Caleb Poulter has been delisted for the second time in his career, after the 23-year-old was not offered a contract by the Western Bulldogs.
A former Magpie, Poulter was delisted by Collingwood at the end of the 2022 season, before he was picked up by the Bulldogs in the 2023 mid-season draft, after a successful stint with their VFL affiliate, Footscray.
Poulter would go onto play 23 games in three years at the Kennel, after 12 appearances in the black and white stripes.
The Bulldogs' executive manager Sam Power reflected on the club's decision to delist Poulter.

“It’s never easy at this time of the year as difficult list decisions are made. We thank Caleb for the valuable contribution he has made across his time at the Bulldogs,” Power told the club's website.
“We wish him all the best for the next chapter of his career and he’ll always be welcome back at Mission Whitten Oval.”
Poulter signs off his Dogs career with a VFL premiership, helping Footscray to a flag last month against Southport.
He is the second Dog to have not been offered a contract for 2026, with the club's only ever Norm Smith medallist Jason Johannisen also being axed.
