Tony Armstrong clear to join Collingwood after being cut by Sydney Swans Tony Armstrong is looking for a third club after stints at Adelaide and Sydney. COLLINGWOOD is expected to pick up Tony Armstrong after he was cut by his second club today. Armstrong, who was traded to the Swans from Adelaide at the end of 2011 for forward Lewis Johnston, was today delisted in Sydney's final list change before next month's national draft. The Magpies indicated during trade week they were keen to recruit the running defender and they can now add him as a delisted free agent, or wait for the pre-season and rookie drafts. Armstrong, 24, played 15 games in two seasons as a Swan and was part of Australia's Indigenous All-Stars team that was thrashed by Ireland in the International Rules Series. Another member of the Australian team, Essendon's Alwyn Davey, was also delisted today. The Swans have cut eight players including retirees Jude Bolton, Marty Mattner and Mitch Morton and trades Shane Mumford, Andrejs Everitt and Jesse White. Alex Brown was also not offered a new contract. Rookies Brandon Jack and Dane Rampe have been promoted to the senior list and the Swans also added former Hawk star Lance Franklin. The club has two new rookies - Patrick Mitchell (international) and Lloyd Perris (NSW scholarship). The Swans hold selections 15, 32, 35, 44, 53 and 71 at next month's draft.
