The Giants have confirmed Isaac Cumming will depart as a free agent in the first off-season domino to fall for the club following its straight-sets finals exit.
SEN’s Sam Edmund first reported Cumming had told the Giants of his desire to move to one of the South Australian sides in 2025.
It’s believed the 26-year old hasn’t specified whether he intends to sign with the Crows or Power, with both teams having offered four-year deals.

As Cumming is an unrestricted free agent, he can walk to whatever club he chooses without the need for a trade.
The defender has played 81 AFL games since joining GWS with Pick 20 in the 2016 National Draft.
It comes with several other Giants facing uncertain futures, including Harry Perryman, James Peatling, Nick Haynes, Lachlan Keefe, Conor Stone and Braydon Preuss all are uncontracted for 2025.
Herald Sun journalist Jon Ralph reported on Fox Footy’s On the Couch the Power have tabled Perryman a six-year deal worth as much as $850,000 per season — with GWS and Hawthorn’s offers not said to be as fruitful.
Meanwhile Haynes is expected to join the Blues as an unrestricted free agent.
Peatling, who shined during the finals series, indicated on SEN last week he was set to re-sign with the Giants amid interest from Victorian clubs.
“Everything is moving in the right direction,” the midfielder said.
“We are just taking our time with it, we wanted to focus on the finals and me playing consistent football because that’s something I haven’t done yet.
“Everything is trending in the right direction, and I love where this club is at so, hopefully we can get something done soon.”
MORE TO COME.
