With each new AFL season seeing rising stars stake their claim as the best in their respective position, the All-Australian team often welcomes some fresh faces for the first time.

A total of seven players earned their maiden All-Australian selections in 2024, with that number down from the 12 first-time selections made in both 2023 and 2022.

This year could see a rise in maiden All-Australians named in the final side, with some of the game's best still yet to be fitted for a blazer.

Here we've listed nine players yet to receive their first All-Australian selection who should come close in 2025.

3. Tom Green

The Giants bull somehow went without a squad selection last year despite leading the competition for disposals and managing the second most contested possessions, with Green also polling 27 Brownlow votes to make his pedigree more evident.

Set to enter his prime years - if he isn't there already - Green is sure to be in the All-Australian conversations for 2025, hoping to go one better than his 2023 squad nod.

The Giants will want to be near the top four again this year to stake their claim as a true premiership threat, with Green to carry a larger workload given the number of experienced heads that departed the club over the off-season.

Veteran teammate Stephen Coniglio is yet to fetch a blazer and might've missed his chance, while emerging midfielder Finn Callaghan looks primed to take the next step in his burgeoning career.
