The Sydney Swans are reportedly keen on bringing Adelaide's Riley Knight and Brisbane's Lewis Taylor to the club, with both players out-of-contract.

According to AFL.com.au's Mitch Cleary, the Swans are in the market to replace the outgoing Tom Papley, who has requested a trade to Carlton.

“They [Sydney] are already planning for life potentially after Tom Papley,” Cleary said on AFL Trade Radio.

“They’re set to meet with Riley Knight from the Adelaide Football Club. Riley Knight has interest from Sydney.

“The other player that the Swans have shown some form of interest in is Lewis Taylor from the Lions.

“He’s a former AFL Rising Star winner … and is being courted in some respects by the Swans.”

Riley Knight has played 54 games for the Crows, including 15 this year, but is yet to sign a new deal with the club.

Taylor, a former Rising Star winner, has featured just five times for Brisbane this season, as the club marched into their first finals appearance since 2009.

The Swans have also been heavily linked to Essendon key forward Joe Daniher.
