Mega AFL trade approved as 10 draft picks and a player involved image

The first so-called 'mega trade' has been approved with Fremantle, West Coast, and Brisbane trading picks, with two-time premiership Lion Brandon Starcevich ending up at the Eagles.

There are 10 draft picks involved, while Starcevich is the only player involved in the deal, with the Lion ending up at the Eagles after requesting a trade after their premiership-winning season.

The now former Lion player has played 132 games for the club since being selected with pick 18 in the 2017 national draft.

He has also downplayed concerns about his playing future after receiving another concussion during the grand final against Geelong this year.
