Overview
- Voss, who resigned Tuesday, departs after a 1-8 start marked by repeated second-half fade-outs that compounded pressure on his position.
- Former Collingwood ruckman Josh Fraser has been installed as interim coach and will lead the Blues against the Western Bulldogs on Saturday night.
- Carlton says it is in “genuine transition,” with CEO Graham Wright and football boss Chris Davies leading a structured search for a new senior coach and a plan to prioritise the draft.
- Voss led a 2023 preliminary final and leaves with a 47-1-51 record from 99 games, telling AFL.com.au he knew before last week’s Brisbane match it would be his last and that he is at peace with the decision.
- Heavy turnover of players and senior staff — including the exits of Charlie Curnow, Tom De Koning and Jack Silvagni — and a shift toward more attacking league tactics have been cited as factors behind the slide and the club’s youth-first reset.
