The delisted players worth another shot according to Jack Riewoldt

2021-10-22T13:14+11:00

Richmond veteran Jack Riewoldt has run his eye over a few delisted or out of contract players who should receive an AFL lifeline.

Clubs have begun sorting their lists for 2022 ahead of the upcoming National Draft, with multiple options still available for clubs to re-list players who have been cut.

The three-time premiership Tiger sees quite a few players still capable of contributing at AFL level.

“There’s a few hidden gems I reckon for teams to come in and grab as delisted free agents,” Riewoldt told SEN Hobart.

“Here’s a couple of names for you. Charlie Constable, he’s always been on the fringe at the Cats, I think he’ll get another gig somewhere else.

“Jarrod Brander was floated as a trade and then somehow has ended up a delisted free agent, Trent Dumont as well.

“Tyson Stengle’s going to get another go and he’s done it the right way.

“I think the addition of Eddie Betts down at Geelong is going to have a massive impact for Stengle. Lived with him in Adelaide and will provide the platform off-field for Tyson to play his best footy down there at the Cattery.

“Levi Casboult’s an interesting one, he’s going to the Suns to fill a role up there.

“Jack Lonie, he’s a good little small forward, but has been pushed out a little bit by the younger small forwards that have come through from the Saints.

“One name, and I think he will stay at Collingwood, but there may be a different suitor for him.

“At his best, and I’ve seen it first hand, he can singlehandedly win a game as he did in 2018 in the Prelim.”

The delisted free agency period will run between November 3rd and November 9th.
