Delisted Free Agent Watch 2022

[GVGjr]

Yes Enright I meant - and Lonegan was a defender.
Hamling just wasn't getting a look in at Geelong though, opportunity absolutely was an issue.

Sam Collins - delisted by Freo - is now the cornerstone of Gold Coast's defence. I do think in some cases, opportunity is absolutely an issue.

In the main players are delisted because they aren't quite measuring up in the AFL particularly because of limited spots but there are plenty of examples like Sam Collins and it's why clubs are always wanting to find a player through the DFA as a lot of the hard work and time required to develop players has already been done.

You should never dismiss players just because they have been rejected by other clubs.

That's right. BAD has a whole list of other reasons to use instead.

Yep. Not just with delistings but getting players for next to nothing trade wise.

Very much the case with rucks - Nankervis, Witts, Hickey obvious examples

Very funny.

My comment was there is a reason why players are on the delisted list. Make of it what you will.

I make of it that they either aren't going to be super-duper Bontempelli stars but my still become valuable members of a team that can utilise their strengths potentially (EG Hamling or many rucks) or they have external issues that need fixing (eg Stengle).

Reasons exist for a club to delist them which means they're far from a sure bet but there can be great value still

Anyone specifically F'Scary? I've had a look at some of the options and none have appealed so far.

Sydney Stack. Let's turn him into a small crumbing forward or an off the bench specialist. Worth a punt.
