the same thing

NOT

You'd think that the club wouldn't know about it, if it were to a consenting adult happy to receive it.

It's possible to look up people you know on Snapchat if you have their phone umber or username - that doesn't mean they're expecting to receive dick pics.

I also heard he may have been up to similar behaviour on tinder.

Having not really used that properly myself, I'm not sure if you can send pics via that app, and they would likely be complete strangers that he finds attractive.

I'm sure there'd be plenty here that would know how tinder works and can fill us in.

sending it to jeannie was probably not a good idea

but all jokes aside, the implication was that this was just the last straw in a protracted saga

HSBC found to be complicit in enabling drug cartels and terrorists to launder billions of dollars through their banks - no charges laid

Lovely world we live in isn't it

[Machsy 2,858]

I think Carlton have probably also been looking for an excuse to get Bootsma off their list, after signing him to mind-boggling extension until the end of 2015.

As much as he was a failure, he somehow managed to outlast Rory Taggert, Josh Tynan and Lucas Cook (previous draft, but still didnt last as long on an AFL list).

[InVINCEable 358]

Throw a million a season at him.

[dee-eee 231]

He was a bit stiff i reckon .

Might not have been an "adult"

"It is believed there was an exchange of images with a teenage girl. It is understood her mother alerted the club on Monday and Carlton sacked Bootsma that night"

This is all a big misuderstanding.

The photos were of Bootsma's head, the two are easily confused.

[Deestroy All 14,262]

He always reminded me of Zack Dawson. Didn't think he'd mirror him this closely though.
