If it's true,
then I'm guessing it's one of the younger kids.

Jeffy and Robbo taking them out to help initiate them

Maybe Nick Graham?

Thank god this will take away from the attention of those petty issues Essendon* is dealing with.

Mitch Robinson lied to Carlton officials when asked how he had suffered a broken eye socket during a scuffle in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Robinson had told the club he sustained the injury during a boxing session, with the Blues only finding out later in the week that this was not the case.

KB having a great time hanging it on Carlton, suggesting that we should not be able to be part of the opening game of the season. Tongue in cheek of course.

Meanwhile, Reece Conca chases a player on the field and elbows him to the back of the head without warning.

Go KB, Richmond is the best. I wish our players were as tough as your cowards!!!

Tony Shaw said today, he doubts whether either Robbo or Jeffy will be with the Blues next year. Then said, ''It'll probably save Jarrad Waite, because they won't get rid of the 3 of them''.

Who knows ?

Mike Sheahan also said Yarran wouldn't be at Carlton this year, they'll eventually get one right. I like Jeff and hope he stays, not sure on Robbo.

Mitch Robinson should not remain at Carlton next year. Robinson is still out of contract, with talks on hold because of his latest indiscretion. If there is a taker, as there surely will be, the Blues should expedite the trade.

If someone gave us a second rounder for Hampson, surely we can get at minimum a third for Robbo? St Kilda could use him to protect their kids when Lenny retires. Maybe Richardson still likes him? Didn't he try get him to Port last year?

CARLTON has officially withdrawn a contract offer for Mitch Robinson as it considers cutting him loose from the club.

The Blues could still lose Robinson, Jeff Garlett and Jarrad Waite for little or no compensation as Carlton refused to guarantee Robinson’s future.

It can be revealed a contract offer the Blues offered mid-year has been taken off the table with the Blues furious with Robinson’s lies.

His manager Tim Hazell said his future would be decided in the post-season, with Robinson to seek outside help for his anger management issues.

Why does Ralph say Robbo and Jeffy are UNRESTRICTED free agents. They're not even free agents. It's not that hard.

I hope we keep him as I think we are a better team with him in it. He plays with an intensity that few in the team can match, flies the flag for his teammates and over the course of the season (when not suspended!) I think he has actually improved in his ball use and decision making. He has also shown an ability to play forward and kick goals.

He's never going to invited to join MENSA but from the outside I reckon he is a pretty good, well-meaning bloke who is just a bit "dumb". Fine him and get him some counselling or whatever profession help he needs - but there is no way we should get rid of him over this.

Players are pretty sick of him.

Dont they become free agents if the club doesnt offer them a contract?
