Former Dogs vice-captain departs, keen to continue AFL career (AFL)

Mitch Wallis has been delisted but he hasn't given up on continuing at the highest level.

With Josh Dunkley moving to Brisbane – plus Lachie Hunter and Josh Schache heading to Melbourne and Zaine Cordy moving to St Kilda – there was a belief that the Dogs would retain Wallis for 2023, but that hasn’t transpired. Despite his body failing him in the second half of his career, Wallis was a member of the Western Bulldogs’ leadership group in recent years and highly regarded internally for his impact on the group. Wallis underwent surgery in July and missed the closing months of his season due to a lingering problem with his foot, ultimately ending his time in the red, white and blue with 162 games next to his name.
