North Melbourne can confirm Flynn Appleby and Sam Skinner have been advised they will not be offered a position on the playing list through the pre-season supplemental selection period.
North GM football Brady Rawlings said it was a tough decision.
“These decisions are never easy to make,” Rawlings said.
“We thank Sam and Flynn for their time and dedication to the club and wish them luck in the future.”
