Richmond has secured GWS midfielder Jacob Hopper after the two clubs agreed to a trade on Tuesday afternoon.
For acquiring Hopper’s services, the Tigers sent the Giants a future first-round pick and pick 31, while Richmond secured picks 53 and 63 from GWS.
Contradicting initial reports, ruckman Ivan Soldo is not involved in the deal. It remains to be seen whether he’ll remain at Tigerland beyond this season.
Hopper played 114 games for GWS including seven in 2022 where he averaged 19.3 disposals and 4.9 clearances.
The on-baller was taken with pick No. 7 in the 2015 National Draft and will join teammate Tim Taranto at Punt Road in 2023.
