We've put a player from every club under the microscope that need to put in a big pre-season.
Whether it's a young player that needs to break out or put on some size, a veteran that needs to rediscover a spark or a star returning form injury, the following names need a big summer.
Geelong
Josh Jenkins
After securing a deadline day move to Geelong and linking up with good mate Patrick Dangerfield, Josh Jenkins will now spend his pre-season proving his worth to the Geelong coaching staff. Following a difficult period in Adelaide after the 2017 Grand Final loss, the 30-year-old was keen for a change of scenery and the Cats provided the answer.
However, despite playing 147 games for the Crows and kicking 296 goals, the tall forward will have to battle with the likes of Esava Ratugolea and Darcy Fort to be Tom Hawkins' understudy and backup ruckman. After playing just 11 games last season, his lowest return since 2012, and spending time in Adelaide's SANFL reserve team, Jenkins will be determined to silence the critics and it all starts in pre-season.
