The 2022 AFL season will be the 126th season in the Australian Football League contested by the Carlton Football Club, and the sixth AFL Women's season contested by its senior women's team.
Club summary[]
The 2022 AFL season will be the 126th season of the VFL/AFL competition since its inception in 1897; and, having competed in every season, it will also be the 126th season contested by the Carlton Football Club. The club will also field its women's team in the sixth season of the AFL Women's competition, its men's reserves team in its fifth Victorian Football League season, and its women's reserves team in its fourth VFL Women's season.
In a change from the previous seven seasons, Carlton's primary home ground will be Marvel Stadium and secondary home ground will be 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 will continue 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 2022 season.[3]
Senior personnel[]
Early in the 2021 season, a change in the presidency was announced, with club director and former PriceWaterhouseCoopers CEO Luke Sayers taking over from eight-year president Mark Lo Giudice immediately after the end of the 2021 season.[4] As part of the transition, and in response to the club's weaker than expected start to the 2021 season, a comprehensive review of the club's football department was undertaken in the second half of 2021, which was conducted by Sayers, CEO Cain Liddle, and external panel members Matthew Pavlich, Geoff Walsh and Graham Lowe.[5] Following the report, a wide range of senior personnel changes changes were made at the club. Sayers officially became president on August 17, 2021, one round before the 2021 season's end.[6]
Chief among the changes was the sacking of senior coach David Teague, after two seasons of his initial three year contract. Although his 21–29 win–loss record bettered those of his two predecessors (Mick Malthouse's 19–32–1 and Brendon Bolton's 16–61), interviews conducted during the review found Teague's coaching methods and gameplan were supported by only 30% of the club's players and staff, with that support heavily slanted towards the younger players.[7] The review found that the gameplan focussed too heavily on attack at the expense of defense, was confusing for the players to execute, and that he was frequently outcoached by opposing coaches.[8]
Teague was replaced with Michael Voss, who was signed to a three-year contract. Voss had previously served as senior coach at Brisbane Lions (2009–2013) and assistant coach at Port Adelaide (2014–2021),[9] and had been a front-runner for the vacant Carlton senior coaching role in both 2008 and 2019, when Brett Ratten and Teague were appointed respectively.[10] The club made well publicised overtures to long-time senior coaches Alastair Clarkson (Hawthorn 2005–2021) and Ross Lyon (St Kilda 2007–2011 and Fremantle 2012–2019) as part of its search, with both declining the role.[11]
The review also identified deficiencies in the leadership, experience and development capabilities of the coaching staff. The assistant and development coaching panels underwent substantial changes, with ten-year assistant coach John Barker departing early in the review process,[12] six-year assistant Dale Amos and four-year development coach Brent Stanton sacked at the end of the season,[7] four-year assistant Cameron Bruce departing for a role at Brisbane Lions.[13] Joining the panel was: St Kilda assistant coach and former Carlton player of the 1990s Aaron Hamill as backline assistant coach;[14] Tim Clarke, for his second stint as Carlton's midfield assistant coach after three seasons at Gold Coast;[15] and Western Bulldogs assistant coach Ashley Hansen as forwards assistant coach.[16]
There were also several changes at the club's administrative level. Liddle was sacked after four years as CEO in the role, and replaced with Brian Cook, who had served 32 seasons in CEO roles with West Coast (1990–1998) and Geelong (1999–2021), overseeing five premierships at those clubs.[17] Four new additions were made to the club's board of directors: former player Greg Williams (as football director), Lincoln Indicators co-founder Tim Lincoln, communications strategist Lahra Carey and JPMorgan Australia and New Zealand chairman Robert Priestly; Jeanne Pratt, Chris Townshend and football director Chris Judd all departed.[8][7]
Onfield, Sam Docherty stepped aside from the co-captaincy and leadership group, doing so to focus on his recovery from treatment for testicular cancer with which he was diagnosed in August 2021. Docherty had served as co-captain with Patrick Cripps for the previous three seasons.[18] Cripps will continue as co-captain, with Sam Walsh and Jacob Weitering serving as vice-captains and no broader leadership group named.[19]
