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.

    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

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form
