Carlton has officially appointed Josh Fraser as its full-time senior coach, marking a significant step in the club's strategy for the upcoming AFL season. The decision comes after Fraser spent the past two seasons as an interim coach, guiding the team through a challenging period.
Fraser, who was initially selected as a top draft pick, has transitioned from player to coach, bringing a deep understanding of the club's culture and expectations. His appointment was confirmed by Carlton chief executive Graham Wright, who highlighted Fraser's leadership and tactical acumen as key factors in the decision.
The move is seen as a long-term investment in the club's future, with Fraser set to play a central role in shaping the team's direction. His experience, both as a player and interim coach, is expected to provide stability and continuity as Carlton looks to rebuild and compete at the top of the league.
Fraser's full-time role begins with the pre-season, as the club prepares for the new competition season.
