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.

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

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...
They're technically only DFA in the year that they get delisted. That's the year they join in the DFA period. After that they're UFA and join during the free agency window

You would think they could at least order them decently FFS also they are over estimating some clubs and underestimating others

Just the standard overrating of Essendon pre season.

I'd have Richmond, West Coast and North as bottom 4. North might not be that far away from breaking out of the bottom 4.

Essendon and Saints as also rans.

Everyone else a chance for finals.

Agreed but Port for example really shouldn't be in "Flag contender" but finals contender group
