GREATER Western Sydney has axed wingman Cooper Hamilton after eight games for the club.

Hamilton, 20, joined the Giants via the Rookie Draft in 2021, but struggled to earn a regular spot.

WHO'S CALLED IT QUITS 2024's retirements and delistings

His eight AFL games came across 2022 and 2023, and he became a regular in viral videos published by the club's social media team.

"It's always a tough time of the year when we need to say farewell to good people, but unfortunately we didn't have a list spot for Cooper moving forward," Giants executive general manager of football Jason McCartney said.

"Cooper has been a great addition to our football program and must also be commended for his involvement within our industry-leading media team.

"We thank Cooper for his services to the club and wish him all the best for whatever is next."
