Live: Suspended Swans star may seek shock AFL trade

A suspended Sydney Swans player, Nick Blakey, may be looking to trade to another team during the AFL trade period. Reports suggest Blakey is meeting with rival clubs in an effort to find a new team. While negotiations for major deals have not progressed significantly, there has been additional reporting on Geelong's offer for Essendon's Jordan Ridley.

This offer includes a 2027 first-round pick, a 2028 second-round pick, and Jack Bowes. Blakey is believed to be evaluating his options before deciding to leave the Swans. The Swans have maintained that none of their suspended players will be leaving, and Blakey still has five years remaining on his contract with the club. The trade period continues, and the story of Blakey's potential trade remains a major focus.
