The Saints will be an intriguing figure come the off-season's arrival, with senior coach Ross Lyon set to have his first window of wheeling and dealing in 2023 after arriving at Moorabbin following the conclusion of last year's exchange period.
Currently, St Kilda have several senior figures heading toward the cessation of the season without a deal for next year, meaning opportunities are still on the horizon for the Moorabbin-based club.
After missing out on target Tom De Koning, the Saints are likely to have turned their attention elsewhere in recent weeks, and here we assess who they could look at to bolster their list.
Mostly considering off-contract players from across the competition, we name five potential targets for the Saints to consider.

2. Liam Henry
Henry is a name that has already been tied to the Saints this season, with the Dockers wingman likely to see a queue for his services forming once the off-season arrives.
After starting the season out of favour at Fremantle, Henry has taken his chance since returning to AFL level midway through the year in putting up career-best numbers across the board.
The Dockers have moved to sign up Sam Switkowski, Lachie Schultz, Bailey Banfield, Michael Frederick, Michael Walters and Sam Sturt over the past 18 months, with Henry looming as the odd man out.
While Fremantle have stated they're keen to retain Henry's services, the ball is well and truly in the young speedster's court.
A move to St Kilda would give the Saints that run and carry on the outside of their midfield group, working under Brad Hill and alongside the likes of Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera and Dan McKenzie on the flanks.
