Hello Dimma, goodbye Mabior?

“GOLD Coast goalkicker Mabior Chol shapes as a key forward trade option for clubs this year despite having two years to run on his deal at the Suns.

Chol joined the Suns from Richmond at the end of 2021 on a four-year deal as a free agent, kicking 44 goals from 22 games in his first year at the club.

But he has been squeezed out this season, playing eight senior games and kicking 10 goals while spending most of the season in the VFL for the Suns.

With Ben King the Suns' spearhead, Levi Casboult set to play on and Jed Walter to arrive as the club's next key forward threat with an early draft pick, Chol's spot in the Gold Coast line-up could be challenged.

The 26-year-old played 31 games for Richmond under Damien Hardwick, who has joined as the Suns' senior coach for the next six seasons.” www.afl.com.au
4 years was always ridiculous for Chol.

And this year he reverted to type after kicking 43 goals from the goal square in 2022.

Not as silly as the Stewart option being mentioned.
Stewart would literally cost nothing both in trade and in salary. He played KPD in a losing final :mhihi.

Chol may not cost a lot as far as trade currency, but you would imagine his salary will need to be paid at least partially (he's currently on a minimum of $450k).

Has never played with the desire required at the top level.
He would do OK in the Queensland league.
GC might be forced to keep him, no club will pay 450k for him,

Very lazy player. Always skirting packs, usually goal side for the cheap goals. Doesn't play as a tall. A big no.
