Over 200 AFL players are still without deals for 2025, with all 18 clubs having at least one big name still unsigned beyond the current season and facing some level of uncertainty around their future.
From captains to premiership stalwarts, emerging young guns to stars in demand, there is a plethora of big names who have decisions to make over the coming months.
Some clubs have a heap of work to do in the list management space to retain key figures for the coming years, while others have been busy throughout the year so far to decrease their list of off-contract names.
