SHAUN Edwards move to Essendon was sparked by his belief that a return to Melbourne would help kickstart his career.

Edwards grew up in Darwin but spent four years as a boarder at Melbourne Grammar, before being taken by Greater Western Sydney as a zone selection in 2011.

He played 10 games for the Giants in his debut season, 2012, but struggled this year, managing just two games.

Speaking in Dublin on Tuesday as part of the Australian International Rules squad, the former St Marys player said he had decided to seek a trade to a Victorian club at the start of this month's Gillette AFL Player Exchange Period.
