In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.

The players who may still switch clubs
Nathan Schmook 
afl.com.au
October 16, 2014


FOR THOSE players who failed to find a new home during the NAB AFL Trade Period, there are still multiple chances left to continue their careers in 2015.

From November 1-12, players who have been cut adrift can be signed by the club of their choice in the first delisted free agent window.

There is a second window from November 14-19 and a third from November 28 to December 1, immediately after the 2014 NAB AFL Draft.

The traditional way for players to find a new home – in the era before free agency – was via the NAB AFL Pre-Season Draft, which this year will be held electronically on Wednesday, December 3.

Only those clubs with list space remaining can take part in the pre-season draft, with Jed Lamb the only player selected (by GWS) in last year's PSD.

This year's crop of hopefuls would be expected to find their way to new clubs as delisted free agents if they attract interest.

There are a number of players, however, who may head to the pre-season draft after trade negotiations between clubs proved fruitless.

Tim Membrey
The Sydney Swans forward is guaranteed to make his way to St Kilda, most likely through the PSD, after a trade couldn't be arranged. The Swans' first live selection in the draft is pick No.39, so St Kilda needed to offer a pick higher than that to immediately land Membrey.

Taylor Hunt
Squeezed out at Geelong, a trade couldn't be orchestrated for the run-with midfielder once it was telegraphed that he would be available as a delisted free agent. It is unclear whether he will find another home after 63 matches with the Cats.

Mitch Robinson
Another player who was clearly not going to be at his club in 2015, making him a delisted free agent prospect from early in the trade period. Clubs weren't going to hand over compensation to Carlton once they knew they could secure Robinson for free. That being said, there has been little interest in the midfielder.

Kane Lucas
Labelled a wanted player by Carlton early in the trade period, the out-of-contract midfielder is now without a guaranteed home for 2015. Lucas explored opportunities and was linked to both WA clubs, but they weren't prepared to trade for him. Could find a new home as a delisted free agent if the Blues don't re-contract him.

George Burbury
The Geelong forward attracted little interest in the trade period after briefly being linked to West Coast early in the piece. Managed just seven games with the Cats, suffering a broken jaw during the 2014 NAB Cup and a serious hamstring injury early in the season.
 
Jason Tutt
The speedster flagged his intention to leave the Western Bulldogs in the lead-up to the trade period but Thursday's 2pm deadline passed without any movement. Carlton is confident it can secure the 23-year-old via the pre-season draft.

Good comment though.

Why can't you post that calibre of stuff instead of the dribble you dish up here?
