On day two, Ben McKay officially joined Essendon and James Harmes was traded to the Bulldogs. What does day three hold? Follow our live coverage to find out.
From yesterday: Melbourne have knocked back Sydney’s opening offer for wantaway ruckman Brodie Grundy.Two industry sources indicated the Demons believed the offer was far too modest and shut it down emphatically.The Grundy deal promises to be one of the most interesting across the 10 days of this year’s trade period, as the dual All-Australian seeks to join his third club in as many seasons.
Collingwood traded the 29-year-old to the Demons last year in exchange for pick 27, as well as agreeing to pay a portion of his contract annually for the remaining five years.Grundy played just once for Melbourne after round 17, with his much-touted ruck partnership with Max Gawn failing to flourish.The Swans’ selections this year, once North Melbourne accept pick three as compensation for Ben McKay, are 12, 25, 33, 46 and 54.
