Geelong accepted Brisbane’s offer of a future third rounder, which they had received from Geelong in a pick swap earlier in the trade period.
Cockatoo has signed a two-year deal at the Lions.
The former No.10 pick had become even more steadfast in recent days that he wanted to head north.
Despite Geelong telling him a deal may not get done, the injury-prone but talented player was determined to be traded.
The Cats had offered a one-year deal on a base salary and were happy to keep him.
As reported by foxfooty.com.au earlier in the week, a stumbling block between the Lions and Geelong had been Brisbane’s lack of selections between Picks 19 and 53.
But Melbourne’s swap of picks with the Lions – which included a future third rounder – allowed Brisbane list boss Dom Ambrogio to offer it up to his counterpart Stephen Wells.
And late on Wednesday morning, with less than 36 hours remaining, it was accepted and processed.
Cockatoo played 34 games for Geelong but has not been seen at the senior level since 2018.
He is managed by the same agent – Tim Lawrence – who orchestrated Lincoln McCarthy’s move to the Lions and Lachie NealePLAYERCARDSTART11Lincoln Mccarthy
