Essendon Football Club wishes to advise rookie-listed pair Brendan Lee and Anthony Long have not been offered contracts for next season.

Lee, 25, was drafted from East Perth with pick 78 in the 2011 Rookie Draft and played two senior games for the Bombers in 2012.

Long, 21, was drafted to the Bombers with selection 33 in the 2009 AFL Draft but chronic injuries prevented him from playing a senior game.

The Club would like to thank Brendan and Anthony for their contributions and wishes them all the best for the future.

Essendon will communicate any further changes to the playing list if and when they arise.
