Brett Deledio has joined Greater Western Sydney in exchange for the Giants' 2017 future first round selection (acquired from Carlton, who acquired the pick from Geelong) and future third round selection.
โWeโre delighted that Brett has selected the Giantsย as his club of choice and feel that his experience and leadership will be invaluable,โย Giantsย General Manager Football Wayne Campbell said.
โBrett is unquestionably one of the competitionโs elite players and has shown over a long period of time an ability to play a variety of roles which we think will complement our list well.
โOur playing group has benefitted in recent years from the addition of quality experienced players like Shaw, Mumford, Johnson and Griffen and Brettโs arrival continues this trend.
โTo secure a player of Brettโs ability while also maintaining a strong position in next monthโs national draft has resulted in a very positive trade period for the club.โ
Meanwhile, Western Bulldogs midfielder Koby Stevens has joined the Saints, along with pick 61 and a future round four selection, in exchange for pickย pick 50 and St KIlda's 2017 round five pick.
โAlong with Jack Steele, weโre thrilled to bring in someone of Kobyโs calibre who will really deepen our midfield stocks,โย St Kilda Chief Operating Officer Ameet Bains said.
โWeโre confident heโll provide some physical support for our young developing midfielders, as well as players like Steven and Armitage.
โWith Kobyโs size, aggressive edge and ability to play forward we look forward to him making an impact as a Saint.โ
Former No.1 draft pick Bryce Gibbs has missed out on a trade back home to Adelaide, with the Blues and the Crows unable to come to an agreement.
