The season of brutal list calls and cuts is well underway, with 82 players already placed on the outer after not being offered a new contract for 2023.
While a small portion of these players may gain lifelines with another club, most are set to step into life after professional football.
Plenty of players on this year's unlucky list are more than worthy of remaining in the AFL and extending their careers from next season.
Here's a breakdown of every player that has been delisted this year.
