GOLD Coast star Jared Brennan says a lack of commitment was behind his axing from the Suns line-up late in the 2012 campaign.

The mercurial 28-year-old said he'd spent the off-season contemplating his future at AFL level and even considered walking away from the game.

But after making up his mind to keep playing, Brennan says he's fully committed to give his best to the Suns in the year ahead.

"It hit hard at the time, but there was only two weeks left so my mind was off football then," Brennan said today.

"The biggest thing was whether I wanted to play football again, I wasn't sure I wanted to keep playing at the highest level.

"Whether I had the passion to play. It was looking pretty grim there for a while so I went away, had a chat to my wife and my family, had a think about what we wanted to do with our lives and whether football was going to be a part of that."

A father of three who didn't want to uproot his family from their Queensland home, Brennan said a commitment from the Suns that they weren't looking to trade the former Brisbane Lion helped him commit to his football future.

He said in the end he realised he would have regrets if he walked away from his career.

"It was refreshing more than anything," he said.

"If I'm gonna have a crack at this I'm going to give it everything whereas last year I was probably giving it 30 per cent to 40 per cent of the effort that was needed.

"See what happens at the end of it."
