Nick Blakey traded to North Melbourne after Pullman scandal
Nick Blakey is leaving the Sydney Swans and joining North Melbourne following his involvement in the Pullman Hotel scandal in Melbourne in August, where he was one of five players suspended for breaching the club's behavioural standards. The completed trade sees North Melbourne receive Blakey plus pick 52 and a future second-rounder, while Sydney receives pick 6, pick 47, and three future picks. Blakey has reportedly signed an eight-year contract with North Melbourne worth more than $11 million, making him one of the highest-paid players in the AFL.
