The Sydney Swans have completed a three-way trade with Carlton and the Gold Coast ahead of next month’s AFL Draft.

The Swans traded pick 31 for Carlton’s pick 48 and a future third-round pick. 

The club then on-traded the future pick to the Gold Coast Suns in exchange for selection 37 in this year’s draft.

The trades have improved Sydney’s points position, which will assist the club in being able to match bids for players from the QBE Sydney Swans Academy.
