YOUNG ruckman Darcy Cameron is now a Magpie, with a straightforward deal going through on Tuesday.

Sydney has received pick No.56 in return for trading Cameron and pick No.62 to Collingwood.

Cameron, 24, has played just one game in three seasons (Sydney's shock loss to Gold Coast in 2018) after being selected as a mature-age recruit with pick No.48 in the 2016 NAB AFL Draft.

He joins the Pies on a two-year deal and has consistently performed well at NEAFL level, playing 11 games this year, averaging 22 hitouts, 17 disposals and five marks a match.

Cameron missed seven weeks this year with a quad injury.

At 205cm, he will provide good support to Brodie Grundy, with the Pies not having a clear No.2 ruckman.

"We have been keen for some time to add to our group of ruckmen and Darcy is someone we identified as a good fit for our squad," Guy said.

"We like his marking ability and think that, apart from time spent on the ball, he can develop into a presence in front of the ball. Darcy has the instincts of a natural footballer. I think he will give Nathan and the coaching group real flexibility."
