You, or i, or anyone else don't need to know the full story. All you need to know is they've been suspended for breaking team rules.

The vast majority of people who follow Carlton don't belong or hang around forum chat rooms. They'll see in the paper why they've been suspended and just get on with it. I think you should too.


Why should we not know the real story
If it is a small misdemeanour then we could live with one week suspension
But it is a major one - getting on the piss till early hours of Sunday morning when you are a professional footballer
at this time of the year and missing the rehab session completely!!!! They should be suspended for the rest of the year

You have your opinion I'll have mine. Most intelligent people who follow football will read between the lines. Others will be happy to swallow everything the club says.

We expect the players to be professional - well so should the club.


Being out on the grog isn't an offence as such. Missing the rehab without a valid reason is and that is why they were suspended. The Club has said why they were suspended and that is the facts of the matter.

Regards Cazzesman

on a positive note, paves the way for four changes this week.... with hads missing plus these three.

one thinks it would probably be Warnock coming in for cloke, and yarran coming in, with two spots up for grabs.

did someone say PfeiffeR?

Next we'll be getting fed the old line about thier alarm clocks not going off. Lets get real - if we seriously think that omitting a minor detail about being too drunk to attend training is not relevant then we are a joke.

Well done for taking the stand but lets all know what really happened.

Well the facts have mostly been covered now.

Time to move on.

Maybe I am a little romantic and live in the past, but people will always mess up.

I strongly believe that different penalties should have been applied, but the leadership group is right behind the decision as are the Directors.

Leadership need to remember that not all our players are well educated, some just have rare talents and brains that are wired to play football.

I know from a club insider that they weren't actually late
In fact they didnt turn up at all because they were out till the early hours drinking
The only good thing is they told the truth to the coach when questioned as to their absence
But they should go for the rest of the year not only this week
Do they have any brains in their head to go and do this at this time of the year


I agree. No finals action for any of them...tough punishment but the price you pay for being paid big dollars. This is a professional sport not amateur hour. Not concerned so much about Cloke as we probably needed a reason to weed him out of the side, but Betts is the big disappointment...very poor role model for Garlett.

Very disappointing.

I hope all three fronted the whole team and individually fessed up to what they did, apologised for letting the team and club down, and the lessons they learnt from the experience.

Now time to move on.
