has decided to pursue his rights as an unrestricted free agent and is leaving to return home to Victoria."

“Kyle is a quality individual who has consistently given his all both on and off the field during his eight seasons with the Club,” Kelly said.

“He has worked tirelessly with the Adelaide Crows Foundation and will always be a part of the Crows family.

“We wish Kyle, Emily and Hazel all the very best for their move to Victoria.”

3 Free agents in a single year, is that an AFL record assuming Hartigan actually gets someone to take him?

has decided to pursue his rights as an unrestricted free agent and is leaving to return home to Victoria.

Hartigan has played 113 AFL games after being selected by the Crows as a mature-age player in the 2012 rookie draft.

“Kyle is a quality individual who has consistently given his all both on and off the field during his eight seasons with the Club,” Kelly said.

“He has worked tirelessly with the Adelaide Crows Foundation and will always be a part of the Crows family.

“We wish Kyle, Emily and Hazel all the very best for their move to Victoria.”

Best of luck Kyle, served us well as a 2nd KPD for a few years

 

[Danger in Texas]

Mods please merge lol

 

[jackster83]

Gave us pretty good service for a rookie pick, despite being maligned.

This is for the best though, as the queue of defenders behind him is getting longer.

 

[Scorpus]

This will give us no choice but to play our young KPDs like McAsey and Worrell.

Excellent decision

Good luck to Hartigan, we picked him up as a rookie and he has been more than serviceable. Not nearly as bad as some on here seem to think he is.

 

[ams4crows]

Much maligned but very serviceable, good luck Harto at your next club.

This means we will be developing our youth, so great news for Butts McAsey and Worrell.... Maybe DGB is on the cards??

 

[Shaz2012]

My sincere thanks to Kyle for the service he has given us.

Well done for making it to free agency and wish him all the best at his new club.

GWS says hello.

 

[Peter Doherty]

Unlikely to receive compensation for Hartigan due to age. Other players his age haven't generated compo picks.

 

[Geoffa32]

Great for both parties.

He is a good Full Back, we don't need two of the same age.

Jordan Butts needs to play as many games as possible now.

He's only 28....

heck, if we get band 5 that is a 3rd round pick? - points for Borlace who will take over his place in the squad

This is turning into a pretty good day

Yep! The more merrier!

I agree with all that. He has done his job well.

I think again this is a win / win even without compensation. I doubt we could offer more than a year. I am sure next season there will be times where we could of done with the backup but I think it is time to move on.

 

[Gets!]

Great bloke and right move for all parties.

 

[Peter Doherty]

Mitch Cleary saying 3 year deal to Hawthorn. Maybe compo is still in play.

The older players in the past who have not generated compensation, how long were their deals?

 

[ltdamn]

Best news I've had all day. Solid bloke but never going to win a premiership here and we're never going to develop a finals-capable backline with him holding up a spot back there.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

He's only 28....

same as Cameron almost

 

[Scorpus]

I'd be expecting a third round pick if Hawthorn are putting up a 3 year deal

 

[The Texan]

How does this affect our free agent compensation? Is it still the net loss of free agents that influences the compensation or is each free agent separate?
Surely gets pick 2 over the line
