Club Statement http://www.carltonfc.com.au/carlton/news/2014-06-03/carlton-fc-statement-bootsma

The Carlton Football Club has today terminated the contract of player Josh Bootsma after it became apparent that he has breached the Club's and the AFL's Codes of Conduct.

The decision comes after a series of disciplinary issues with Bootsma that have compounded, and follows discussions with both Bootsma's management and the AFL Players Association.

Carlton was yesterday made aware that Bootsma had been engaging in inappropriate behaviour on social media.

The Club has been offering Bootsma counselling and welfare support to address his disciplinary issues, however he has failed to adhere to the standards expected and required.

Carlton's GM - Football Operations Andrew McKay says it's extremely disappointing.

"The Carlton Football Club has high expectations of its players and staff; we expect them to uphold certain standards," McKay said.

"The Club has attempted to offer Josh numerous forms of welfare and support in recent times, however he has continuously not lived up to the standards expected of a senior listed AFL player.

"This latest issue has left the Club with no other choice but to take this course of action. 

"Carlton players and staff receive education on both social media policy and AFL Code of Conduct on a regular basis."

Carlton will continue to offer counselling and welfare support to Josh in the immediate future.

Media are asked to respect Bootsma and his young family's privacy at this time
