Celine Moody (born 4 March 1997) is an Australian rules footballer playing for Carlton in the AFL Women's (AFLW). She has previously played for the Western Bulldogs.

Early life[edit]

Celine is the daughter of Peter Moody,[1] who trained the racehorse Black Caviar.[2] She has a twin sister, Breann Moody, who plays in the AFLW for Carlton. Both attended St Margaret's School, where they played football together. Throughout her junior career Moody usually played as a defender.[1] She trained as an information systems technician for the Australian Army[1] and took a four-year break from football.[3] On her return in 2018, Moody joined Carlton's VFL Women's side. She played 12 games, mostly as a forward and ruckwoman,[3] wearing number 36.[4]

AFLW career[edit]

Having not played football for the previous three years, Moody was eligible to join an AFLW club during the 2018 off-season as a rookie signing.[5] She was recruited by the Western Bulldogs as their second signing[3] and debuted in the opening round of the 2019 AFLW season in a victory over Adelaide at Norwood Oval.[6][7] It was revealed that Moody had signed a contract extension with the club on 16 June 2021, after playing every game possible for the club that season.[8]

In December 2023, Moody was traded to Carlton.[9]
