It is the club's men's team's 128th season as a member of the Australian Football League, and the third under senior coach Michael Voss. The club's women's team will contest its ninth season of the AFL Women's. The club will also field its men's reserves team in the Victorian Football League and its state level women's team in the VFL Women's.
Club summary
The 2024 AFL season is the 128th season of the VFL/AFL competition since its inception in 1897; and, having competed in every season, it is also the 128th season contested by the Carlton Football Club. The club will also field its women's team in the ninth season of the AFL Women's competition, its men's reserves team in its seventh Victorian Football League season, and its VFL women's team in its sixth VFL Women's season.
As in 2023, Carlton's primary home ground is Marvel Stadium and secondary home ground is the Melbourne Cricket Ground, with the team playing six home games at the former and five at the latter.[1] Traditional home ground Ikon Park continues to serve as the training and administrative base, and as the home ground for AFL Women's and the men's reserves matches.
Car manufacturer Hyundai, which had been a major sponsor of the club continuously since 2008,[2] and Great Southern Bank, which became a major sponsor during the 2021 season, continued as the club's major sponsors through the 2024 season;[3] in March, Great Southern Bank signed an extension to its major sponsorship of the club through until the end of 2027.[4]
Senior personnel
Luke Sayers will continue in his third year as president, Brian Cook in his third year as CEO, and Michael Voss in his third year as senior coach of the club. Prior to the season, Cook and Voss signed contract extensions to remain at the club until the end of 2025 and 2026 respectively.[5] Patrick Cripps will continue in his third year as sole club captain and sixth year overall (having served as co-captain with Sam Docherty for three years). The number of vice-captains was increased from two to three to make up the broader leadership group, with Charlie Curnow appointed a new vice captain, and Jacob Weitering and Sam Walsh continuing in the role.[6] The coaching panel was mostly steady from 2023, the only change being former player Jordan Russell joining as the forward line assistant coach, with Ashley Hansen promoted to senior assistant coach.[7]
