The AFLW trade period is closing in. The times and dates haven’t been locked in, but are expected to be announced following key AFL meetings in early May.
Despite that, clubs are already deep in discussions with players about what the future holds and rumours are rife.
Putting specifics aside, here’s what all 14 AFLW teams need from the upcoming trade period.

Round 6 of the AFLW season has been released – the highlight of which is a blockbuster clash between Collingwood and the Western Bulldogs at Victoria Park on Sunday.
For several other teams, this is just about the last roll of the dice, with the Giants’ finals hopes hinging on a tough home clash with the Brisbane Lions in what will be the first AFL or AFLW match to be played in Canberra since August 2019.
St Kilda’s finals aspirations will also go on the line when they face Melbourne at Casey Fields, while we will have our first return clash in AFLW history when the West Coast Eagles and Fremantle contest the second Western Derby of the season, to be played with fans in attendance.
