Greater Western Sydney have joined cross-town rivals Sydney in expressing interest in out-of-favour Fremantle forward Jesse Hogan.
The Giants are set to lose Jeremy Cameron to Geelong in the upcoming exchange period and are now on the hunt for a key forward to fill the void.
GWS are already believed to be interested in Melbourne swingman Tom McDonald, with SEN's Sam Edmund reporting the Sydney club also have their attentions on Hogan.
“Fremantle has told clubs that he’s available and gettable for a trade,” Edmund said.
“Whether those clubs are willing to go there is the question we can’t answer at the moment. I’m told GWS will ask the question to sound him out and whether he’d be interested in coming over east.
“He’s really struggled to make an impact at Fremantle, he’s a curious case.”
Hogan has played just 19 games and booted 18 goals since joining Fremantle at the end of the 2018 season.
