It's officially silly season as the AFL opens the start of the 2026 Trade Period.
Some moves were confirmed since the Free Agency window opened on Friday, but there's plenty more movement expected over the next 10 days.
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.
North Melbourne
Reported Trade Targets: Nick Murray, Jack Bowes, Jordan Ridley
Off-Contract Players: Cooper Harvey, Josh Goater, Luke Urquhart, River Stevens, Zane Duursma, Toby Pink
Confirmed Departures: Callum Coleman-Jones (delisted), Brayden George (delisted), Robert Hansen Jr (delisted), Bailey Scott (delisted)
Draft Hand: 5, 45, 64, 72
Priority 1A for Todd Viney and co (outside of naming a head coach) must be maximising what they can get in return for Zane Duursma.
Duursma was infamously selected by the Kangaroos when a little bloke by the name of Nick Watson was still available, and after failing to set the world alight in the same way as the best-and-fairest-winning Hawk, Duursma is looking to ply his trade in Melbourne's system.
It's unclear what North's asking price would be, given Duursma was a prized top-five selection merely three short seasons ago, but it's currently a long wait between picks in this year's intake.
A selection in the realm of Pick 24 feels fair.
It would appear that North have fallen behind their rivals in their pursuits of Jordan Ridley and Jack Bowes, meaning the onus is once again on the nucleus of high draft picks of years before to drive this club back up the ladder.
