Port Adelaide will secure Jared Polec with a three-club draft picks swap A file picture of Jared Polec during a Brisbane Lions training session at the Gabba. PORT Adelaide will not be asking a player to sacrifice himself to the AFL trade market to secure midfielder Jared Polec from Brisbane. The Power is closing in on a three-club deal that involves only draft picks and Polec. And there is more than one AFL club ready to piggyback with Port Adelaide on the trade. The incentive for the third club is to simply improve its position in next month's AFL national draft that is considered shallow and reaching only up to pick No.30. Port Adelaide currently has draft picks Nos. 13 and 30 in the first two rounds of the player lottery (a sequence that will change on Friday when compensation picks are assigned for the free agents who have swapped clubs). Brisbane could finish with a top-20 draft pick for Polec who was recruited from SANFL club Woodville-West Torrens in the 2011 draft at No. The Power would still keep two draft picks in the current top-30. The incentive for the AFL club that helps this unfold is advancing into the first round of the national draft. All this further frustrates Adelaide that on Tuesday night was convinced Polec would accept terms with the Crows. Adelaide wants its impending trade of club champion Bernie Vince to return Melbourne's compensation pick for losing Colin Sylvia to Fremantle as a free agent. This pick - between 21 and 25 - could have trumped Port in its bidding with Brisbane. But the Power is now closing out Adelaide from a late move on Polec by delivering Brisbane a top-20 draft pick-a call the Crows cannot find while they deal with the pain of the Kurt Tippett sanctions imposed by the AFL last year. Adelaide was stripped of its first and second-round draft picks for the Tippett contract violating league rules on the salary cap and draft.
