With all 18 lists coming together ahead of the 2022 season, we can finally begin to craft our thoughts as to who will be holding down spots in their respective squads for the year ahead.
Whether it was through the trade window, free agency, drafting or SSP, clubs have both gained and lost talent since the end of last season.
Add in the development of emerging names and the retirement of veterans across the competition, and it's likely every club will have a different best 22 compared to how they shaped last season.
We take a look at every club's list and name their best side for the 2022 AFL season.
Adelaide
The Crows will enter the 2022 season with overflowing optimism as they continue in their strategic list rebuild under senior coachย Matthew Nicks.
Having placed great attention on recruiting from the draft, as well as acquiringย Swansย gunย Jordan Dawsonย via the past trade window, the Crows were able to prolifically add to their youthful squad ahead of another year that is set to show great examples of hope for the future.
Having culled veteran pairย Tom Lynchย andย Daniel Taliaย early into their off-season,ย Adelaideย sent a clear message of their intentions as they shape a return to premiership contention.
