It's officially the AFL off-season, with free agency opening on Friday, and the 2026 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.
Hawthorn, Carlton and the Western Bulldogs pose as the busiest clubs in the off-season, while almost every team has been linked to a rival player.
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.
St Kilda
Reported Trade Targets: Jayden Short, Dan Houston, Sam Marshall, Lachie Whitfield, Rory Lobb.
Off-Contract Players: Jack Carroll, Dan Butler
Confirmed Departures: Dougal Howard (retired), Paddy Dow (delisted), Isaac Keeler (delisted), Patrick Said (delisted)
Draft Hand: 8, 44, 62
St Kilda will be an interesting watch in the player movement period.
Half-back energy looks to be an area of interest, with all of Jayden Short, Dan Houston and Lachie Whitfield linked - the latter looking the most likely.
If they were to bring in Whitfield, expect the Giants to seek a quality pick to ensure they can match a bid for Academy talent Ethan Matthews.
There also remains a watch on Alix Tauru, who has been exploring, but remains contracted next year, and Rowan Marshall has again requested a trade to Geelong.
Rory Lobb is also considering a move given the Dogs will land Jordon Butts, creating something of a backline squeeze.
