The Sydney Swans have been informed that Jed Lamb has declined the club’s offer of a new deal and has now asked to join GWS.

Lamb, 21, played 12 games with the Swans in three seasons. He was a first round draft pick in the 2010 National Draft.

Swans General Manager – Dean Moore said it’s disappointing that Lamb has decided to pursue other opportunities.  

“We put what we thought was a fair offer to Jed but he’s decided to take a more lucrative deal at GWS,” Moore said.

“We will now work with GWS to ensure a trade can get finalised before Friday’s deadline.”
