Bio
Selected by Carlton with pick 15 in the 2023 Rookie Draft, Matthew Carroll was recruited from the Sandringham Dragons as a versatile defender known for his intercept marking and adaptability. He broke into the senior side in 2024, utilised primarily across half-back where his reading of the play allowed him to support the defensive structure. While he demonstrated the capacity to compete at the top level, he faced stiff competition for a regular spot in the Blues' backline, resulting in intermittent appearances over his first few campaigns. Entering the 2026 season, Carroll occupies a position on the fringe of the best 22, looking to build consistency and secure a permanent role in the defensive rotation.
