The 2026 AFL Trade Period is in the books, and the delisted free agent mechanism will open as another avenue clubs can use to improve their list.
Jake Stringer will join St Kilda as a delisted free agent, while North Melbourne is set to sign Elijah Tsatas and Samson Ryan.
Former Saint Isaac Keeler is pushing for an AFL lifeline at Port Adelaide, and was spotted training with members of the club earlier this week.
Wil Parker is all but locked in to arrive at Carlton in November on a two-year deal once the delisted free agency period opens.
Former Western Bulldogs forward Dom Bedendo has signed with Fremantle as a DFA after spending the past two years in the VFL.
But who'll follow next? Here we've listed ANOTHER 10 promising delisted free agents and a club that could suit their services.
Conor Stone
Essendon
The former Pick 15 was delisted by the Giants earlier this month, which could open the door to many rivals, particularly in Victoria, to come calling.
Stone received heavy interest from Essendon in previous years but ultimately remained with GWS as he sought more senior opportunities.
The Bombers now loom as a perfect destination if he were to continue his AFL career.
Mark McVeigh is looking for tough, uncompromising established players, and Stone would've been trained hard at the Giants.
He also fits the bill of age demographic, while his versatility is another important point to note.
