St Kilda has made a further list change for the 2021 season, delisting midfielder Ed Phillips.
Saints Head of List Management James Gallagher said it was a tough call that had to be made due to the climate of the industry.
โIt was a really hard conversation to have,โ Gallagher told the club website.
โItโs been a theme throughout this off-season, but unfortunately due to the situation our industry finds itself in, tough calls must be made.
โI have no doubt he has big things ahead of him and we wish him all the best with whatever comes next.โ
Phillips, 22, played 15 AFL games for the Saints since being drafted with Pick 56 in the 2016 National Draft.
He joins Matt Parker, Doulton Langlands, Ryan Abbott, Jack Bell, Jack Mayo, Logan Austin and retiree Nathan Brown in departing the club.
