Chris Hyde...why was he delisted in 2002?

[Ghost of Punt Road]

Does anyone remember the reason the Tigers delisted him? Obviously is was some ploy to re-draft him, but I can't think why it neede to be done this way.

He has to be the best player for us that the Tiges have ever sacked!

we needed to delist a certain number of players to fit in with afl regulations. he was one of them, but on draft day they decided to use a late pick to re-draft him.

Yes, i believe that he was still under contract. So if any other club picked him up they would have had to take over that.
