Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2024, Part 2

On that note, I cannot believe that Fremantle - a side with legitimate flag aspirations - is going for a player who has been delisted from two sides already and hasn't gone back through a state league first.

I would strongly suspect that he already had a deal lined up with freo but freo were not prepared to trade anything for him. As a non-critical player for them, port did him a favour by delisting him.

If he didn’t have a deal lined up with freo he probably stays on ports list on a lower contract.

Our COO has also just left the club to take a job at AFL House. Another Geelong plant at HQ, delicious.

Would he qualify as a DFA, having already been delisted from us?

As soon as he is delisted, yes

Yes, I was just trying to confirm that he was delisted from us. It was a rude shock to me that DFAs are always DFAs when Stengle's contract was running out...
