Gold Coast midfielder and former No.1 draft pick, David Swallow has re-signed with the Suns until the end of the 2019 season.

Swallow, whoย failed to play a senior game in 2016 and managed just one game in 2015 due to ongoing knee troubles, had been linked with a move away from the club throughout the season.

However, the 24-year-old opted to re-commit to the Suns, citing his passion for his teammates as a big reason for his decision.

โ€œThe Gold Coast Suns mean so much to me, I love the club, my teammates, coaches, fans and the Gold Coast and Iโ€™m rapt to be continuing my career here,โ€ he said.

โ€œI am excited as anyone about 2017, we have recruited so well, I am super impressed with the new players who have joined the club and the boys are training the house down.

โ€œThe last couple of seasons have been challenging for me on a personal level and I appreciate the support I have received from all of you during this time.

โ€œThis is probably a strange thing to say, because many players hate the thought of the long hard yards of pre-season training, but I am really enjoying being back out on the track.

Swallow has played a total of 79 games in six seasons with the Suns.
