Swans premiership ruckman Shane Mumford has accepted an offer to join cross town rivals, the Greater Western Sydney GIANTS.

One of the game's premier ruckmen, Mumford has played 100 AFL games and was a member of the Swans 2012 premiership side.

The GIANTS will now work to facilitate a trade for the out of contract ruckman when the AFL Trade Period starts next week or secure him through the AFL pre-season draft.

Mumford said he was excited to be joining the GIANTS for the next three years.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, a second round pick will get it done.

Good get i think, anyone think he might become more fantasy relevant without having to share with Pyke?

He's going to be very fantasy relevant, he'll be their No.1 ruck. Will be priced at a 79 average iirc.

He could be a very good buy next year. Has a huge ceiling and can have some big games. Depends how they use him and Giles next year. I'm not really sure, does Giles play well as a forward?

giles is a pretty decent forward, a solid mark and is really accurate.

Pretty sure he's had a couple of 4 goal games...

[Ziplock]

there were a couple of games, especially last year, where if we'd had  2 of giles, we would have won them...
