Carlton hard nut Mitch Robinson appears most likely to end up in Brisbane with the Lions as a delisted free agent.

The Lions are understood to be keenest on the delisted Blues midfielder with at least one other club believed to have some interest. The Lions are yet to make a contract offer for Robinson who was blindsided by his delisting by Carlton last month.

Like many delisted players, or those expected to be delisted, there was little interest in Robinson during the trade period with clubs believing that if they wanted the player they could secure him as a delisted free agents without needing to trade.

The Blues are likely to secure delisted Sydney Swans half back flanker Matthew Dick. A third-round draft pick in 2012 the 19-year-old Dick was cut from the Swans list without making his debut but is seen to have a good upside.
