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.
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. Ikon Park will serve as the home ground for AFL Women's matches.
Mark LoGiudice will continue as club president, a role he has held since June 2014. CEO Steven Trigg resigned shortly after the 2017 season, and he was replaced by Richmond Chief Customer Officer Cain Liddle.
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. 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. Recently retired Essendon midfielder Brent Stanton and Geelong Football League coach Jason Davenport both joined the club as development coaches.
