The AFL Trade Period officially got underway on Monday, with pen being put to paper for the first time on rumours that have bubbled under the surface for weeks.
Todd Goldstein became a Bomber through free agency on a one-year deal, while Port Adelaide winger Xavier Duursma requested a trade to Tullamarine.
The calls come as star Fremantle forward Lachie Schultz joined the production line of young Dockers that are on the search for pastures greener, reportedly requesting a trade to his native Victoria, and specifically to the newly-crowned premiers.Cornes rates the young Pie, and says his best football lies elsewhere.
“This year, Charlie Cameron, 59, he’s the league’s best small forward I think right now, Luke Bruest kicked 47, and Jamie Elliott kicked 39.“There’s two small forwards this year that kicked 40 plus, and you’ve got Jack Ginnivan sitting there, who’s 21 years of age, sitting there and waiting to be presented with an opportunity that is compelling.
Fremantle confirmed in a statement earlier this week that Schultz had requested a trade, but that he was a required player.
