With so many big names coming out-of-contract at the end of the season, the Zero Hanger thought we would have some fun and fantasised about some blockbuster moves.
We've compiled a list of 10 massive moves that could happen by the end of the season - some slightly more outlandish than others. We're not saying ALL of these will happen, but believe they are all possibilities.
We haven't stopped at just players - with a couple of bombshell coaching moves also put forward.
Here is our list of 10 huge hypothetical end-of-season moves.
10. Alastair Clarkson to replace Simon Goodwin at Melbourne, Sam Mitchell to coach Hawks
It's a crunch-time year for Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin, given the list he has at his potential.
They made the preliminary final in 2018, only to slump down to the bottom two in 2019, prompting fans and pundits alike to question as to whether or not the Dees overachieved, or that their 17th-placed finish was an aberration. Season 2020 was a lot better in comparison to the year previous, but they threw games away that they should've won - such as games against Fremantle and Sydney.
The Dees could face another season which sees them miss finals altogether and it could spell the end of Goodwin's tenure as coach, despite having another year to run. Another coach that could leave with an extra year to run on his current deal is Alastair Clarkson, with a ton of speculation about his future beyond this year.
Given that Clarkson has had history with the Dees as a player, the planets could align for one of the greatest coaches of the modern era to link up with a one of the longest current premiership droughts in the AFL.
As a bit of a bonus to who would potentially replace Clarkson at the Hawks, Sam Mitchell would sound like a fairytale fit. Given that he moved from West Coast as an Assistant coach to the Hawks.
