A number of Carlton players shaved their heads today as a fundraiser for co-captain Sam Docherty and the Peter Mac Foundation.
Docherty is halfway through chemotherapy as he battles testicular cancer for a second time so his teammates wanted to do something in his honour so chose to shave their heads and raise money.
“One of our own, Sam Docherty, is currently fighting a battle and as a club and broader community, we are wanting to show our support for him and the Peter Mac Foundation,†Blues co-captain Patrick Cripps said when promoting the fundraiser.
“We will post before and after photos plus videos, and we would love for you to do the same and tag the Carlton Football Club and the Peter Mac Foundation.
“We also want to raise funds for the Peter Mac Foundation to support their discovery of cancer cures. We are hoping to raise $5000.
“Thank you in advance for your generosity, and we can’t wait to see a few shaved heads getting around in support.â€

AFL Women’s football general manager Nicole Livingstone said the trio would bring plenty of experience to the committee for season six of the women’s competition.
“They are each experienced football personnel who will add a diversity of views with their varied professional and sporting backgrounds,†Livingstone said.
“Trent and Bec will add the perspectives of current Head Coaches while Kate will provide valuable contributions as a Club President.
“Trent is a respected coach at Fremantle and is a fantastic advocate for women’s football across all levels of the game while Bec’s standing in the AFLW Competition as the inaugural Premiership Coach will forever be etched in the game’s history, so too her appointment as Hawthorn’s inaugural AFLW Coach.
“Kate is a respected leader who has held many roles across elite sport in this country and her experience will be of great value to the Committee.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank departing member Mark Evans (Gold Coast SUNS) for his contribution as a committee member.â€
The AFLW Competition Committee members attending today’s meeting: Simone Wilkie (chair), Nicole Livingstone (AFL) , Andrew Dillon (AFL), Kate Roffey Melbourne president, Diana Taylor Geelong vice president, Mark Evans Gold Coast Suns chief executive officer (departing member), Brendon Gale Richmond chief executive,

Collingwood is still open to trading ruckman Max Lynch to Hawthorn if the right offer arises.
The Magpies have receive any trade offers for Mason Cox while Josh Thomas remains without a contract but could get a second look once the trade period enters.

Magpies football general manager Graham Wright said Lynch was able to look at other clubs but the Magpies valued him as a back-up ruckman.
“We haven’t heard from Hawthorn yet so I’m not sure where it sits with Lynchy,†Wright told AFL trade radio.
“We would like to retain him but he wants to have a look around given he is behind Brodie Grundy and seeing a way past him is something he doesn’t see but he’s still a valuable player.
“We are happy for him to have a look around but we have told him there will be a spot here with us.â€
Wright said on Friday he had yet to receive any offers for Cox who is out of contract but hadn’t ruled out re-signing him for next season.
Thomas hasn’t been offered a contract but is reportedly well-liked within the club so could have his future reviewed once trade period is over.
Rory Lobb’s manager Colin Young says GWS Giants have yet to make a contract offer to the Fremantle Dockers big man but it should come over the coming days.
Last night it appeared the deal could be in trouble after reports the Giants hadn’t given Lobb an offer he liked despite being content to accept less money than he was making with Fremantle.
But Young told AFL trade radio on Friday that the Giants were still working out what they could offer the Dockers and what they could pay and how many years they could offer Lobb.
“At no stage did I say the trade was over,†Young said to AFL trade radio on Friday.
“All I said was we had a bit of work to do. Full credit to [journalist] Damian Barrett for finding out that this was going on, I actually said yesterday it was great the media hadn’t got wind of it!
“I’ll be meeting with him in the next hour. We’ve had only had light discussions with Jason McCartney, so there’s a bit of work to do.â€
Melbourne is talking with the management of Rising Star winner and premiership big man Luke Jackson with the Demons categorically denying they have had any talks with Fremantle about the WA native.
Jackson is out of contract at the end of season 2022 and Melbourne wants him to extend his stay with the former Australian under-17 basketballer developing faster than many expected culminating in his ruck work in the grand final helping to turn the game to the Demons in the third term.

Demons list manager Tim Lamb shot down any suggestion they had talked with the Dockers about Jackson.
“At no time, has there ever been a conversation internally, or with Fremantle, about Luke Jackson,†Lamb told AFL trade radio.
“I can categorically say that has never occurred.
“He’s out of contract at the end of next season, we’re talking with his manager and happy with where it sits.â€
Collingwood football general manager Graham Wright isn’t exactly sure what draft pick will seal the deal with Western Bulldogs to bring Patrick Lipinski to his club.
But he hopes a deal can get done before trade period closes.
“We don’t have any clarity on where the deal for Patrick Lipinski sits with the Bulldogs. You’d like to think it gets done,†Wright told AFL trade radio on Friday.
“The pre-season draft is always there, but I’ve never done that before. It’s part of what could happen but there is some goodwill between the two sides.â€
Clubs are well aware of Hawthorn’s willingness to discuss any offers for their midfielders Tom Mitchell, Jaeger O’Meara and Chad Wingard if they can get higher into the draft.
But, at this stage, few doors are open as there is little liquidity in the football economy and very few clubs have high picks.

The Dockers are one of the few clubs with both cap space and early picks but it would need a turnaround in their thinking for them to move.
The Hawks are genuinely interested in Collingwood ruckman Max Lynch but there remains some water to go under the bridge before meaningful discussions start.
The AFL draft order is still moving around as teams potentially trade picks and compensation selections are added to the board but here is our presumptive AFL draft order.
You can see how the picks stack up in order or break it down team by team and see which selections your club has.
The AFL draft is set for November 24-25.
There are a few players that are still reportedly available or looking to make a move but updates on talks have gone a bit quiet.
Richmond big man Callum Coleman-Jones and his move to North Melbourne was much talked about on opening day of trade period but both sides were a distance apart in terms of what the Roos should be sending to the Tigers for his services.

It will be interesting to hear if things have improved or if those talks will go into next week.
Hawthorn’s Jon Ceglar and Port Adelaide’s Peter Ladhams are two players who are continually being brought up and both look set to leave their clubs but it doesn’t appear deals have been finalised yet.
Ceglar looks to be a good fit for the Bulldogs or Cats if they can find the right deal while Ladhams looks a chance to move to Sydney who have followed him closely.
He could be a good back-up to ruckman Tom Hickey.
There were so many deals made yesterday that perhaps today could be a catch-up day with few deals completed, time will tell on that one.
Essendon, yet to make a trade during this trade period, are keen to acquire an additional first-round draft choice for 2021, in a strategy that Melbourne successfully deployed in recent years.
AFL industry sources confirmed that the Bombers, who enter the draft with pick 11, but no further choices inside 50, are willing to trade their 2022 first-round pick for a first-rounder in the 2021 national draft, to be held in late November. If no club is willing to do a first-round swap, there is also the possibility of trading in second-round choices.

The logic behind trading the 2022 pick for one this year would be to create a cluster of players who come through together, a pattern that Melbourne followed when the Demons traded future first-round choices into the upcoming draft in 2015, 2019 and 2020.
