Carlton Blues 2026 Fixtures: Every Round Game, Every Opponent Date, Start-Times, Full Schedule, Venues.

GOOD: The Blues won’t have to leave Melbourne after Round 15! So, if they’re in with a chance to make a finals or wildcard round push, travel certainly won’t be a burden of any sort. Their first month of football before hitting Adelaide in Gather Round is also on the softer side, with particularly winnable fixtures against Richmond, Melbourne and North Melbourne after their Opening Round duel with Sydney.

BAD: Double-up matches against Brisbane, Collingwood, Fremantle and the Western Bulldogs hardly scream ‘easy’ for Michael Voss’ side. It’s hard to say definitively whether it’s a good or bad thing, but their seven prime time fixtures in the first half of the year could end up being a negative, given their poor performances on the big stage last year. If their form doesn’t turn swiftly, they could be the talk of Thursday and Friday night football for all the wrong reasons.

Fixture difficulty (based on double-ups): 9th-hardest
