The Gold Coast Suns have made a host of changes to their list since their debut season in 2011, which included some of the biggest names in the game today.
As the Suns will always be compared to fellow new-comers GWS, it may seem that the club has seen little to no success, in terms of finals appearances.
The Suns' coaching panel and board shifted names around in hope to find the perfect balance.
However, whether it be players that have fallen out of favour or players wanting to experience success at other clubs, the Suns were made to make changes to their list, wishing it would turn out for them.
In these cases, it can be argued it did not.
Here are the 11 best players to leave the Suns:
8. Adam Saad
Known for his pace and ability to break open a game, Saad was very useful at the Suns.
He took the game on and tried to make something out of nothing.
He debuted in 2015 where he played 16 games and averaged 17 touches off the half-back.
His closing speed and determination meant his was suitable to play on crafty small forwards but also use his sprint to get away and open up the field.
Saad was a loved character by fans and teammates as most can picture taking four or five bounces down the wing and finding a target inside forward 50.
However, injury meant that Saad sat out most of 2016 as he only notched up 10 games, but was able to get right and play every game in season 2017.
The 24-year-old requested a trade home (Melb) and Essendon was his desired destination.
He featured in every game in 2018 as he averaged 17 touches over the year.
Saad has started season 2019 the way he finished the previous year.
He hasn't missed a game since 2016 and is one of the most exciting players with ball in hand.
