COLLINGWOOD has delisted six players following the end of its 2026 campaign, including former second-round pick Jakob Ryan and ex-cricketer Wil Parker.
Lachie Sullivan, who has played 26 senior games but just two this year, has also been let go along with mid-season draftee Mitch Podhajski, defender Joel Cochran and ruck Iliro Smit.
WHO'S CALLED IT QUITS 2026's retirements and delistings
Parker played 14 AFL games over three seasons after joining as a Category B rookie following his cricket career with Victoria.
Ryan, the No.28 pick in 2022, played his one and only AFL game in 2023, while mature-ager Podhajski played twice at AFL level after being picked up in May's mid-season draft.
Neither Cochran, pick 47 in 2024, and Smit, a mid-season recruit, managed to play at the top level during their time at the club.
"On behalf of everyone at Collingwood, we would like to sincerely thank Joel, Wil, Mitch, Jakob, Iliro and Lachie for their dedication and contribution to our Football Club," list boss Justin Leppitsch said.
"Each of them has played an important role across both our AFL and VFL programs, and they should be incredibly proud of the commitment, professionalism and character they have shown throughout their time in black and white."
