HAWTHORN will be forced to wait until the dying minutes of this afternoon's free agency period to learn if it has kept long-kicking wingman Clinton Young.
The Hawks admit they have no idea if Young will leave, given he is weighing interest from Essendon and Port Adelaide ahead of the 5pm deadline.
Collingwood has said it is out of the race for Young, but the Hawks still believe he could join the Magpies.
He must make a decision today because Hawthorn will not delist him on October 29's first list lodgment deadline, which would make him an unrestricted free agent.
Hawks fullback Stephen Gilham is considering a move, but given he is not a free agent he has a week to consider interest from Greater Western Sydney.
While Young is in demand, Carlton's Bret Thornton heads a list of free agents who will not be taken today so must wait until they are delisted on October 29 to throw themselves back into the free market.
Thornton has met with Gold Coast but, given he won't be selected before today's first free agency cut-off, he is still seen as a Carlton player.
His task becomes harder after he is delisted, because every delisted player is automatically an unrestricted free agent, regardless of age.
The veteran defender must vie with fellow talls such as Melbourne's former first round draft pick Lucas Cook, who if delisted would be chased by several clubs.
Carlton free agent Jordan Russell will also be delisted by the Blues.
Essendon unrestricted free agent David Hille is yet to commit to another one-year deal with the Dons.
Bomber forward Scott Gumbleton has a week to weigh up his options to stay, or join the Western Bulldogs.
