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.
Here we've named each club's biggest looming contract call ahead of the off-season.

Matt Owies
One of the better-rated players across the competition who doesn't have a contract for 2025, with Owies sitting third at Princes Park this year for goals - behind Coleman Medal pairing Charlie Curnow and Harry McKay.
The small-medium forward market has shifted in recent months after Tyson Stengle and Will Hayward recommitted to their respective clubs, with any side keen for ground-level attacking assets likely to have Owies in their sights.
The Blues will do what they can to fend off any external interest given the club's inconsistent small forward options outside of Owies this season.
