The VFL's off-season of player movement has been one of the busiest in recent memory, with exited AFL names, state league stars and overlooked draft talent all finding new homes for 2025.

With the VFL's season start just over a month away, we've looked at the headline moves and signings across the competition as the premiership race prepares to take shape.

Here we named 11 of the best signings ahead of the 2025 VFL season

The delisted Roos youngster was considered unlucky not to be offered another chance in the AFL, whether that be at Arden Street or elsewhere.

The long-kicking midfield-forward has plenty to offer as a raw talent yet to reach his peak, with Collingwood coming away with one of the signings of the summer in Taylor.

In his sixth season with the Roos, Taylor played eight AFL games for averages of 10.75 disposals, 3.75 marks and 2.25 tackles while positioned as the sub on multiple occasions.

His form in the VFL was a bit more promising, averaging 15.6 touches, 5.9 marks and 3.7 tackles along with four goals from his seven appearances last year.
