The first AFL delisted free agency window of the year opens on Monday morning, with culled players on the lookout for a new club over the next month and into summer ahead of the 2026 season.

Delisted free agency presents a chance for players to be signed to the primary lists, with this window giving clubs the option to swoop on players who are without contracts ahead of the AFL Draft.

West Coast are set to be the biggest player in this space, given their four extra rookie list spots handed to them as part of their AFL assistance package.

Former Brisbane midfielder Deven Robertson is all but locked to join the Eagles, while Finlay Macrae and Harry Schoenberg have been touted as genuine candidates to sign with the club.

GWS have committed to Essendon's Jayden Laverde after he was farewelled from the Bombers.

A watch will be on two-time premiership player Callum Ah Chee, who requested a trade to Adelaide but failed to move during the designated period.

Carlton will consider Elijah Hollands and Will White as train-on options following the National Draft.

As a result, he is expected to be signed through the pre-season draft by the Crows. He is, however, available to be swooped on by rivals, with cross-town rivals Port Adelaide potentially considering making a play for the utility.

Mason Cox has revealed that he has spoken to a few clubs about extending his career, as has Alex Sexton, who has been linked with the Eagles.

Young midfielders Ted Clohesy and Ben Hobbs have been brought up in Richmond discussions. The same goes for Ryan Burton and Carlton.
