I think the key difference with Josh Toy being a free agent is that in the end he was delisted from the GCS by the club after refusing to sign a contract.  A player such as Ben Jacobs, refused a contract and asked to be removed from the list, so in fact delisted himself.  Ben Jacobs is thus NOT a free agent.  Josh Toy is.

At least I think that is how it works...... :rollin
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

that just makes no sense at all and reeks of crap............but i think you may be right.
Quote
A player has served seven seasons or fewer of AFL football at one club, and is now out of contract.
The player is not eligible for free agency if his club wishes to retain him. He may only move clubs via a trade or the draft. If he delists himself, he is subject to the draft, and may be selected by any club.

so how I see it is, if you knock back a contract, but as long as the club delists you, which they would have to do when the primary list announcements are made (?) and you have not signed a contract, then you become a free agent.

if you delist yourself, then you dont become a free agant and have to enter the draft.

so why would anyone delist themself?

if this is the case, then this is just mental, but then again, it is the AFL.

surely clubs couldn't keep a player on their list who has not signed a contract, which would create a loophole for anyone to become a free agent at any time?

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

If a club offers you a contract and holds you until draft time then bad luck you have to go through the draft.

so they can keep an uncontracted player on the list for the first couple of list lodgments?

Correct. I believe they clear them off for LL2.

From someone who knows Josh, his heart "problems" are over-exaggerated in the media.

He's done medicals with 5 clubs that I know of (Rich, Haw, North Melb, WB, Ess).

So it would seem clubs are doing their due dilligence.

It seems we've already narrowed down the field for our two rookie selections - one of Toy or mini Maric :P and one of Stephenson or Wood  :P.
