Kol played for Geelong Football League club Lara and the Geelong Under-19s before making his VFL senior debut in 1983. He kicked 22 goals from 18 games in 1983, to finish second behind Terry Bright in the club goal-kicking table.[2] His twin brother, Nigel Kol, was also at Geelong in 1983 but they would appear together just once, against Sydney at Kardinia Park in round eight.[2]
From 1984 to 1986 Kol played less than half of Geelong's games but had a strong season in 1987, making 16 appearances and averaged 20 disposals a game.[2] He polled seven votes in the 1987 Brownlow Medal count, with all his votes coming in four consecutive rounds.[2]
