Brownlow medallist Patrick Dangerfield has not ruled out a player strike during the JLT Community Series if the collective bargaining agreement is not resolved by February.
AFLPA delegates will gather in Torquay on Thursday and Friday to discuss the unresolved CBA with Dangerfield saying all possibilities will be canvassed.
"It's not until we get together as an entire playing group [that] we'll discuss those things but nothing is off the table at the moment," Dangerfield said.
Dangerfield, a member of the AFLPA board, said there was a chance players wouldn't take part in the pre-season competition if a resolution could not be reached.
"It's a chance. I'm not saying it's a definite possibility but certainly if nothing gets done then we need to look at all avenues in order to secure a deal," he said.
He hoped AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan would be able to hear the issues important to players, who, according to Dangerfield, were united in their resolve to have their demands met.
"We have a clear direction from all 850 players … and it is not until we satisfy our needs as players that we will be satisfied," Dangerfield said.
The AFLPA is pushing hard for a percentage share of total revenue, excluding items such as government grants and gambling, after the AFL reached a six-year, $2.5 billion broadcast rights deal.
CEO Paul Marsh claimed last week the players had "no incentive to drive more revenue for the competition " unless the revenue sharing model was in place.
The AFL is determined to strike an agreement that provides players with fair wages, while not limiting the League's capacity to invest in areas critical to the long-term growth of the game.
