It's officially the AFL off-season, with free agency opening on Friday and the 2025 Trade Period will follow just days later.
All 18 clubs look set to be active in the player movement space, with some busier than others in looking to lure talent through their doors.
St Kilda, Geelong and Brisbane look to be among the more aggressive clubs in chasing top-line talent, while clubs like Fremantle and Richmond are seemingly more likely to place more of a focus on the draft.
Here we've looked at every club's potential trade and free agency moves, their current crop of off-contract players, confirmed departures and draft hand for the off-season.

Sydney forward Jack Buller is keen on a move to Collingwood, per multiple reports. The Magpies have also been linked with contracted St Kilda tall Anthony Caminiti and Melbourne defender Steven May, likely hinting that Craig McRae could look to bolster his key defensive stocks. The priority for the Magpies remains in-house however, with sharpshooter Jamie Elliott still unsigned and in the sights of rival clubs. Veteran trio Brody Mihocek, Tom Mitchell and Mason Cox are also without deals for 2026, and could hit the open market.
