For 10 clubs, the end of the home and away season means their attention quickly turns to list management, with the AFL Draft often the highlighted avenue for addition.
This year's first 10 picks are expected to see a trio of clubs hold multiple selections in the first half of night one, while a handful of clubs that aren't playing finals don't have selections in the first round.
However, for all 10 non-finals sides, there are plenty of prospects to keep an eye on, and it's likely they'll be available on draft night for the next stage of their respective list builds.
Here we've played matchmaker, linking a 2025 draft prospect with each of the bottom 10 teams.

7. St Kilda
Mitch Marsh
When the Saints' first selection comes is a bit of a mystery. As things currently stand, they have Pick 7, which may balloon close to Pick 12 due to anticipated Academy and father-son bids early in night one.
The good news for the Saints is that they'll likely remain in the sweet spot of the draft and still have access to a top-line talent.
Marsh is one who could be the best player still available when St Kilda do come on the clock, with the South Australian forward arguably the best forward at this year's National Championships.
While he may only stop the tape at 191cm, Marsh plays much taller and remains an aerial threat, while his medium-sized frame still allows him to clean up grounded balls.
He could be a nice fit for the Saints, who continue to plan around spearhead Max King for the future.
