Darren Hulme (born 19 July 1977) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Carlton.
Hulme played junior football for the Frankston Bombers, and the Dandenong Stingrays in the TAC Cup.
Very small in stature, but tough and hard at the ball, Hulme played primarily as a midfielder and/or tagger with stints in the forward-line.
He went on to be a solid contributor for Carlton over a career spanning eight years, including a fifth-placing in the 2003 Best and Fairest, and tying with Craig Bradley and Adrian Hickmott for the Peter Sullivan Memorial Trophy (most votes in the Brownlow Medal by a Carlton player) in 2001.
Since being delisted, Hulme has continued to play state and local football for a wide range of teams: Mansfield (GVFL) in 2005;[2] Karingal (MPNFL Peninsula Division) in 2006 and 2007;[3] Clayton (SFL) as playing coach in 2008;[4] Bendigo (VFL), as playing assistant coach in 2009;[5] a return to Karingal in 2010,[6] and then back to his junior team, Frankston Bombers (MPNFL Nepean Division) in 2011 and 2012.
