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.
Gold Coast
Reported Trade Targets:
Off-Contract Players: Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, Zak Evans
Confirmed Departures: Cooper Bell (delisted), Asher Eastham (delisted), Caleb Graham (delisted), Nick Holman (retired), Ben King (free agent)
Draft Hand: 60
The Suns loom large in the trade space this year as they deal with Hawthorn over Ben King and what he is worth.
If King leaves via free agency, Gold Coast will receive Pick 7 as compensation; however, recent reports suggest the Suns want more for their star goal kicker and could force a trade with the Hawks.
Another watch on the off-season is whether Gold Coast sign Jamarra Ugle-Hagan on another one-year contract or delist the troubled forward.
Star midfielder Matt Rowell is believed to be staying at the club for at least one more season before considering his free agency options.
