North Melbourne midfielder Will Phillips is reportedly set to "assess his options" at the end of the season.

With his contract set to expire and limited game time in 2024, rival clubs believe he's on the lookout for consistent senior opportunities after toiling away in the VFL for the majority of the year to date.

News broke that the former Pick 3 is keeping an eye out for his future, which begs the question of which club could be a suitor.

Could it be the youthful Richmond who is set to lose Dustin Martin and Dion Prestia to retirement sooner rather than later?

Or West Coast, who are looking to bolster their midfield stocks around Harley Reid into the foreseeable future?

3. Adelaide

Adelaide's midfield has begun to look pedestrian and the loss of Izak Rankine to a hamstring injury made matters worse.

Matt Crouch and Rory Laird play similar, combative football while Harry Schoenberg and Sam Berry are the former pairs reincarnate.

Jordan Dawson has proven to be a match-winner from the centre but clearly needs assistance.

Josh Rachele poses as an immediate fix while Phillips can add another dynamic to Matthew Nicks' midfield.

Unlikely to guarantee more senior football opportunities, the Kangaroos youngster would likely be in the mix each week but could be promoted as the replacement for the Crows' veteran players.
