GWS Giants

"The GIANTS are an exciting club with a great future and I couldn't be happier to be moving across Sydney to join them," Mumford said. "They have a talented young midfield and it's a great opportunity to help them go to the next level and achieve on-field success." Mumford, 27, played 22 games for the Swans in 2013 and stands at 198 centremetres and weighs 104 kilograms. Head Coach Leon Cameron said it was a great coup for the GIANTS. "This shows that high calibre players are prepared to join our club in Western Sydney and Canberra and we are delighted that Shane has agreed to join us," Cameron said. "We said we needed to target an experienced ruckman and with the addition of Shane we have landed a quality player. "As our number one ruckman he will take some of the pressure off Jonathan Giles while we continue to develop Andrew Phillips and Tom Downie and gives us depth in our ruck stocks. "We have every confidence in our list management strategy and will continue to be aggressive in the trade period to acquire the experienced players we need at the GIANTS."
