MELBOURNE has finalised its list ahead of this month's national draft by axing veteran defender Nathan Carroll.
Carroll played 71 games for the Demons over the past six seasons but he fell out of favour with the club following a series of off-field incidents - the latest being an altercation with teammate Ben Holland during the club's 'Mad Monday' celebrations this season.
The 28-year-old, who was still contracted to the club for next year, has reached a settlement regarding a pay-out figure for the remainder of his contract with Melbourne and that figure will be included in the club's salary cap next year.
The axing of Carroll means the Demons will now have seven picks in the upcoming national draft.
