Sydney Swans General Manager - Football, Dean Moore said he was pleased that the Swans were able to improve their late draft order and wished Spangher all the best at Hawthorn.
“One of our objectives during this trade period was to enhance our position in the draft order and we’re pleased to see Campbell and Matt given opportunities at new Clubs,” he said.
“Matt has been a popular player since joining the Club late in 2010 and we wish him well as he returns home to Melbourne."
