Dane Swan
Dane Swan (born 25 February 1984) is a professional Australian rules footballer currently playing for the Collingwood Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).〔("Dane Swan – Statistics" ). Retrieved on 3 August 2009〕 Swan was drafted at number 58 in the 2001 AFL Draft, and made his debut two years later. Despite having a slow start to his career, being unable to hold down a spot in the side for the bulk of his first three seasons, Swan has since become recognised as one of the greatest midfielders of the modern era. Since his breakout season in 2007, Swan has become a premiership player, a Brownlow Medallist, a three-time Copeland Trophy recipient, and a five-time All-Australian, and in 2010, won the Leigh Matthews Trophy as the league's Most Valuable Player. Swan known as a "Disposal Magnet" and a "Prolific Ball Winner" currently averages 26.96 disposals over his whole career (as of Round 22, 2015) which is number 1 in the AFL since stats were recorded, narrowly averaging 0.08 more disposals than Greg Williams.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Disposals )〕
==Early life==
Swan was born in Melbourne to Billy and Deidre Swan. He is a direct descendent of Thomas Flanagan, an Irish convict transported to Australia in 1849.〔Flanagan, Martin (7 September 2013). ("Relatively curious about Dane Swan" ), ''The Age''. Retrieved 12 October 2013.〕 His father Billy Swan was a highly decorated footballer in the VFA, winning the J. J. Liston Trophy twice and playing a league record 302 games with Port Melbourne and Williamstown from 1976–1993.〔Karen Lyon, 29 June 2003. ("Refreshed Pies chalk up impressive win" ). The Age, Retrieved on 3 August 2009〕
He grew up playing junior football for the Westmeadows Football Club in the Essendon District Football League, and attended St. Bernard's College in Essendon before playing his under 18 football with the Calder Cannons in the TAC Cup.
Swan's performances at the Calder Cannons were ordinary and he was perceived by some recruiters to be a larrikin with questionable kicking accuracy and work ethic, however Collingwood showed an interest in him as a potential late maturer in the mould of his father and took him at the relatively low draft pick (#58) in the 2001 AFL Draft.
