Who is off contract at your club?

As we near the beginning of the 2023 AFL season - which starts March 16 between Richmond and Carlton - we thought it would be wise to take a look at who is yet to sign with your club.

Between Free Agency and out-of-contracts, The Sporting News will take you through everyone who will be looking for new deals during the year.

AFL.com.au reported there's 103 Free Agents come the end of 2023, led by Essendon's Darcy Parish and North Melbourne's Ben McKay.

Jade Gresham, Harry Himmelberg and Tom Doedee also shape as some of the bigger names in the free agency pool.

Melbourne small forward Kysaiah Pickett is also another one to watch closely, as rival clubs will be looking at him during the season.

AFL Free Agency

To become a Free Agent, a player must be one of the following:

  • Players entering their eighth or ninth season and who are in the top 25 per cent of the club's earners are Restricted Free Agents
  • An Unrestricted Free Agent is a player who's spent eight years at one club but are outside the top 25 per cent of the club's earners or have spent 10+ years
  • Players who have been delisted at any stage of their career and are at the end of their contract automatically qualify as free agents
