Greater Western Sydney forward Jeremy Finlayson has been traded to Port Adelaide in exchange for the Power's future third-round selection.

Reports emerged last month that Finlayson was keen to move to South Australia to best support his young family, with his partner hailing from Port Lincoln.

The 25-year-old will join a lethal Port Adelaide attack that boasts the likes of Charlie Dixon, Mitch Georgiades and Todd Marshall.

Finlayson has booted 90 goals from his five seasons at the Giants, including 44 majors in 2019 as Greater Western Sydney landed a Grand Final berth.

Port Adelaide could look to utilise Finlayson as a swingman in their premiership tilt, with the Sydney Hills product beginning his career as a defender.

The future third-round selection will add to the Giants' draft hand, with Greater Western Sydney currently holding picks 2, 13, 50, 68 for the 2021 National Draft.
