Sydney are one of the surprise packets of season 2021, with their meteoric rise up the table being one of the feel-good stories of the year.

The amount of talent that the side possess now is truly frightening and if they are this far up the table with most of their youngsters still relatively fresh-faced, imagine what they will look like even two years down the track.

Still, some departures this year could see the side with a few holes in it and with this the club may need to look to the market to find solutions.

We continue our โ€˜Five trade targets for every clubโ€™ series withย Sydney.ย 

The idea of these stories is to identify potentially gettable targets who could fill roles, not just link every club to superstars, the likes of Marcus Bontempelliย orย Patrick Cripps.

In no particular order, here are five players which the Swans recruitment team would do well to target and potentially poach.

4. Lachie Schultz

Another Docker is small forward Lachie Schultz. Despite his size, the 23-year-old is a potent threat down forward that, if utilised in the correct way, can be devastating.

The mature-aged recruit has only played 38 games at the top level, but has potential to be a true star should he play his cards right.

Schultz so far in season 2021 has booted 17 goals in 15 games for Fremantle, but his ability around the goals is what makes him tick.

He is currently averaging 4.4 marks and 1.3 marks on lead per game, above average and elite figures respectively that shows the danger he poses inside 50 by finding space.

Despite this, Schultz is out-of-contract at the conclusion of this season, meaning he is available to be traded should he not want to continue on at the Dockers.

If John Longmire wants another small forward to complement the lethal Swans attack, then Lachie Schultz could be his man.
