Carl Webb (born 20 March 1981 in Mount Isa, Queensland) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer of the 2000s and 2010s. An Australian international and Queensland State of Origin representative forward, he played in the National Rugby League for the Brisbane Broncos, North Queensland Cowboys and Parramatta Eels.
Of Indigenous Australian and New Zealand descent, Webb was playing for the Toowoomba Clydesdales before playing for the Brisbane Broncos
After made his NRL debut for the Brisbane Broncos in 2000 against the North Queensland Cowboys. The next year he made his debut in State of Origin, representing Queensland, scoring one try. He won the 2001 Brisbane Broncos season's Rookie of the Year award but a combination of inconsistent form and injuries saw him in and out of first grade until he was contracted to the North Queensland Cowboys for the 2005 season
Webb had a strong start to the 2005 NRL season, earning a position in the Queensland Maroons. Injury impeded his season and he was later suspended for punching, forcing him to watch the 2005 NRL Grand final loss to the Tigers from the sidelines. Webb was selected at second-row forward for Game II of the 2006 State of Origin series, scoring a try. In 2007, Webb again started the season strongly, but suffered a broken jaw early in the season. He returned to the field in round 8.
