Josh Bootsma gets the boot

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.

Pretty cocksure isn't he?

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?

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

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.

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 :lol:

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

Man sends photos of *blank* gets sacked.

Man oversees pharmacalogocal experimental environment gets years paid holiday in france.

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

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).

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.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
