COLLINGWOOD has lost faith in under performing ruckman Cameron Wood, chopping the first-round pick as part of another five list changes.
The Pies also delisted untried ruckman Jon Ceglar, pint-sized forwards Kirk Ugle and Luke Brown and former Melbourne big-bodied midfielder Simon Buckley.
Wood finished with 64 games after costing the Pies pick 14 in the 2007 draft.
Collingwood sent that pick to Brisbane in exchange for Wood, who was initially drafted with pick No. 18.
The Demons seized the 2007 ontraded pick and snared co-captain Jack Grimes.

Pies coaching strategist Rodney Eade recently hinted Wood could be on the way out, declaring his season had been disappointing.
The Pies are hoping 209cm beanpole Jarrod Witts can break through for senior action in 2013 as veteran Darren Jolly nears the end of his career.
Nathan Buckley's side has now turned over 13 players this off-season, headed by trade targets Chris Dawes (Melbourne), Sharrod Wellingham (West Coast) and young defender Tom Young (Western Bulldogs).
"All of the boys did what they could to give themselves a chance and they were good people to have around the club," Pies football manager Geoff Walsh said.
"People don't always see what sacrifices are made to try to forge an AFL career. We thank all of them for that effort and wish them well."
Collingwood holds prized picks 18, 19 and 21 in next month's national draft and will also dominate the rookie draft.
The Pies cleared their rookie list last month and the AFL has reduced the amount of space on rookie lists for next season.
