Jay Nash Biography

New Port Adelaide recruit Jay Nash says he feels he has a lot to offer the Power after struggling for senior games at the Bombers.

"Essendon had a stack load of injuries in 2008, so I played a lot of footy and played pretty consistently," Nash said.

"I played a couple of games early this year, but found my way out of the team and couldn't get back in. There are some areas of my game that I need to work on that I didn't improve enough in.

"It was tough, but I'm just looking forward to coming over here."

Port Adelaide onballer Shaun Burgoyne will join Hawthorn next season as part of a four-club trade.

The deal will also sees Hawk forward Mark Williams sign a three-year deal with Essendon while Bomber Jay Nash moves to Port Adelaide.

Port Adelaide also receive two first-round draft picks: No.9 (from Hawthorn) and 16 (from Essendon, on-traded by Hawthorn).

Geelong, the fourth club involved in the trade, will swap draft pick 33 in exchange for three additional picks. The Cats took draft selections 40 and 56 from Port Adelaide, and 42 from Essendon.
