The GIANTS have received pick 28 in the 2017 NAB AFL Draft from Carlton in exchange for midfielder Matthew Kennedy.

GIANTS List Manager Craig Cameron: “Matthew wanted to explore his options and we think this trade satisfies all parties involved.”
“We wish Matthew all the best for the future and thank him for commitment over his two years at the GIANTS.”
The GIANTS hold picks 11, 27, 28, 65, 57 and 89 in the 2017 NAB AFL Draft as well as a 2018 round two draft selection from Fremantle and a 2018 round three draft selection from Essendon.
