Massimo D’Ambrosio is at Hawthorn after a surprise deal was done in the dying minutes of the AFL trade period.

Pick No. 61 + F4 seals the deal for the Bombers.

AND THE DEAL IS DONE!

Xavier Duursma is a Bomber and Brandon Zerk-Thatcher will be at Port Adelaide next season.

Zerk-Thatcher, pick 73 and two future fourth-round picks go to the Power in exchange for Duursma.

It appears Essendon has blinked first.

It looks like deal is set to come.

But you didn’t miss anything.
