Pedlar becomes eighth player for both Adelaide clubs
Pedlar joins Port Adelaide after six injury-plagued seasons with the Crows.
Luke Pedlar has traded the Crows for the Power on Deadline Day. Pedlar becomes just the eighth AFL player to represent both Adelaide clubs.
The 24-year-old was drafted 11th overall in 2020 but has been plagued by injury. Pedlar managed just ten matches in 2026 after falling out of favour under Matthew Nicks.
Pedlar has booted 48 goals from 49 games for the Crows across six seasons. However, he struggled to cement a spot in the best 23.
Port Adelaide gained pick 32 and a 2027 fourth-round pick tied to Richmond. Adelaide received pick 34.
Power list manager Jason Cripps said Pedlar's versatility across midfield and forward roles would add depth and toughness to the team.
