After three seasons with Melbourne, Leitchville-Gunbower export Marty Hore has been delisted by the Demons.
The 25-year-old defender was informed on Monday that he and teammate Kye Declase would not be offered contracts for 2022.
Hore departs after 14 games in three seasons with the Demons, all of which he played in 2019 after joining the club as a mature-aged rookie from Collingwood VFL.
The promising defender has suffered an injury-plagued two seasons, including an ACL tear to his left knee sustained during a pre-season training session in January.
Melbourne list manager Tim Lamb thanked both players for their contributions.
“We thank both Marty and Kye for their dedication and commitment to the club,” Lamb said.
“This is always a difficult time for everyone involved and we would like to wish both players all the best for their future endeavours.”
