RICHMOND has traded for Fremantle winger Nathan O'Driscoll in a fast-moving deal for a fourth-round pick.
O'Driscoll, 24, played 55 games for the Dockers over six seasons, including 17 this year, but fell out of the team after the qualifying final loss to Hawthorn.

He will join a rebuilding Richmond side in need of experience to complement the host of draftees selected over the past three seasons.
O'Driscoll joins the Tigers on a three-year deal, the same length of contract that was on offer from the Dockers before he decided to explore his options.
The Western Bulldogs had some interest in O'Driscoll but that cooled after the Dogs landed Zak Butters on a lucrative free agency move.
He was drafted at pick No.27 in the 2020 AFL Draft. His brother, Aiden, was drafted by the Bulldogs at pick No.55 in the 2023 draft but was forced to retire in May the following year, without making his debut, after suffering a serious concussion during pre-season training.
