North Melbourne have freed up four list spots with their latest crop of list calls, delisting Curtis Taylor, Bigoa Nyoun, Tyler Sellers and Hamish Free ahead of an active off-season for the Kangaroos.
24-year-old Curtis Taylor is the biggest story of the lot, having played 76 games for the Roos from his debut in 2019, averaging 15 disposals in 2022 before falling somewhat out of favour recently.
He played eight matches in 2024, averaging 11 touches and four marks.
23-year-old Bigoa Nyoun played just four senior matches in his three-year career with North Melbourne, impressing in his first outing of 2024 with 19 disposals and seven marks in a loss to Geelong.
Being a 197cm tall, a rival club somewhere may look to secure his services and potentially get more out of his talents.
22-year-old Tyler Sellers was a 2024 supplementary selection who played just two senior games this season, unfortunately featuring in two rough losses to Geelong and Hawthorn without much contribution.
26-year-old Hamish Free never made the senior side after being picked in Round 2 of the 2022 Rookie Draft.
The West-Australian stands 203cm and could be looked at by rivals, especially those lacking ruck depth.
North Melbourne GM of Football Todd Viney expressed his dismay over the calls but thanked his outgoing shinboners for their respective contributions to the club.
“Curtis became a popular member of the playing group across his six seasons at North Melbourne, and we thank him for all his efforts and dedication to our program during his time here,” he said.
“We also thank Bigoa, Tyler and Hamish for all their efforts and dedication during their respective time at the club.
“It's always tough having to make these kinds of decisions, and we wish all four men well for the future.”
