Michael Voss (born 7 July 1975) is a former professional Australian rules football player with the Brisbane Bears and Brisbane Lions, and current senior coach of the Carlton Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Voss was a triple premiership captain with the Brisbane Football Club.[1] He was also the first Brisbane player to win the Brownlow Medal (1996), which is considered the game's most prestigious individual award; won the Leigh Matthews Trophy twice (2002 and 2003), which is awarded annually to the league's most valued player; and has been inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame.[2] Additionally, he represented Australia in the 2006 International Rules Series. As a player, he was noted for his fearless play, inspirational leadership, and the ability to turn a game. As coach, Voss led Carlton to its first finals birth since 2013, coming back from 15th on the premiership ladder to ultimately finish the season in 3rd place, losing to Brisbane in a Preliminary Final.
