Levi Casboult

Who is Levi Casboult?

Levi Casboult is an Australian rules footballer, currently listed at the Carlton Football Club in the Australian Football League.

Casboult, a tall and solidly built player, spent much of his formative years as a ruckman and key position player. Casboult began to play TAC Cup football with the Dandenong Stingrays in 2007. He played a total of 44 games with the Stingrays; in his first two seasons, he scored only three goals, but in 2009 he was moved into a key forward role and scored 41 goals in 20 matches.

Casboult was recruited by the Carlton Football Club with its third round selection in the 2010 AFL Rookie Draft. His first month at the club was eventful. Before the 2009 Christmas break, Casboult attended the team's controversial booze cruise; it was widely reported in the media that, in an initiation game, Casboult was handcuffed to an unnamed senior player and forced to match him drink-for-drink until barely conscious. A few days later, on 24 December, Casboult was fortunate to walk away uninjured from in a head-on car accident: his car was struck by the car of Samir Azemi, which had jumped the median strip on the Princes Highway in Dandenong. Azemi was killed in the accident.
