ADELAIDE'S Nick Joyce was one of 13 casualties yesterday as the AFL clubs submitted their final lists ahead of the November 22 national draft.
A case can be mounted that he was the unluckiest.
The Crows had no intention of cutting Joyce, but was forced to because Kurt Tippett remains on the list as he waits to nominate for the December 11 pre-season draft.
Brogan, similarly to Joyce, was affected by the Tippett situation.
GWS is likely to redraft the Port Adelaide premiership ruckman if the Giants don't pick up Tippett.
Adelaide has assured Joyce and his management that the club's hand was forced, and that it would do everything in its power to rectify the situation by picking him up again.
He still has a year to run on his contract.
Crows list manager David Noble said the club had been painted into a corner because of circumstances it could not control.
"It was not the club's intention to delist Nick at this time but because Kurt Tippett remains on our primary list, we had to delist another player by today's deadline ahead of next Thursday's national draft," Noble said.
"(But) it is our intention to redraft Nick at the earliest opportunity post the AFL Commission's findings.
"The club is working closely with Nick's management and discussing the variety of options, with Nick's welfare being of the highest importance."
Joyce, 19, was taken by the Crows at pick 46 in the 2011 AFL national draft.
He made his SANFL league debut this year with Woodville-West Torrens.
Joyce is a 185cm left-footer who represented SA with distinction at under-18 level in 2011.
He did not play an AFL game in his first year at West Lakes.
