Just three days of wheeling and dealing remain in the 2025 AFL Trade Period, which could still see upward of 20 players move clubs.
Some of the game's biggest names are in line to land elsewhere, with Christian Petracca, Charlie Curnow, Zach Merrett, Clayton Oliver and Rowan Marshall seeking moves.
Almost every club has some part to play in the trade period prior to Wednesday's 7:30pm (AEDT) deadline, whether that be moving for a player, bidding farewell to one, or helping facilitate a trade between two other sides.
Players like Leek Aleer and Bailey Humphrey have been part of the trade rumour mill over the past two weeks, but no clear landing spots have emerged, potentially adding to the deals that could be struck in the coming days.
Here, we look at 19 players potentially on the move, and the likelihood of those deals happening.
7Jy Simpkin to Collingwood
Verdict: Unlikely
While the Magpies might want Simpkin, and Simpkin might want to join the Magpies, satisfying North Melbourne might be too much for Collingwood.
Reports suggest two first-round picks is the asking price, which immediately makes things difficult for Collingwood, as they're without their opening pick for 2025 and won't be keen to part with their 2026 and 2027 firsts.
They would also be taking on a sizeable salary, giving them little upside overall if they even were to meet the Roos' demands.
A single first-round pick should get this done if all parties are of the view that Collingwood return to the top four next year and in 2027, however the Magpies might want a sweetener if they're taking on the entire contract.
