The club's action was in response to an incident in which Bootsma sent explicit photographs over social media application Snapchat, which breached both Carlton's and the AFL's codes of conduct. The club also revealed that Bootsma had a history of problems with behaviour and dedication, having had a history of tardiness at training. Bootsma had played fourteen games for the club, but none in 2014. Suspensions of Mitch Robinson and Jeff Garlett Mitch Robinson and Jeff Garlett were involved in a brawl outside a night venue on Lonsdale Street at 5am on the morning of Sunday 3 August, which left Robinson with a fractured eye-socket. The players lied to the club about the incident, with Robinson claiming to have fractured his eye-socket in a boxing session at training. As a consequence, the club fined Garlett $2,500 and refused to select him in the senior team for the following week – he had been dropped to the Northern Blues several weeks earlier, and was confirmed by the coaching staff as having shown enough form in the VFL to be brought back to the seniors immediately before the incident – and Robinson was fined $5,000, and did not play again for the season due to his injury.The Age Melbourne, VIC Jeff Garlett in mix for recall, says Mick Malthouse http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/jeff-garlett-in-mix-for-recall-says-mick-malthouse-20140820-1064om.html Jon Pierik 20 August 2014 1 September 2014 Neither player played another game for the club, as both were put up for trade at the end of the season: Garlett was traded to ,http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-10-09/garlett-to-demons-confirmed Blue turns blue and red: Garlett moves to Demons 9 October 2014 Ben Guthrie 31 October 2014 Australian Football League and Robinson was delisted after no deal was secured.http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-10-21/blues-cut-experienced-trio Experienced trio gone as Blues delist more midfielders 21 October 2014 31 October 2014 Australian Football League Robinson was cleared of wrongdoing by police, and Garlett pleated guilty to behaving in a riotous manner.Herald Sun Melbourne, VIC Jeff Garlett dodges affray conviction over wild city brawl Chad van Estrop Padraic Murphy 20 March 2015 20 March 2015 http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/law-order/jeff-garlett-dodges-affray-conviction-over-wild-city-brawl/story-fni0fee2-1227271660185 The men on the other side of the attack pleaded guilty to affray and recklessly causing injury to Robinson, and were sentenced to 300 hours' community service.Herald Sun Melbourne, VIC Work order for Blues bashing 2 8 January 2015 Wayne Flower Individual awards and records John Nicholls Medal The Carlton Football Club Best and Fairest awards night took place on 17 September.
