traded for Pick 11 and the Bombers receiving two second-round choices.

Under the deal, which is understood to have been secured on Thursday, the Bombers will give up the prized Pick 11 for Smith, but receive GWS’ Pick 24 and a future second-round choice (2018) in return.

GWS would also receive a later pick, probably Essendon’s future (2018) third rounder.
