With only a week before the beginning of the 2026 AFL Finals series, the trade talk channels are set to hit fever pitch.
After this coming weekend, eight clubs will turn their attention to improving their list during the off-season in a bid to rise up the ladder next year, while the remaining 10 will push for premiership success.
As the weeks continue, more clubs will drop away from the flag chase, and silly season will take its place.
With plenty of names included in the trade and free agent conversation in 2026, we've listed every player each AFL team has been tied to so far this season.
Brisbane
The Lions have continued looking at improving their list, even as they hunt a third consecutive flag.
If the club loses Zac Bailey to Adelaide, they have gauged interest in Arthur Jones as a potential replacement. Jones has enjoyed a breakout year for the Bulldogs, and has gained interest from rival clubs.
Essendon defender Jordan Ridley also has a desire to head to Queensland, and views Brisbane as a potential landing spot.
