Close to 100 AFL players have been delisted in 2024, with a handful more than worthy of another chance in the top flight.
Eight players cut from a club last year managed to find a new home for the most recent season, with Jeremy Sharp (Fremantle), Lachie Bramble (Western Bulldogs) and Patrick Voss (Fremantle) among the best bargain pickups.
With the first delisted free agency window opening on Friday, we've looked at ten recently culled players who could suit another AFL club for the 2025 season.
Here's what we've come up with...
5. Denver Grainger-Barras
West Coast
A second delisted WA youngster for the Eagles to consider, with Grainger-Barras looking to earn a second chance after a difficult time with Hawthorn.
The former Pick 6 selection managed just 28 games in the brown and gold across his four years with the Hawks, with form and injuries hampering his development as a promising key defender.
West Coast's tall backman ranks are lacking, with Tom Barrass' departure leaving only Harry Edwards and Jeremy McGovern as the club's leading options in Andrew McQualter's rearguard.
With McGovern toward the end of his career, options for the long haul will need to be considered at the draft, while Grainger-Barras is available as a cheap avenue who still has something to give.
