Curtis Taylor is among four players delisted by North Melbourne on Friday.
The 76-gamer was a regular member of the Kangaroos’ team across 2021-23 and re-signed for two years after a career-best campaign on the wing in 2022.
But his time at the AFL club has come to an end with that contract following just eight appearances this season, including the last two as the sub.

“Curtis became a popular member of the playing group across his six seasons at North Melbourne,” North football boss Todd Viney said.
“We thank him for all his efforts and dedication to our program during his time here.”
Bigoa Nyuon, Tyler Sellers and Hamish Free were also told they would not be offered contracts for 2025.
Nyuon played three games for North in his one and only season at the club after switching from Richmond.
Sellers, a late addition to the list before the season opener, made his debut in Round 5 and made one further appearance.
Rookie draftee Free spent two years as a VFL regular without breaking through for a senior debut.
“We thank Bigoa, Tyler and Hamish for all their efforts and dedication during their respective time at the club,” Viney said.
“It’s always tough having to make these kinds of decisions, and we wish all four men well for the future.”
North’s first delistings have been announced after the best and fairest awards were held last weekend, with the total number of list changes so far now at six.
Hugh Greenwood and Liam Shiels retired at the end of the season.
The Kangaroos previously announced new contracts for six players.
Will Phillips, Robert Hansen Jr and Finnbar Maley signed on for 2025 while Toby Pink triggered a one-year extension after playing 15 games in his first season with the club.
First-year players Wil Dawson and Riley Hardeman were already under contract for next year but will now stick around until at least the end of 2026.
Meanwhile, West Coast premiership player Jack Darling has requested a trade to North Melbourne.
