The 2018 AFL season will be the 122nd season in the Australian Football League contested by the Carlton Football Club. The club's women's team will also contest its second season of the AFL Women's competition, and will field a team in the VFL Women's competition for the first time.

Club summary

The 2017 AFL season will be the 122nd season of the VFL/AFL competition since its inception in 1897; and, having competed in every season, it will also be the 122nd season contested by the Carlton Football Club. Carlton will continue its alignment with the Northern Blues in the Victorian Football League, allowing Carlton-listed players to play with the Northern Blues when not selected in AFL matches. Carlton's primary home ground will continued to be the Melbourne Cricket Ground; traditional home ground Ikon Park continued to serve as the training and administrative base. The club will also field its women's team in the second season of the AFL Women's competition, running in February and March.[1] Ikon Park will serve as the home ground for AFL Women's matches.

Car manufacturer Hyundai, which had been a major sponsor of the club continuously since 2008,[2] and airline Virgin Australia, which had upgraded from a secondary sponsor to a major sponsor during the 2017 season,[3] continued as the club's two major sponsors, each signing a five-year extension to their existing deals.[4]

Senior Personnel

Mark LoGiudice will continue as club president, a role he has held since June 2014.[5] CEO Steven Trigg resigned shortly after the 2017 season, and he was replaced by Richmond Chief Customer Officer Cain Liddle.[6]

The club's coaching staff underwent some changes before the 2018 season. Director of Coaching Neil Craig retired from the football industry at the end of 2017 after more than four decades as a player and coach; his replacement is yet to be announced.[7] Former player and development coach David Teague, who had been most recently serving as forward-line coach at Adelaide, returned to Carlton as an assistant coach.[8] Recently retired Essendon midfielder Brent Stanton and Geelong Football League coach Jason Davenport both joined the club as development coaches.[9]

Playing list changes

The following summarises all player changes which occurred after the 2017 season. Unless otherwise noted, draft picks refer to selections in the 2017 AFL draft.

As in the 2016/17 offseason, Bryce Gibbs was linked to Adelaide during the trade period. Originally South Australian, Gibbs was three years into a five-year contract, but sought a return to Adelaide for family reasons, nominating the Adelaide Crows as his preferred destination.[12] No deal had been reached during the 2016/17 offseason, but successful negotiations in this offseason saw Gibbs traded to Adelaide for draft picks. Carlton made three recruits during the trade period, and entered the 2017 draft with two selections in the top ten.

VFL Women's

Prior to the 2018 season, Carlton was one of five AFL clubs granted a licence in the VFL Women's competition, as part of a significant reconfiguration of that competition which saw all Victorian-based AFL clubs taking a direct or affiliative involvement in a VFLW team. Carlton will field a women's team, branded as the Carlton Blues, in the VFLW competition from the 2018 season onwards.[39]

Northern Blues

The Carlton Football Club will a full affiliation with the Northern Blues during the 2018 season. It will be the sixteenth season of the clubs' affiliation, which had been in place since 2003. Carlton senior- and rookie-listed players who are not selected to play in the Carlton team will be eligible to play for the Northern Blues senior team in the Victorian Football League. The club's home matches will be split between the VFL club's traditional home ground Preston City Oval, and Carlton's traditional home ground Ikon Park.
