Sydney young gun Isaac Heeney says morale around the club remains high despite the possible departures of a trio of teammates.

Premiership player Dan Hannebery and speedster Gary Rohan have both requested to be traded back to Victoria, while defender Nic Newman has been heavily linked with a move to North Melbourne.

Despite the impending exits, Heeney is confident the young talent at the Swans can step up and take the club forward.

“There’s still such a positive vibe around the club,” Heeney told SEN’s Whateley.

“Obviously they’ve got some personal reasons, hence why they’re leaving the club.

“I look at it and I’m extremely excited for next year with some young players coming through who are super talented with a lot of x-factor.

Heeney enjoyed a solid season for The Bloods, averaging 20.4 disposals and five tackles a game from his 22 appearances in 2018, while also taking out the Mark of the Year award.
