Over 100 players are set to enter 2023 eligible for free agency, with several stars of the competition able to hit the market with some freedom next year.
Each club has at least three free agents next year, with at least one name sure to be atop their list of retention signings for the future.
Here we list each club's top re-signing priority heading into 2023.
North Melbourne
Ben McKay
One of the biggest fish eligible for free agency, McKay will likely enter the new year unsigned beyond 2023 and is sure to gain external interest throughout the course of his next campaign.
The Roos will move heaven and earth to retain their gun backman, whose brother, Harry, recommitted at Carlton on a stunning seven-year deal earlier this year.
Veteran trio Jack Ziebell, Todd Goldstein and Liam Shiels will all be weighing up their futures come the cessation of next season.
